Overview

The nVent Sequestr External Disconnect Package (SKU: A72XD3418FTCLP) is a critical safety solution designed to mitigate arc flash hazards in industrial electrical systems. This pre-engineered package integrates a disconnect switch and fuse block/circuit breaker within a rugged Type 12 enclosure, ensuring compliance with stringent safety standards while simplifying installation for new projects. By isolating incoming power from the main enclosure, it provides technicians with a controlled environment to service interior components without exposure to live circuits, significantly reducing the risk of arc flash incidents—a leading cause of workplace injuries in electrical maintenance operations. Engineered for durability and performance, the Sequestr External Disconnect Package features a gray steel enclosure measuring 72.12" x 34.25" x 18.12", providing robust protection against environmental contaminants such as dust, dirt, and water ingress. The external mounting of the disconnect switch and overcurrent protection components allows for quick access and maintenance, while the internal terminal connections safely route power to the main enclosure. This design is particularly valuable in applications where frequent equipment servicing is required, such as manufacturing plants, data centers, healthcare facilities, and commercial buildings where operational continuity is paramount. The Sequestr package is ideal for facilities that prioritize safety and regulatory compliance, including those adhering to OSHA, NFPA 70E, and NEC guidelines. Its Type 12 rating ensures suitability for indoor use in harsh or industrial environments, where exposure to moisture, non-corrosive liquids, or airborne particulates is common. Professionals in industries such as food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and automotive production rely on nVent’s solutions to maintain safe working conditions while minimizing downtime during maintenance cycles. Installation is streamlined thanks to the pre-assembled design, shipped as a single unit ready for integration into new electrical systems. This reduces on-site labor costs and potential errors associated with field assembly, while the high-quality steel construction ensures long-term reliability even in high-vibration or high-impact settings. nVent, a global leader in electrical solutions, brings decades of expertise in thermal management, connectivity, and safety systems to this product line, offering customers peace of mind through proven performance and adherence to international standards. Key benefits of the Sequestr External Disconnect Package include: - Enhanced arc flash safety for maintenance personnel - Simplified installation and reduced labor costs - Compliance with Type 12 enclosure requirements for indoor industrial use - Durable steel construction for harsh environments - Pre-engineered design for new installations, minimizing field assembly errors Whether upgrading an existing facility or designing a new electrical system, the nVent Sequestr External Disconnect Package delivers a balance of safety, efficiency, and reliability.

How to Safely Handle and Install Large Hoffman Enclosures

This guide provides instructions for safely handling and installing large Hoffman enclosures, emphasizing precautions to prevent injury and equipment damage.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Forklift, Overhead lifting device (e.g., crane), Slings with load-rated hooks or shackles, ROLL•A•LIFT™ or similar device (for some models)

Supplies needed:

3000 lb.-rated chain or strap (for securing to forklift mast), Rigging equipment (for overhead lifting)

  1. Read Safe Handling Requirements

    Before moving or installing the enclosure, thoroughly read and understand the 'Large Enclosure Safe Handling Requirements' document that accompanied the enclosure. Ensure the route is clear of obstructions and all personnel are at a safe distance.

  2. Prepare for Movement

    Ensure the enclosure is stabilized before removing any strapping. Verify that the lifting equipment (forklift or overhead device) has a sufficient load rating for the enclosure's weight and size. Only trained and authorized personnel should operate the lifting equipment.

  3. Position Forklift Forks

    For forklift handling, spread the forks to the maximum distance or as dictated by the skid width. Enter the skid from the rear (Side A) of the enclosure. Position the enclosure carefully on the forks, keeping the load against the carriage/mast and tilting the load backward towards the mast.

  4. Secure Enclosure to Forklift

    If using a forklift, secure the enclosure to the forklift mast before moving. Insert a 3000 lb.-rated chain or strap through the eye bolts provided on top of the enclosure and fasten it securely to the forklift mast assembly. Ensure sufficient tension to prevent tipping.

  5. Lift and Transport Enclosure

    Lift the enclosure a minimum distance so the skid is just clear of the floor. Start and stop the forklift slowly and gradually, avoiding jerky movements. Drive slowly with the forks carried as low to the ground as possible. Never attempt to move more than one enclosure at a time.

  6. End Loading/Unloading (if applicable)

    For end loading/unloading on trailers, spread forks to match pallet end slot openings and enter from the narrow side (C or D). Secure the enclosure to the forklift mast using chains or straps. Tilt the mast to take weight off the opposite end and slide/push the enclosure as required. Do not use chains or straps to lift the enclosure.

  7. Overhead Lifting (if applicable)

    If using overhead lifting, attach rigging to the eye bolts, ensuring the angle between lifting cables and the vertical does not exceed 45 degrees. Use slings with adequate load-rated hooks or shackles. Ensure the load rating of the lifting device and rigging is sufficient. Do not use ropes or cables through eye bolts.

  8. Final Placement

    Once the enclosure is at its final location, carefully position it. Ensure it is stable and permanently installed according to any specific product instructions not covered in this general handling guide. Refer to the nameplate or datasheet for model-specific details.
