C1460BD

The nVent C1460BD Console is a premium industrial-grade control console engineered for demanding environments where durability, security, and operational reliability are critical. Part of the Series 14 Consoles, this C14 Type console combines robust steel construction with a high-performance painted finish to deliver exceptional protection against dust, oil, water, and other contaminants. With dimensions of 50.00x60.00x23.00 inches, the C1460BD offers substantial interior space for mounting control panels, instrumentation, operator interfaces, and other sensitive electronic or electrical components. The two-door design features overlapping front doors secured by a three-point latch and key-locking automotive-style handles, ensuring tamper-resistant access while maintaining operational efficiency. Designed to meet stringent industrial standards, the C1460BD complies with UL 508A Type 12, CSA Type 12, NEMA Type 12, and IEC 60529 IP65 ratings, making it ideal for use in manufacturing plants, oil and gas facilities, water treatment plants, and other harsh industrial settings. The console’s sloped front instrument panel is continuously hinged and removable, providing flexibility for panel configuration and maintenance. Internally, a removable 12-gauge steel inner panel is secured with collar studs, offering additional mounting versatility for components such as relays, terminal blocks, or PLCs. Oil-resistant gaskets are permanently affixed to ensure long-term sealing performance, while bonding and grounding studs on each door enhance electrical safety and compliance with grounding requirements. The C1460BD is constructed from 14-gauge steel with smooth, continuously welded seams—no knockouts, cutouts, or holes—to eliminate weak points and maximize structural integrity. The phosphatized and ANSI 61 gray powder-coated finish on both the exterior and interior surfaces provides superior corrosion resistance and a professional appearance, even in high-moisture or chemically aggressive environments. A literature pocket is integrated into the design for storing manuals, schematics, or maintenance logs, streamlining operational workflows and reducing downtime during inspections or troubleshooting. Professionals in industrial automation, electrical engineering, and facility management choose nVent consoles for their proven reliability, ease of installation, and long service life. The C1460BD is particularly well-suited for applications requiring Type 12-rated enclosures, such as control rooms, machine guarding stations, or outdoor electrical enclosures. Its modular design allows for customization with optional accessories like turret extensions, writing surfaces, or additional mounting hardware, ensuring adaptability to evolving operational needs. Trusted by engineers and facility managers worldwide, nVent (formerly Hoffman) delivers high-quality enclosure solutions that enhance safety, efficiency, and compliance in industrial environments.
