A24R126

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures A24R126 is a Type 3R screw-cover enclosure constructed from galvanized steel with a gray polyester powder-coated finish. It measures 24 inches in height, 12 inches in width, and 6 inches in depth. The unit features a drip-shield top design to prevent water ingress. It carries NEMA 3R and IP32 ratings, along with UL 50/50E and CUL approvals, making it suitable for outdoor wiring and junction applications requiring protection against rain and sleet.

Feature Summary

• Galvanized steel construction with gray polyester powder-coated finish
• Drip-shield screw cover design for outdoor weather protection
• Pre-drilled knockouts for cable entry flexibility
• Wall-mount configuration with standard mounting hardware

Applications

• Outdoor wiring junction boxes
• Protection of electrical controls in wet environments
• Industrial equipment housing requiring rain and sleet resistance
• Utility and telecommunications signal distribution points

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific NEMA rating requirement matches the application environment. Confirm that the 24x12x6 inch dimensions fit the designated installation space. Ensure compatibility with existing conduit sizes and knockout configurations. Check for any regional certification requirements such as UL or CUL depending on the final deployment location.

Selection Notes

Select this model when outdoor exposure to precipitation is expected but submersion or dust tightness is not required. Compare against Type 3R alternatives if different internal volumes are needed. Consider accessory availability for mounting brackets or internal DIN rails if additional organization is necessary for the specific control components being housed.

Part Context

This component belongs to the nVent Hoffman line of industrial enclosures designed for harsh environmental conditions. The Type 3R classification specifically targets outdoor use where protection from falling rain and sleet is critical. It serves as a standard solution for protecting low-voltage and power distribution components in exterior settings.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other manufacturers' Type 3R enclosures with identical 24x12x6 inch dimensions and screw-cover designs. Verify that alternative models maintain the same galvanized steel material and corrosion-resistant finish specifications to ensure equivalent durability in outdoor applications.
