AST484R

Overview

The AST484R is a splitter trough manufactured by nVent HOFFMAN, designed for electrical power distribution. Constructed from gray steel, this unit measures 48 inches in length, 6 inches in width, and 4.5 inches in depth. It features a Type 1 enclosure rating suitable for indoor use. The component supports a 4-wire configuration with an amperage rating of 55/85 A, facilitating efficient cable management and circuit separation within industrial control panels.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable gray steel material
• Supports 4-wire electrical configurations
• Provides Type 1 indoor environmental protection

Applications

• Industrial control panel assembly
• Electrical power distribution systems
• Cable management and routing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific amperage requirements against the 55/85 A rating to ensure compatibility with the intended load. Confirm that the installation environment meets the Type 1 indoor protection standards. Check dimensional constraints to ensure the 48x6x4.5 inch footprint fits the target enclosure space. Ensure the 4-wire configuration aligns with the system's wiring design.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a robust steel splitter trough is required for indoor applications. The 48-inch length provides substantial capacity for wire organization. Consider the 85 A rating for high-current distribution needs. Verify that the gray finish matches other enclosure components if aesthetic consistency is required. Ensure the Type 1 rating is sufficient for the specific operating conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Enclosures product line, now under nVent. It serves as a critical accessory for organizing electrical wiring within larger enclosure systems. The splitter trough design allows for structured routing of multiple conductors, reducing clutter and improving maintenance access compared to loose wiring methods.
