A15R128

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures Inc A15R128 is a Type 3R screw-cover enclosure constructed from mild steel with a galvanized finish. It measures 15.00 inches in height, 12.00 inches in width, and 8.00 inches in depth (381mm x 304.8mm x 203.2mm). The body and door are both 16 gauge. Rated NEMA 3R and IP32, it provides weather resistance for outdoor applications while excluding dust protection.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 16-gauge mild steel with a galvanized finish for durability
• Features a screw-cover design for secure access
• Includes knockouts for cable entry
• Provides weather-resistant protection suitable for outdoor environments

Applications

• Outdoor wiring junctions
• Electrical component housing in exposed areas
• Industrial equipment protection against rain

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific gauge requirements and knockout configurations match the installation needs. Confirm that the IP32 rating meets environmental standards, as this model excludes dust protection. Ensure compatibility with existing mounting hardware and conduit entries. Check for any regional certification requirements such as UL or CUL listings before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when outdoor weather resistance is required but dust sealing is not critical. The 15x12x8 inch dimensions offer moderate internal volume. The screw-cover design is suitable for less frequent access compared to hinged doors. Consider the galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in humid or rainy climates.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman A Style Body series, designed for commercial and industrial use. It is distinct from NEMA 4 or 12 rated enclosures due to its lower ingress protection level. The Type 3R rating specifically targets protection against falling water and external ice formation.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other Type 3R screw-cover enclosures of identical dimensions from Hoffman or compatible manufacturers. Verify material thickness and finish specifications to ensure equivalent corrosion resistance.
