AT101048

Overview

The AT101048 is an angled wiring trough manufactured by nVent Hoffman, designed to streamline electrical installation processes. Constructed from mild steel with a removable cover, this unit measures 10 inches in width, 10 inches in depth, and 48 inches in height. It adheres to NEMA Type 1 standards, providing basic protection against falling objects and limited ingress of solid foreign bodies. The design facilitates efficient wire management by eliminating the need for complex conduit configurations.

Feature Summary

• Angled geometry reduces total installation time significantly compared to traditional straight troughs
• Removable cover allows for easy access during wire pulling and maintenance
• Eliminates the requirement for costly 90-degree conduit bends
• Constructed from mild steel for structural durability

Applications

• Industrial panel wiring management
• Electrical cabinet cable routing
• Control system wire organization
• Manufacturing equipment power distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the NEMA Type 1 rating and mild steel construction requirements. Confirm dimensional compatibility with existing panel layouts, specifically the 10x10x48 inch footprint. Ensure the removable cover mechanism aligns with maintenance access needs. Check for any specific environmental conditions that might require additional coatings beyond standard mild steel specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this model when space constraints or workflow efficiency favor angled routing over vertical drops. Consider the mild steel material if corrosion resistance is not the primary concern. Evaluate the 48-inch length against the total cable run requirements. Compare against straight troughs if bending capabilities are sufficient for the application without needing angled solutions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Angled Trough Series, identified under Bulletin F40AT. It represents a specialized solution within the broader enclosure and wiring management portfolio, focusing on reducing labor hours during installation. The series aims to provide flexibility for wire routing while maintaining standard industrial protection levels.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other angled troughs from the same manufacturer with identical 10x10x48 dimensions and NEMA Type 1 ratings. Verify that alternative models maintain the removable cover feature and mild steel composition to ensure functional equivalence in installation time savings and physical protection.
