Overview

The nVent A60H3612ALLP LP Type 4X Continuous Hinge Enclosure is engineered for superior protection of sensitive electrical and electronic components in the most demanding industrial environments. Constructed from high-quality brushed aluminum, this enclosure offers exceptional corrosion resistance, making it the ideal choice for applications in petrochemical processing plants, sewage treatment facilities, marine installations, and other areas exposed to harsh chemicals, saltwater, and extreme weather conditions. Its robust design ensures long-term reliability and operational continuity. This enclosure features a continuous hinge that runs the full length of the cover, providing a secure and seamless seal. The hinged cover is fastened on the three non-hinged sides by heavy-duty stainless steel clamps and screws. This clamping mechanism ensures a tight, watertight, and dust-tight seal, meeting Type 4X environmental ratings. The LP (Low Profile) design offers a more streamlined aesthetic and can be advantageous in installations where space is a consideration. The brushed aluminum finish not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its durability and resistance to surface damage. Key features and benefits of the nVent A60H3612ALLP include: * **Superior Corrosion Resistance:** Brushed aluminum construction provides excellent protection against rust and chemical degradation, crucial for longevity in corrosive atmospheres. * **Type 4X Rating:** Guarantees protection against water, dust, and corrosion, suitable for both indoor and outdoor use in severe environments. * **Secure Clamping System:** Stainless steel clamps and screws ensure a robust, reliable seal on three sides, preventing ingress of contaminants. * **Continuous Hinge Design:** Offers a smooth, consistent opening and closing action, with a seal that remains intact across the entire cover length. * **Lightweight and Durable:** Aluminum offers a favorable strength-to-weight ratio, simplifying installation while maintaining structural integrity. * **Low Profile (LP) Design:** Contributes to a cleaner installation and can be beneficial in space-constrained applications. The 60x36x12 inch dimensions of this enclosure provide ample space for a wide range of control panels, instrumentation, and electrical equipment. nVent is a globally recognized leader in enclosures and protection solutions, known for their commitment to quality, innovation, and performance.

How to Install the A60H3612ALLP Enclosure

Instructions for mounting and adjusting the A60H3612ALLP enclosure, including door and panel installation.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Punch, Vibrating hammer (electric or air powered)

Supplies needed:

Fasteners, Metal shims, Hinge pin

  1. Prepare for Mounting

    Identify whether the enclosure is wall-mounted or floor-mounted. Wall-mounted enclosures have internal mounting means or external feet. Floor-mounted enclosures have floor stands with mounting plates. Ensure you have the proper fasteners for your chosen mounting method.

  2. Mount the Enclosure

    Secure the enclosure to the wall or floor using the appropriate fasteners in all mounting holes. For floor-mounted enclosures, ensure the floor is level or use shims under the enclosure corners as needed. For wall-mounted enclosures, ensure the mounting surface is flat to prevent door issues.

  3. Adjust Door Closing (if necessary)

    If the door does not open and close properly, or if it sags due to heavy equipment, adjust as follows: For single-door enclosures, place metal shims behind the bottom mounting foot closest to the hinge if the top of the door strikes the body opening lip. For two-door enclosures, place metal shims under the corners if the floor is not level, ensuring the doors meet evenly. Bolt the enclosure in place with doors closed before installing shims.

  4. Install the Interior Panel

    When installing the interior panel, you may need to slightly bend mounting studs to align the panel. Position the panel on the studs that line up, then use a screwdriver inserted through the panel holes to pry the remaining studs into place.

  5. Remove or Invert Print Pocket

    The print pocket on the door can be inverted or removed entirely as needed.

  6. Install Hubs and Devices

    Use agency Type rated hubs or devices of equal rating to the enclosure. Ensure hole openings and installation follow manufacturer instructions. Verify adequate hole-to-hole spacing for tightening and that installation does not interfere with the enclosure's gasket or edges. Conduit connections should be on the top, bottom, and sides.
