CSD16166EMCSS

Overview

The CSD16166EMCSS is a wall-mount enclosure manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, it features a textured polyester powder-coated finish in ANSI 61 gray. The unit measures 16 inches in length and width with a depth of 6 inches (152.4 mm). It provides NEMA 4X protection ratings, suitable for harsh environments requiring corrosion resistance and watertight sealing.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 304 stainless steel for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance
• Features a quarter-turn latch mechanism for secure door access
• Includes a textured polyester powder-coated finish in ANSI 61 gray
• Designed as a single-door wall-mount enclosure

Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring NEMA 4X protection
• Outdoor electrical installations exposed to washdown or corrosive agents
• Food and beverage processing equipment housing
• Marine or coastal infrastructure electronics enclosures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific material grade and finish specifications against official manufacturer documentation prior to procurement. Confirm that the quarter-turn latch configuration meets operational security requirements. Ensure the 16x16x6 inch dimensions align with spatial constraints within the intended installation environment. Cross-reference the NEMA 4X rating with environmental exposure conditions to validate suitability for long-term deployment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high corrosion resistance is critical due to chemical exposure or frequent washdown procedures. The 304 stainless steel construction offers superior performance compared to mild steel alternatives in aggressive environments. Consider the quarter-turn latch for rapid access needs while maintaining a secure seal. Evaluate the 16-inch square footprint against internal component layout requirements to ensure adequate space for wiring and heat dissipation.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman CSD series of stainless steel enclosures, designed for demanding industrial applications. The CSD16166EMCSS variant specifically addresses the need for compact, corrosion-resistant housing with standard mounting dimensions. It complements other accessories such as gland plates and mounting bars available within the same product family for complete system integration.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include models with identical 16x16x6 dimensions and 304 stainless steel construction. Verify compatibility of mounting hole patterns and latch mechanisms when considering alternative brands. Ensure equivalent NEMA 4X certification is maintained if environmental protection levels are unchanged.
