A31-1207E2CTHPL2

Overview

The A31-1207E2CTHPL2 is a fiberglass enclosure from the Hoffman APO series, designed for industrial applications. It features a transparent polycarbonate door and a cast aluminum handle. The unit measures 12 inches in height, 7 inches in width, and 6 inches in depth (305mm x 178mm x 152mm). Constructed from corrosion-resistant fiberglass reinforced polyester, it provides protection against harsh environments. The enclosure includes mounting hardware and meets NEMA 4X and IP66 standards for dust and water resistance.

Feature Summary

• Transparent polycarbonate door allows visual inspection of internal components without opening
• Cast aluminum handle provides secure locking and durable operation
• Fiberglass reinforced polyester construction ensures corrosion resistance
• Sealed design protects against dust, dirt, and water ingress

Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring visual monitoring
• Outdoor electrical installations exposed to moisture
• Chemical processing equipment enclosures
• Marine or coastal machinery protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact model suffix CTHPL2 to confirm the transparent door and cast aluminum handle configuration. Ensure the required dimensions match the 12x7x6 inch specification. Check for compatibility with existing DIN rail mounts if internal component installation is planned. Confirm that the fiberglass material meets specific chemical resistance requirements for the intended environment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when visual access to internal wiring or indicators is necessary while maintaining environmental sealing. The transparent door facilitates quick troubleshooting without compromising protection ratings. Consider the fiberglass material for superior corrosion resistance compared to steel alternatives in aggressive chemical or marine settings. Verify that the compact 12x7x6 size accommodates the required electronic components.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman APO series of fiberglass enclosures, which are engineered for durability in corrosive environments. The APO line utilizes fiberglass reinforced polyester to provide lightweight yet robust protection. This specific model integrates a clear viewing window, distinguishing it from solid-door variants within the same dimensional family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other APO series models with identical dimensions but different door materials, such as those with painted steel doors. Cross-reference with nVent Hoffman part numbers for updated equivalents. Ensure any replacement maintains the NEMA 4X rating and matches the 12x7x6 footprint.
