ARF04026R5

Enhance the outdoor protection of your single-mounted enclosures with the nVent ARF Rain Hood (SKU: ARF04026R5). Designed by nVent, a trusted leader in electrical enclosure solutions, this robust rain hood provides essential shelter, safeguarding your sensitive installed components from environmental hazards. Its primary function is to act as a barrier against water ingress, particularly when the enclosure door is opened, preventing accumulated moisture from dripping onto critical equipment. The ARF series rain hood features a thoughtfully designed, slightly sloped roof that effectively channels water away. Integrated dripstrips further ensure that water is directed away from the enclosure opening, minimizing the risk of internal contamination. Constructed from durable 1.5 mm mild steel, this rain hood is built to withstand demanding outdoor conditions. The light gray finish, a RAL 7035 structured powder coating, not only provides a professional aesthetic but also offers additional protection against corrosion and UV degradation. Installation of the ARF rain hood is straightforward, though it requires machining for proper integration. Once fitted, it subtly increases the enclosure's dimensions, adding 60 mm in height, 20 mm in depth, and 20 mm in width. This minimal increase ensures compatibility with most standard mounting configurations while significantly boosting environmental protection.
