DPCP121609GE

Overview

The DPCP121609GE is a polycarbonate terminal box manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. It features surface-mounted installation with a closed cover design. The enclosure provides up to IP66 ingress protection against dust and water, making it suitable for harsh environments. Dimensions are 120 mm in height, 160 mm in width, and 91 mm in depth. The unit is grey (RAL 7035) and includes a lockable door compatible with double-bit or quarter-turn keys.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable polycarbonate material
• Provides IP66 protection against dust and water ingress
• Includes a lockable door for security

Applications

• Harsh industrial environments requiring dust and water resistance
• Surface mounted electrical terminal connections
• Indoor equipment housing where high ingress protection is required

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific material composition and ingress protection rating against official nVent Hoffman datasheets before integration. Confirm that the surface mounting method aligns with the installation site requirements. Ensure the lockable door mechanism matches existing key systems if replacement is intended. Cross-reference dimensions to ensure fit within the designated panel space.

Selection Notes

Select this model when polycarbonate construction is preferred over steel for weight or corrosion reasons while maintaining high environmental protection. The IP66 rating indicates suitability for washdown areas or dusty conditions. Consider the surface mount requirement as an alternative to DIN rail or panel cutout installations. Verify compatibility with required cable entry points not detailed in the general overview.

Part Context

This component belongs to the DPCP Series of terminal boxes offered by nVent Hoffman. The series includes various sizes and materials, such as ABS options like the DABP121609GE. The DPCP variant specifically utilizes polycarbonate to offer transparency and impact resistance alongside environmental sealing capabilities for electrical distribution tasks.

Replacement Considerations

The DABP121609GE is a related model using ABS material rather than polycarbonate. Verify material compatibility and environmental ratings when substituting. Ensure dimensional equivalence is maintained during any cross-series replacement to avoid mounting issues.
