Crestron DIN-EN-6X18-HC-5OPEN – DIN Rail Lighting Control Enclosure, 6 Rails x 18M, 5 Cover Openings

Product Overview

The Crestron DIN-EN-6X18-HC-5OPEN is a wall-mount DIN rail enclosure for Crestron lighting control modules. It provides 6 DIN rail rows at 18 module widths each and features 5 raised cover openings that allow direct physical access to installed DIN lighting modules through the closed enclosure cover. A single enclosed fire section provides Class 1 wiring separation without panel openings. The enclosure is designed for Crestron DIN-series lighting installations in residential and commercial electrical rooms where a structured, code-compliant panel housing is required.

Product Description

The DIN-EN-6X18-HC-5OPEN is constructed from 16-gauge galvanized steel with a black powder coat finish. It surface-mounts or flush-mounts to a wall and opens via a hinged cover secured with screws. The 5 cover openings accommodate DIN modules whose controls or indicators need to be accessible or visible through the closed panel cover without opening it. The 6th section of the enclosure is fully enclosed for Class 1 high-voltage wiring per code requirements, physically separating line-voltage terminations from Class 2 low-voltage control wiring sections. The enclosure accommodates Crestron DIN-series dimmer modules, relay modules, the DIN-AP4-R processor, DIN-GWDL gateway, and other DIN rail-mounted Crestron devices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the purpose of the 5 cover openings on the DIN-EN-6X18-HC-5OPEN?
A: The 5 raised cover openings allow physical access to installed DIN modules (such as override buttons, status indicators, or manual controls) without needing to open the full enclosure cover. This is useful for end-user access in installations where the panel cover remains closed during normal operation.

Q: Can this enclosure hold the DIN-AP4-R processor alongside dimmer and relay modules?
A: Yes. The DIN-EN-6X18-HC-5OPEN is designed to house the full range of Crestron DIN-series modules including dimmer modules (DIN-1DIMU4, DIN-GWDL), relay modules, the DIN-AP4-R processor, and other DIN rail-mounted devices. Module count depends on the DIN module width of each device.

Q: What is the Class 1 / Class 2 wiring separation in this enclosure?
A: The enclosed fire section (without cover openings) is designated for Class 1 line-voltage wiring terminations, which must be physically separated from Class 2 low-voltage control wiring per NEC and local electrical code. This separation is built into the enclosure design, enabling a code-compliant installation where both wiring classes are present.
