A483008LP

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures Inc. A483008LP is a wall-mount electrical enclosure constructed from 14-gauge mild steel. It features an external ANSI 61 gray finish and a white interior coating. The unit measures 48 inches in height, 30 inches in width, and 8 inches in depth. It includes a continuous hinge door secured by six screw-down clamps. The enclosure meets Type 12, Type 13, UL 508A, NEMA 4, 4X, and IP66 standards for indoor and outdoor use.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 14-gauge mild steel with durable powder-coated finishes
• Equipped with a continuous hinge door and six screw-down clamp latches
• Includes a small data pocket on the exterior for documentation storage
• Designed for secure wall-mount installation with stainless steel hardware

Applications

• Indoor industrial control panels requiring dust and light liquid protection
• Outdoor electrical equipment housing subject to washdown environments
• Machine tooling and automation systems needing UL 508A compliance
• Process control applications requiring Type 12 and Type 13 ingress protection

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required mounting hardware matches the specific wall surface conditions. Confirm that the internal component layout fits within the 8-inch depth constraint. Ensure that the continuous hinge mechanism aligns with the intended access frequency. Check that the ANSI 61 color code meets facility identification requirements. Validate that the 14-gauge steel thickness satisfies structural load expectations for the installed equipment weight.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high ingress protection is required for both indoor and outdoor settings. The 14-gauge steel provides robust mechanical strength compared to thinner alternatives. The continuous hinge design enhances durability under frequent door operation. Consider the 8-inch depth as a limiting factor for large components. The Type 12 and Type 13 ratings make it suitable for environments with oil, coolant, or dust exposure.

Part Context

This enclosure belongs to the Hoffman LP series of wall-mount enclosures. It is part of a standardized line designed for general-purpose electrical protection. The product line emphasizes durability through heavy-gauge steel construction. It serves as a protective barrier for sensitive electronic and electromechanical components in industrial settings.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include models with identical dimensions and rating classes. Verify that alternative units maintain the 14-gauge steel specification. Ensure replacement units offer compatible hinge and latch configurations. Confirm that the new model supports the same UL and NEMA certifications.
