A comprehensive enclosure and climate control portfolio In addition, several different designs are available to allow for any type of configuration. For instance, a stand-alone configuration can be created with a compact, floor-standing enclosure; a large configuration can be built by baying various modular enclosures. |
Versatile accessories that can be used with multiple enclosures Access to a wide range of general accessories and cable management solutions to complement our enclosure ranges is paramount, to simplify design, procurement, handling, and mounting, especially for panel builders and installers. A major advantage is the fact that most of our accessories can be mounted throughout an entire platform, such as free-standing products. This significantly reduces the complexity for engineers and the assembly staff who work with the nVent HOFFMAN product portfolio. |

Development drivers
Fast Assembly
nVent HOFFMAN’s solutions help reduce assembly time. One example is click-in baying brackets to be used when baying two combinable enclosures. Another example is the click-in profile system which can be used for a variety of accessories. The main advantages of the click-in systems are that no cage-nuts and no tools are needed for the assembly work. A third example is the new retainer for the mounting plates and the hanging feature on the side
Optimum Protection
High rigidity and proper sealing are crucial aspects to ensure an enclosure provides thorough protection of electrical components. High rigidity is achieved by an increase in material thickness and an innovative ‘S’ bend that makes larger panels very strong. A low absorption gasket is a standard feature in all enclosures, and enclosures within the stainless steel range come with a silicon gasket that that provide top protection against chemicals and extreme temperatures. Other developments, such as the new locking systems, ensure proper IP-protection also when the enclosure is installed on uneven floors and/or when the door is exposed to heavy weights.
Appealing Design
nVent HOFFMAN’s engineers believe industrial design is an essential dimension in the development and engineering process to maximize user experience. Aspects such as visual appeal and user friendliness must contribute to creating a pleasant experience when working with the enclosure or accessing the interior for inspection etc. Examples from nVent HOFFMAN include the lock covers, corner forming, as well as perfect welding and finishing.
