Overview

The nVent A86M5E20LP is a robust, free-standing, multi-door Type 12 enclosure designed to safeguard critical industrial control and automation systems. Engineered by nVent, a recognized leader in enclosure solutions, this specific model features a five-door configuration, offering expansive internal access for complex equipment layouts and maintenance. Its substantial dimensions of 86.12 inches in height, 187.00 inches in width, and 20.12 inches in depth provide ample space for large electrical panels, PLCs, motor controls, and other sensitive components. Constructed from durable steel with a clean, white powder-coat finish, this enclosure is built to withstand demanding industrial environments. The Type 12 rating signifies its suitability for indoor applications where protection against dust, dirt, and falling dirt, as well as splashing water and dripping water, is paramount. This makes it an ideal choice for manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and other operational settings where environmental contaminants pose a risk to electrical integrity. The multi-door design, a key feature of the A86M5E20LP, is specifically engineered for applications requiring mechanical interlock systems. This ensures that only one door can be opened at a time, enhancing safety by preventing accidental exposure to live electrical components during operation or maintenance. This is critical in high-traffic industrial areas or where stringent safety protocols are enforced. While this specific SKU is supplied 'less panel,' it provides the foundational structure for custom panel configurations. This allows engineers and integrators to design and install internal mounting panels precisely tailored to their specific equipment needs, optimizing space utilization and accessibility. The free-standing design offers flexibility in placement within a facility, requiring no wall mounting and allowing for optimal workflow and accessibility. Key benefits of the nVent A86M5E20LP include: * **Superior Environmental Protection:** Type 12 rating ensures protection against dust, dirt, and water ingress. * **Enhanced Safety:** Multi-door design with provisions for mechanical interlock prevents simultaneous door opening. * **Expansive Interior Space:** Generous dimensions accommodate large and complex control systems. * **Durable Construction:** Robust steel build with a protective white finish for longevity. * **Flexible Configuration:** Supplied 'less panel' for custom internal component mounting. * **Trusted Manufacturer:** Backed by the quality and reliability of nVent. This enclosure is an essential component for maintaining the operational continuity and safety of industrial automation and control systems. Its thoughtful design and robust construction from nVent make it a reliable solution for protecting valuable electrical infrastructure against the rigors of industrial settings.

How to Repaint a Hoffman Enclosure

Guide on preparing and repainting Hoffman enclosures with TGIC polyester powder coating.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

180 grit sandpaper, 220 or 240 grit sandpaper (optional), Solvent, Paint manufacturer's recommended tools

Supplies needed:

TGIC polyester powder coated Hoffman enclosure, Paint compatible with TGIC polyester powder coating, Primer (if recommended by paint manufacturer)

  1. Prepare the Surface

    Thoroughly sand all enclosure surfaces with 180 grit sandpaper. If sanding marks are objectionable, finish sanding with 220 or 240 grit sandpaper. Wet wipe all surfaces with a solvent to remove any possible contaminants. Consult with your paint manufacturer for proper cure time and hardness prior to testing the paint for adhesion.

  2. Select Appropriate Paint

    Choose a paint that exhibits good adhesion properties over polyester powder. Recommended types include two-component epoxies, some two-component polyurethanes, and alkyd baking enamels. If using alkyd finishes, do not bake at temperatures exceeding 150°F to avoid discoloration.

  3. Apply Paint

    Apply two or three medium to light coats of paint. Allow two to three minutes flash off between coats. Allow paint to cure adequately according to the paint manufacturer's instructions.

  4. Test Adhesion

    After the paint has cured adequately, test the paint for adhesion. Consult with your paint manufacturer for proper cure time and hardness prior to testing.

  5. Test Repainting Process

    NOTICE: Always test the repainting process on an inconspicuous area prior to full application.
