INDUSTRY STANDARDS

Maintains NEMA Type 4 and 12 and IEC IP66 enclosure rating when properly installed per Hoffman instructions.

APPLICATION
Vertical motion pendant arm effortlessly lifts, lowers and repositions HMI enclosures in NEMA Type 4 and 12 environments.
Gas spring counterbalance can be adjusted for loads of 30-100 lb.
Release handle and locking mechanism are ideal for applications where machine vibration is a concern.

features

  • Field-adjustable gas-spring counterbalance supports loads of 30-100 lbs.
  • Gas springs are set to maximum pressure (100 lb. load) and lifting force can be reduced through a sealed access cap in the top of the arm (Lifting force cannot be increased once spring pressure is reduced.)
  • Provides 13 in. of vertical height adjustment
  • Release handle (included with arm) automatically locks arm in place when repositioned vertically (release handle is required to operate the arm)
  • Easily interfaces with Hoffman HMI enclosures using a 60-x-60- mm enclosure mounting pattern (enclosure must be ordered separately)
  • 1.4-in. internal cable pathway maintains NEMA Type 4 and 12 enclosure rating and protects wires and cables
  • Gasketed mounting surfaces at both ends of arm maintain seal integrity
  • Enclosure and arm can be swiveled 320 degrees
  • Wall-mount, machine-top-mount and post-top-mount options available
  • Optional floorpost available
