AP23B88

Overview

The AP23B88 is a bolt-down pedestal manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc., designed to support Human-Machine Interface (HMI) enclosures. It features a rigid one-piece vertical tube construction with die-cast aluminum base flanges that bolt securely to the floor. The unit measures 23 inches in length and 8 inches in width and depth, providing an optimal viewing and operating height for connected equipment. The finish is polyester powder paint in ANSI 61 Medium Gray.

Feature Summary

• Provides optimal viewing and operating height for HMI enclosures
• Features rigid one-piece vertical tube construction
• Includes die-cast aluminum base flanges for secure bolting

Applications

• Supporting CONCEPT™ HMI enclosures
• Supporting INLINE™ 4 x 4 in Pedestal HMI enclosures
• Industrial control panel installation requiring elevated operator interface

Procurement Notes

Verify compatibility with specific HMI enclosure models such as CONCEPT or INLINE series before procurement. Confirm mounting requirements align with site infrastructure. Ensure environmental conditions match the polyester powder painted finish specifications. Cross-reference part numbers with official nVent Hoffman documentation to avoid substitution errors.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed 23-inch elevation is required for HMI operation. Consider the rigid cast aluminum base for stability in high-vibration environments. Evaluate space constraints against the 8x8 inch footprint. Compare with other heights in the P1 series if different viewing angles are necessary.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman P1 series of pedestal accessories. It serves as a structural support element rather than an enclosure itself. The product line focuses on standardized solutions for integrating HMI devices into industrial control panels. Compatibility is limited to specific 4x4 inch pedestal-mounted enclosures.

Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute part numbers are publicly confirmed for this specific model. Alternative options may include other heights within the P1 series if dimensional differences are acceptable. Verify mechanical fit and mounting hole patterns before considering any alternative pedestal.
