DPCP080809GE

Overview

The DPCP080809GE is a polycarbonate terminal box from the nVent HOFFMAN DPCP Series. It features external dimensions of 80 mm height, 82 mm width, and 86 mm depth. The enclosure provides IP66 and IP67 ingress protection ratings, ensuring it is dust-tight and resistant to powerful water jets. A transparent viewing window is integrated into the design for visual inspection without opening the unit. The housing is finished in grey (RAL 7035).

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable polycarbonate material.
• Includes a transparent viewing window for internal component visibility.
• Provides IP66 and IP67 ingress protection against dust and water.

Applications

• Industrial control panel wiring terminations
• Outdoor electrical connections requiring weather resistance
• Compact sensor or signal distribution points

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required ingress protection level meets specific site conditions, as IP67 implies temporary immersion capability. Confirm that the polycarbonate material compatibility aligns with the chemicals present in the installation environment. Ensure the compact 80x82x86 mm footprint accommodates the necessary wire gauge and termination hardware. Check if additional mounting accessories are required for the specific surface type.

Selection Notes

Select this model when space is limited but high environmental protection is required. Polycarbonate offers a lightweight alternative to metal enclosures while maintaining robust impact resistance. The transparent door simplifies maintenance by allowing status checks without access. Consider the thermal properties of plastic if enclosing heat-generating components, as dissipation differs from metal housings.

Part Context

This component belongs to the DPCP Series of terminal boxes manufactured by nVent HOFFMAN. The series is designed for compact applications where standard metal enclosures are too large or heavy. It serves as a specialized solution for protecting small-scale electrical interconnections in harsh environments, distinct from larger NEMA-rated cabinets.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific polycarbonate model. Alternative solutions may require custom-sized polycarbonate boxes with equivalent IP67 ratings. Verify dimensional fitment carefully when considering generic alternatives, as the 80x82x86 mm size is specific.
