A48H3616GQRLP

Overview

The Hoffman A48H3616GQRLP is a wall-mount electrical enclosure constructed from reinforced fiberglass-reinforced polyester. It features a single hinged door with quick-release latches and measures 48.25 inches in height, 36.25 inches in width, and 16 inches in depth. The unit provides NEMA Type 4X, IP66, UL 508A, and CUL ratings for protection against corrosion, water, and dust. The exterior finish is gray.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from non-metallic fiberglass-reinforced polyester for corrosion resistance
• Features a hinged door with quick-release or padlockable latching mechanisms
• Provides NEMA Type 4X and IP66 environmental sealing
• Designed for wall-mount installation

Applications

• Industrial environments requiring corrosion-resistant housing
• Outdoor installations exposed to washdowns or harsh weather
• Electrical panel enclosures in chemical processing facilities
• Marine or coastal infrastructure protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific latch configuration (quick-release vs. PowerGlide) required for your application, as variations may exist within the product line. Confirm that the fiberglass material meets all necessary UL 508A and CUL certification requirements for your jurisdiction. Ensure mounting hardware is compatible with the wall-mount style and supports the unit's weight of approximately 49 kg.

Selection Notes

Select this model when non-metallic construction is mandatory due to corrosive environments or electromagnetic interference concerns. The 48x36x16 dimensions provide substantial internal volume for large assemblies. Verify that the NEMA 4X rating aligns with the specific exposure conditions, such as hose-directed water or salt spray, to ensure adequate protection for sensitive components.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman wall-mount enclosure series designed for heavy-duty industrial use. It is part of nVent's portfolio of protective solutions, specifically engineered for applications where metal enclosures would degrade. The fiberglass construction distinguishes it from standard steel or aluminum alternatives, offering enhanced durability in aggressive chemical or marine settings.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include models with identical external dimensions and NEMA 4X ratings from the same manufacturer series. When replacing, ensure the new unit maintains the fiberglass material composition and hinged door configuration. Verify that any alternative model supports the same UL 508A listing and mounting footprint to avoid structural modifications.
