A48H3616SS6LP3PT

Overview

The Hoffman A48H3616SS6LP3PT is a wall-mount enclosure constructed from 316L stainless steel, designed for Type 4X protection. It measures 48 inches in length, 36 inches in width, and 16 inches in height, with an internal panel size of 45 x 33 inches. The unit features a single door equipped with a continuous hinge and the exclusive PowerGlide handle mechanism utilizing three-point latching. The exterior finish consists of a #4 smooth brushed texture on the door, sides, top, and bottom, while the handle is electropolished to enhance corrosion resistance.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from Grade 316L stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance
• Features the exclusive PowerGlide handle with three-point latching mechanism
• Includes a continuous hinge design for durable door operation
• Provides Type 4X environmental protection rating

Applications

• Indoor industrial environments requiring high corrosion resistance
• Outdoor applications exposed to harsh weather conditions
• Facilities demanding strict Type 4X enclosure standards
• Heavy-duty equipment housing in chemical or marine settings

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the 316L stainless steel material specification and the three-point latch configuration. Confirm the exact dimensional requirements align with the 48x36x16 inch footprint and the 45x33 inch panel size. Ensure the application environment justifies the Type 4X rating and stainless steel construction. Cross-reference the part number suffixes to confirm the brushed and electropolished finish details are included in the shipment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when standard stainless steel enclosures do not provide adequate corrosion resistance for the intended environment. The three-point latching system offers enhanced security and seal integrity compared to standard two-point latches. Consider the larger dimensions and heavier gauge material if higher internal component density or robustness is required. This unit is suitable where wall-mounting space allows for a 48-inch width.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman wall-mount enclosure series, specifically engineered for severe environmental conditions. It utilizes the PowerGlide handle technology, which is distinct from standard cam-lock handles found in other models. The use of 316L stainless steel differentiates it from 304 stainless or aluminum alternatives within the same product family, offering improved performance against chlorides and acids.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 48x36x16 inch dimensions and 316L stainless steel material. Verify compatibility of the three-point latch mechanism if replacing with similar heavy-duty models. Ensure the replacement maintains the Type 4X rating and continuous hinge design for proper door support and sealing.
