Part 1418ER8 is a 20 x 24 x 8 in (508 mm x 610 mm x 203 mm) wall-mounted control enclosure from Hammond's 1418 Series, with a continuous hinge door held by stainless steel clamps. It is designed to house electrical, electronic, hydraulic or pneumatic controls and instruments, and provides a degree of protection from falling dirt, dust, oil and water.

Its body is wider than it is tall (24 in wide by 20 in high), suiting side-to-side control layouts, and the 8 in depth gives a usable depth of 8.01 in on the manufacturer's drawing. The door opening is shown as 21.22 in wide by 17.22 in high, and the side view shows an overall height of 22.25 in. A removable 12 gauge inner panel measuring 17.00 in (432 mm) high by 21.00 in (533 mm) wide is included and mounts on collar studs; it is finished in white powder coating.

The body and door are formed from 14 gauge steel with smooth, continuously welded seams and no knockouts, cutouts or holes. A formed lip on both door and enclosure helps exclude flowing liquids and contaminants, and oil resistant gaskets are permanently secured. The door can be removed by pulling the hinge pin, and there is provision for padlocking. Cover and enclosure are finished inside and out in recoatable smooth ANSI 61 gray powder coating.

Welded brackets provide for wall mounting, with 0.44 in diameter mounting holes shown on the drawing. A bonding stud is fitted on the door, a grounding stud in the enclosure, and a literature pocket on the inside of the door. The 1418 Series is rated UL 508A Type 12 and 13 and CSA Type 12 and 13, and complies with NEMA Type 12 and 13 and IEC 60529 IP54 (UL File E65324, CSA Cert. LR21001). The 1418ER8 ships in a box at 61 lbs (27.67 kg).

Note: the 1418 Series is being discontinued and replaced by the 1418LP Series; availability is limited to inventory on hand.
