C12C20SS

Overview

The C12C20SS is a stainless steel consolet enclosure manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. It features a sloped front cover and measures 12 inches in height, 20 inches in length, and 9.09 inches in depth. Constructed from Type 304 stainless steel with a #4 smooth brushed finish, the unit provides an IP65 ingress protection rating and meets NEMA Type 12 standards. The enclosure thickness is specified as 1.98 mm, designed for surface mounting applications requiring durable industrial housing.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from Type 304 stainless steel with a #4 smooth brushed finish
• Features a sloped front cover design suitable for HMI integration
• Provides IP65 ingress protection against dust and water jets
• Complies with NEMA Type 12 environmental sealing standards

Applications

• Human Machine Interface (HMI) console mounting
• Industrial control panel housing
• Surface-mounted instrumentation enclosures
• Environments requiring high corrosion resistance

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required ingress protection level matches the specific operational environment, as the IP65 rating indicates protection against powerful water jets but not submersion. Confirm that the Type 304 stainless steel material specification aligns with chemical exposure requirements. Ensure the surface mounting configuration supports the structural load of the intended internal components without additional reinforcement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a sloped front interface is necessary for operator accessibility or screen viewing angles. The Type 304 stainless steel construction offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel options. Consider the external dimensions carefully to ensure adequate clearance for cable entry and heat dissipation within the confined console space.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Consolet series, which specializes in enclosures designed for operator interaction stations. Unlike standard rectangular boxes, these units incorporate angled fronts to facilitate ergonomic access to controls and displays. The series typically utilizes stainless steel for enhanced durability in harsh industrial settings.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Verify compatibility with existing mounting hardware and cutout specifications before considering alternative models from other manufacturers.
