CED40

Overview

The CED40 is a panel-mount junction box manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. Constructed from steel with an Xtra Small form factor, it measures 4 x 4 x 3 inches (102 x 102 x 76 mm). The enclosure features a continuous hinge design and screw-down clamps for secure closure. It carries an IP66 rating and NEMA Type 12 classification, ensuring protection against dust, water jets, and dripping non-corrosive liquids. The unit utilizes oil-resistant gaskets and ANSI 61 Gray polyester powder paint for corrosion resistance.

Feature Summary

• Continuous hinge mechanism allows for easy access to internal components while maintaining structural integrity.
• Screw-down clamps provide a secure and reliable closure method for the hinged door.
• Oil-resistant gaskets ensure effective sealing against environmental contaminants and moisture ingress.

Applications

• Protection of electrical components in industrial environments requiring NEMA 12 compliance.
• Enclosure for control panels exposed to oil mist or occasional water spray.
• Mounting housing for sensors or interface modules in machinery applications.

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application environment aligns with the NEMA 12 and IP66 ratings provided. Confirm that the required internal dimensions accommodate all components with adequate clearance. Ensure mounting hardware matches the panel thickness and hole configuration specified for the 4x4x3 inch footprint.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, hinged steel enclosure is required for panel mounting. The CED40 is suitable for applications needing protection against dust and light water exposure without the bulk of larger enclosures. Consider the continuous hinge feature if frequent access is necessary compared to removable lid designs.
