E25PBY25M

Overview

The Hoffman E25PBY25M is an extra-large pushbutton enclosure constructed from gray steel. It features a wall-mount design with a hinged cover and gasketed seal, providing NEMA Type 12 and IP65 protection ratings. The unit measures approximately 16 inches in length, 15 inches in width, and 6 inches in depth. It includes 25 pre-stamped outlets sized for 22.5 mm (7/8 inch) pushbuttons and switches. The enclosure utilizes a continuous hinge and captive screws that thread into sealed wells to maintain environmental integrity.

Feature Summary

• Continuous welding and grinding of seams for smooth surfaces
• Captive cover screws engaging sealed wells for secure closure
• Factory-stamped four-way pushbutton layout for standardized installation

Applications

• Housing industrial push buttons and control switches
• Panel mounting in automation and machinery control systems
• Indoor electrical equipment protection requiring dust and oil resistance

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific hole configuration matches the required switch dimensions. Confirm that the included back panel meets the necessary cutout requirements for the intended components. Ensure the NEMA 12 rating aligns with the operational environment's exposure to falling non-corrosive dust and dripping non-corrosive liquids.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a high-density arrangement of 22.5 mm controls is required within a single grounded enclosure. The steel construction offers durability for indoor industrial settings. Consider the external dimensions to ensure adequate clearance for wiring and maintenance access behind the hinged door.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman E Series of extra-large pushbutton enclosures. These units are designed specifically for housing multiple operator devices in a compact footprint. The series emphasizes ease of installation through pre-punched layouts and robust sealing mechanisms suitable for demanding factory environments.

Replacement Considerations

Check for compatible sub-series variants with identical mounting footprints but different internal configurations. Verify that alternative models maintain the same 22.5 mm hole size compatibility and NEMA 12 certification level.
