DC Powered Fan Cooled NEMA Enclosure
The Altelix NS282416LVFD features two (2) thermostat controlled 120mm DC cooling fans. These door mounted low noise, high airflow fans provide better air flow through the enclosure than bottom mounted fans and help maintain lower internal temperatures. The fans turn on when the internal temperature reaches 100°F (38°C) and turn off when it drops to 79°F (26°C). Both fans are wired internally to the DC power terminal. Powder coated aluminum rain shrouds on the front door keep rainwater from entering the enclosure.
Available in 12VDC, 24VDC or 48VDC models, this enclosure can be powered from DC solar and battery power sources. The internal DC power terminal strip provides easy wiring to power sources.
Construction and Features
This rugged enclosure features continuous seam welded 18 Gauge (1.2mm thick) steel construction. The enclosure door is fully gasketed making this enclosure suitable for use indoors or outdoors. The door features reinforced hinges and dual quarter-turn latches to secure the enclosure. Internal grounding studs are provided on both the door and enclosure.
Both the enclosure and door are finished in a rugged epoxy polyester textured light gray powder coat finish.
Removable Power Module
The NS282416LVFD features a removable power module that attaches to the bottom of the enclosure. Constructed of rugged aluminum, this can be easily removed for servicing and is fully gasketed to ensure a proper seal. Three (3) cable gland are provided for wiring. These unique PG-16 cable glands feature a closed inner seal. They are installed in the open ports to maintain the NEMA rating of the enclosure when not in use. When required for use, simply punch a hole through the inner membrane, run your cables and tighten for a water-tight seal.
Galvanized Steel Equipment Plate
This configuration consists of the steel NEMA enclosure with hinged door and a 18 Gauge (1.2mm thick) zinc coated galvanized steel plate for mounting and securing equipment. The enclosure and plate can be drilled and modified by the installer to suit unique site requirements.
Mounting
Mounting holes are provided inside the enclosure for mounting to a wall or other structure. For pole mounting Altelix has available the optional NMHS-600-16 pole mount kit. This heavy-duty kit features (2) 14 gauge steel mounting brackets and (2) heavy-duty 19 gauge 304 stainless steel adjustable bands which can be used to mount to poles from 4.5" (114.3mm) to 16" (406.4mm) in diameter.
Optional Lockable Latches
For additional protection of internal equipment installed, two lockable latches are available. The HN-0005 is a keyed lock set which includes two keys. The HN-0006 allows the enclosure to be securely locked via use of a padlock (not included). Both the HN-0005 and HN-0006 are direct replacements for the standard quarter-turn latches that come pre-installed in the enclosures.
