Why Choose the nVent HOFFMAN PF1040 Front/Rear Plinth?

The nVent HOFFMAN PF1040 is a robust front and rear plinth system for floor-standing electrical enclosures, designed to create additional space beneath the cabinet for unrestricted cable routing and easier installation. As part of the nVent HOFFMAN PF plinth series, it provides a durable base solution for compatible 400 mm-wide industrial enclosures while supporting installations in accordance with VDE 0113.

The PF1040 consists of four corner pieces with removable front and rear covers, allowing convenient access to the space beneath the enclosure during cable installation and maintenance. The enclosure can also be secured to the installation floor without requiring access from inside the cabinet, making the system particularly practical for industrial panel building and automation installations.

Designed for 400 mm-wide enclosures, the PF1040 has an overall height of 100 mm, an actual width of approximately 398 mm and a depth of 63 mm. The corner pieces are manufactured from 2 mm mild steel, with 1.5 mm mild steel panels, and finished in a durable RAL 7022 structured powder coating.

Improved Cable Access for Floor-Standing Enclosures

Plinth systems such as the nVent HOFFMAN PF1040 raise a floor-standing electrical enclosure above the installation surface, creating valuable additional space beneath the cabinet. This space can be used to route incoming and outgoing cables while reducing congestion around the enclosure bottom plates and simplifying installation work.

The removable front and rear covers allow installers to access the cabling area without entering the main enclosure. For a complete plinth, compatible nVent HOFFMAN PS side panels are added separately, while PCP transversal profiles can be used in combined enclosure installations to provide cable duct support and additional rigidity.

Typical Applications

  • Floor-standing industrial electrical enclosures.
  • Industrial control and automation cabinets.
  • Power distribution and switchgear assemblies.
  • Under-enclosure cable routing and cable management.
  • Bayed enclosure and control panel systems.
  • Machine building and manufacturing installations.
