Overview

The nVent AL2BR Latch Kit is a field-installable, 3-point keylock latch designed for one-door Type 12 enclosures with heights from 16 to 30 inches. Engineered to meet NEMA 12 standards, this latch kit provides a tight seal against dust, dirt, and non-corrosive liquids, ensuring environmental protection for critical industrial applications. The chrome-plated steel construction delivers durability and corrosion resistance, while the keylock cylinder offers secure access control. The CW (clockwise) orientation aligns with standard enclosure designs for seamless integration. Adjustable latch rods feature relocatable pins in rod guides, allowing technicians to fine-tune gasket compression for optimal sealing performance. The latch rods are equipped with rollers at the ends, reducing friction during door closure and enhancing operational ease in high-frequency use scenarios. All openings through the door are gasketed to maintain a complete seal, preventing contaminants from compromising internal components. This design is particularly valuable in industries such as manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and data centers, where environmental control is essential for equipment longevity and compliance with safety standards. The AL2BR is not compatible with HOFFMAN disconnect, Concept, or ProLine enclosures, ensuring precise fitment for compatible systems.
