DNS1805R5

Overview

The nVent Hoffman DNS1805R5 is a side door designed for the DNS series of floor-standing enclosures. It measures 1782 mm in height, 493 mm in width, and 51 mm in depth. Constructed from 2 mm mild steel plate with a zinc-plated finish, it provides robust physical protection. The component complies with IP 55, NEMA Type 12, and IK 10 standards, ensuring resistance to dust, water jets, and mechanical impact. It is specifically engineered for use with 500 mm wide by 1800 mm high enclosure frames.

Feature Summary

• Provides secure access to internal equipment while maintaining environmental sealing integrity
• Constructed from heavy-gauge mild steel for enhanced durability and impact resistance
• Complies with strict industrial ingress protection and mechanical impact ratings

Applications

• Replacement or accessory doors for DNS series floor-standing enclosures
• Industrial control panels requiring Type 12 protection against dust and dripping non-corrosive liquids
• Facilities requiring IK 10 rated surfaces for high-impact environments

Procurement Notes

Verify that the target enclosure frame matches the DNS series specifications exactly. Confirm that the required width is 500 mm and height is 1800 mm to ensure proper fitment. Check that the mounting interface aligns with standard DNS hinge and latch configurations. Ensure the environment requires IP 55 and Type 12 ratings rather than higher classifications like Type 4X. Validate material requirements for zinc-plated mild steel compatibility with existing corrosion protection strategies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when standard side panels are insufficient for operational access needs. Choose this model if the application demands compliance with NEMA Type 12 and IK 10 standards simultaneously. Consider this option for retrofitting existing DNS enclosures where full replacement is not feasible. Evaluate whether the 500 mm width constraint fits the overall system layout. Assess if the 2 mm steel thickness meets structural load requirements for the specific installation location.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman DNS series, which comprises floor-standing enclosures designed for industrial applications. The DNS series typically features continuous hinges and robust construction for housing electrical and electronic components. Side doors like the DNS1805R5 serve as functional alternatives to fixed side panels, facilitating maintenance and wiring access without compromising the enclosure's protective rating.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available for direct replacement.
