D181610CHSCFGWP

Overview

The D181610CHSCFGWP is a Type 4X hinged-cover enclosure manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. It features a fiberglass construction designed to be transparent to wireless signals. The unit measures 18 inches in length, 16 inches in width, and 10 inches in height. It includes a window door configuration that allows for signal transmission without compromising the NEMA Type 4X environmental protection rating.

Feature Summary

• Fiberglass composition ensures structural integrity while remaining transparent to WiFi and WLAN radio frequencies.
• NEMA Type 4X rating provides protection against corrosion, water, and dust ingress.
• Hinged cover design with window door facilitates visual access and signal passage.

Applications

• Outdoor wireless communication equipment housing
• WiFi access point enclosures requiring signal transparency
• Industrial environments needing corrosion-resistant wireless infrastructure protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix to confirm the inclusion of the window door feature, as standard versions may lack signal transparency. Confirm dimensional requirements match the 18x16x10 inch footprint. Ensure the application environment aligns with the fiberglass material properties and Type 4X rating specifications provided by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this model when both environmental sealing (Type 4X) and wireless signal transmission are required simultaneously. Standard metal enclosures block RF signals; this fiberglass variant solves that conflict. Verify that the internal equipment fits within the 18x16x10 inch volume and that the hinged door mechanism meets maintenance access needs.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Enclosures lineup specialized for wireless applications. It addresses the common engineering challenge of protecting sensitive electronics from harsh outdoor conditions while maintaining necessary connectivity. The fiberglass material distinguishes it from traditional steel or aluminum enclosure options.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Alternative solutions would require custom fabrication or different manufacturers offering similar fiberglass Type 4X window-door enclosures.
