C8C12SS

Overview

The C8C12SS is a stainless steel consolet enclosure manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. It features a sloped cover design with dimensions of 8 inches in length, 12 inches in width, and 7.09 inches in depth. Constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel, the unit provides Type 12 protection against dust, dripping non-corrosive liquids, and oil. The seams are continuously welded and ground smooth to ensure durability and hygiene. The enclosure includes no pre-drilled holes or knockouts, allowing for custom fabrication based on specific application requirements.

Feature Summary

• Sloped cover design allows positioning on either side to provide 30- or 60-degree surface access
• Constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel with continuously welded and ground smooth seams
• Provides Type 12 environmental protection without pre-drilled holes or knockouts

Applications

• Mounting small control devices requiring angled access
• Instrumentation installations needing corrosion resistance
• HMI mounting where 30 or 60-degree viewing angles are desirable

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required ingress protection rating aligns with Type 12 standards for your specific environment. Confirm that the absence of pre-drilled holes meets your installation needs, as custom drilling may be necessary. Ensure compatibility with any internal components regarding the 8x12x7.09 inch internal volume. Check for any specific material certifications if used in regulated industries.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a sloped surface is required for operator visibility or ease of interaction. Choose Grade 304 stainless steel for environments involving mild corrosion or washdowns. Consider the fixed dimensions of 8x12x7.09 inches to ensure fit within the designated panel space. Evaluate whether the Type 12 rating suffices compared to higher ratings like Type 4X if exposure to water jets or harsh chemicals is expected.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Consolet series of enclosures designed for industrial control panels. It serves as an integrated solution for housing instrumentation while providing ergonomic access angles. The product line emphasizes durable metal construction and flexible mounting orientations to accommodate various panel layouts and operational requirements.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify dimensional compatibility if substituting with other consolet models. Ensure material grade matches if corrosion resistance is critical.
