Why Choose the nVent HOFFMAN X230226G160 Extreme Environments Air Conditioner?
The nVent HOFFMAN X230226G160 is a compact Extreme Environments enclosure air conditioner with an integrated heating package, engineered for reliable thermal management in demanding industrial and washdown applications. Delivering a nominal cooling capacity of 1890 BTU/h (550 W) at 60 Hz, it helps maintain suitable operating temperatures for sensitive electrical and electronic equipment.
Designed for a nominal 230 V AC, single-phase, 50/60 Hz supply, the X230226G160 combines an energy-efficient rotary compressor with a reliable Smart Controller positioned on the enclosure side of the unit. The heating package extends its suitability to environments exposed to low temperatures, while the operating design supports challenging outdoor and industrial conditions.
The unit is manufactured from 304 stainless steel with a #4 brushed finish and incorporates a 10-degree sloped top shroud plus sloped internal surfaces to minimise areas where water, dust and bacteria can accumulate. High levels of enclosure protection, washdown-oriented construction and a reusable aluminium mesh filter make it particularly suitable for demanding industrial environments.
