A36H24BLP

Overview

The A36H24BLP is a single-door enclosure from the Hoffman A-BLP series, designed for indoor and outdoor use. It measures 36.00 inches in length, 24.00 inches in width, and 8.00 inches in depth (914.4mm x 609.6mm x 203.2mm). Constructed from 14-gauge steel with a gray polyester metallic finish, it features a continuous hinge and three-sided clamps for secure sealing. The unit carries NEMA 4, IP66, UL Type 4, and UL 50E ratings, ensuring protection against environmental factors.

Feature Summary

• Continuous hinge design with three-sided clamping mechanism for secure door closure
• NEMA 4 and IP66 rated construction for indoor and outdoor environmental protection
• 14-gauge steel body with gray polyester metallic finish for durability

Applications

• Housing electrical and pneumatic controls
• Protecting instruments and electronic components
• Industrial control panel enclosures in harsh environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix to ensure compatibility with required ingress protection standards. Confirm that the continuous hinge and clamp configuration matches the installation requirements. Check for any regional certification requirements such as UL or CE marking before procurement. Ensure the 14-gauge thickness meets structural load specifications for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when NEMA 4 protection is required for both indoor and outdoor installations. The 36x24x8 dimensions provide ample space for standard industrial components. Consider the continuous hinge for frequent access needs compared to quarter-turn fasteners. Verify that the steel construction and coating are suitable for the specific chemical or moisture exposure levels of the deployment site.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman A-BLP series of metal enclosures. These units are engineered for robust performance in demanding industrial settings. The series offers various sizes and configurations to accommodate different control panel layouts. The A36H24BLP specifically addresses the need for larger footprint protection with high ingress resistance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other NEMA 4 enclosures of similar dimensions from the same manufacturer series. Cross-brand replacements must match the 36x24x8 internal volume and mounting hole patterns. Ensure alternative models offer equivalent 14-gauge steel thickness and IP66 rating for comparable environmental sealing.
