MP1816

Overview

The MP1816 is a standard mounting plate manufactured by nVent Hoffman, designed to fit enclosures with internal dimensions of 1800mm in length and 1600mm in width. Constructed from steel, this accessory provides a rigid internal surface for component installation within compatible industrial enclosure systems.

Feature Summary

• Provides a standardized flat mounting surface for electrical components
• Compatible with side-mounting configurations using specific profile kits

Applications

• Internal mounting for control panels requiring 1800x1600mm depth
• Side-panel integration within modular enclosure frameworks
• Support structure for DIN rail or component assembly

Procurement Notes

Verify that the target enclosure model explicitly supports the MP1816 plate dimensions. Confirm compatibility with MPS kits or MTS profiles if side-mounting is required. Ensure the enclosure interior matches the 1800x1600mm specification to guarantee proper fitment without modification.

Selection Notes

Select this part only when an existing enclosure lacks a pre-installed back panel or requires additional mounting depth. It serves as a replacement or upgrade for open-frame setups. Ensure the primary enclosure housing is rated for the intended environmental conditions, as the plate itself does not provide ingress protection.

Part Context

This component belongs to the general accessories category for nVent Hoffman industrial enclosures. It functions as a structural aid rather than a protective housing. It is typically paired with hinged door enclosures or plinth bases to create complete, functional control cabinets.

Replacement Considerations

No direct substitute part numbers are publicly confirmed for this specific dimension. Verify if alternative plates from the same manufacturer series match the 1800x1600mm footprint before considering cross-brand options.
