CIPD38

Overview

The Hoffman CIPD38 is a 19-inch universal mounting profile designed for nVent HOFFMAN enclosures. It measures 67.01 inches in height, 1.77 inches in width, and 0.57 inches in depth. Constructed from 14-gauge mild steel with a zinc-plated finish, this component allows for the installation of additional 19-inch equipment within the side or front of an enclosure. It is specifically engineered for use with 38U (1800 mm) floor-standing enclosures.

Feature Summary

• Universal mounting profile design enables flexible installation of additional 19-inch equipment on the side or front of the enclosure.
• Constructed from 14-gauge mild steel to provide structural durability and support for mounted components.
• Features a zinc-plated finish to offer corrosion resistance for industrial environments.
• Designed with adjustable depth capabilities to accommodate various mounting requirements.

Applications

• Installation of additional 19-inch equipment within the side of 38U floor-standing enclosures
• Installation of additional 19-inch equipment within the front of 38U floor-standing enclosures
• Rack component integration for 1800 mm height nVent HOFFMAN enclosures

Procurement Notes

Verify that the target enclosure matches the required 38U (1800 mm) height specification before procurement. Confirm that the application requires a single-side mounting profile rather than a dual-sided configuration. Ensure compatibility with standard 19-inch rack equipment dimensions. Check for any specific environmental coating requirements beyond the standard zinc plating if the installation area presents unique corrosion risks.

Selection Notes

Select the CIPD38 when expanding capacity within existing 38U floor-standing enclosures by adding 19-inch devices to the side or front panels. This profile is suitable for applications requiring robust 14-gauge steel construction. Consider this part only if the enclosure height is exactly 1800 mm. For different heights or dual-side mounting needs, alternative profiles such as the CIB or CID series may be more appropriate.

Part Context

The CIPD38 belongs to the nVent HOFFMAN Rack Components category, specifically under Enclosure General Accessories. It serves as a critical hardware element for modular enclosure expansion, allowing users to maximize internal space utilization. This product line supports the automation of panel preparation and facilitates the organized integration of electronic and electrical equipment within industrial control cabinets.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Users should verify exact dimensional compatibility (67.01 in H x 1.77 in W) and gauge thickness (14 ga) when considering alternatives. Ensure any replacement maintains the 19-inch standard interface for equipment mounting.
