LHC252015SS6

Overview

The LHC252015SS6 is an inline electrical enclosure manufactured by nVent Hoffman. It measures 9.84 inches in height, 5.91 inches in width, and 5.91 inches in depth (250 x 200 x 150 mm). Constructed from 316 stainless steel, it features a hinged cover with a quarter-turn latch mechanism. The unit holds NEMA Type 12, 4, 4X, and IP66 ratings, ensuring protection against dust, water, and corrosion.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 316 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance
• Features continuously welded seams ground smooth to prevent contaminant accumulation
• Includes an external formed body flange trough to block ingress of foreign matter
• Equipped with a seamless foam-in-place gasket for reliable sealing

Applications

• Protection of instrumentation in harsh industrial environments
• Wall-mount installations requiring high corrosion resistance
• Applications demanding NEMA Type 4X and IP66 protection levels

Procurement Notes

Verify the material specification is 316 stainless steel rather than 304, as this impacts corrosion performance. Confirm the presence of the quarter-turn latch and seamless gasket during inspection. Ensure the mounting configuration matches the wall-mount requirement. Check for any specific certification requirements relevant to your operational environment before finalizing the order.

Selection Notes

Select this model when superior corrosion resistance is required compared to standard steel or 304 stainless options. The compact inline design suits tight spaces where wall mounting is necessary. Consider the higher cost associated with 316 stainless steel against the environmental exposure level. Verify that the quarter-turn latch mechanism meets the security and access frequency needs of the installation site.

Part Context

This component belongs to the InLine series of wall-mount enclosures designed for rugged applications. The series emphasizes durability through welded construction and specialized sealing technologies. It serves as a protective housing for sensitive electronic components in environments where standard enclosures would fail due to moisture, dust, or chemical exposure.

Replacement Considerations

Substitutes must match the 250 x 200 x 150 mm dimensions and 316 stainless steel material. Ensure the replacement offers equivalent NEMA 4X and IP66 ratings. Verify compatibility with existing quarter-turn latch hardware and mounting patterns.
