A423616LP

Overview

The Hoffman A423616LP is a wall-mount electrical enclosure constructed from mild steel, designed for indoor industrial environments. It features a Type 12 and Type 13 rating, providing protection against falling dirt, dripping non-corrosive liquids, and oil coolants. The unit measures 42 inches in height, 36 inches in width, and 16 inches in depth. The body utilizes 16-gauge steel, while the door is fabricated from 14-gauge steel. External dimensions are specified as 42x36x16 inches.

Feature Summary

• Continuous hinge cover design with screw-down clamp latches
• Seams are continuously welded and ground smooth for durability
• Includes external wall-mounting brackets for installation
• Features formed external return flanges around all edges

Applications

• Indoor industrial control panels requiring NEMA 12/13 protection
• Equipment housing subject to oil coolant exposure
• Wall-mounted installations for electrical component organization
• Environments with falling dirt or dripping non-corrosive liquids

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required internal mounting configuration matches the standard interior layout of the A423616LP. Confirm that the 42x36x16 inch dimensions fit the designated wall space. Ensure the continuous hinge mechanism aligns with the available swing clearance. Check if additional accessories, such as internal shelves or knockouts, are needed before finalizing the order.

Selection Notes

Select this model when NEMA 12/13 ratings are mandatory for indoor use. The 16-inch depth accommodates larger components compared to shallower enclosures. The continuous hinge offers superior structural integrity over quarter-turn hinges. Consider the weight capacity of the mounting surface due to the steel construction and large footprint.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman A-series line of steel enclosures. It is manufactured by nVent Hoffman. The LP suffix typically denotes specific finish or hardware configurations within the product family. It is distinct from aluminum or polycarbonate alternatives in terms of material strength and cost profile.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 42x36x16 inch Type 12 enclosures from Hoffman, such as those with different latch types. Verify compatibility with existing cutouts if replacing an older unit. Cross-brand replacements require strict dimensional verification.
