Overview

The nVent SpectraCool Narrow Advanced Corrosion Protection Level 2 air conditioner (SKU: N280426G802) delivers 4000BTU cooling at 230V, 1-phase input. Designed for harsh industrial environments, this unit features a brushed SS316 stainless steel enclosure for superior corrosion resistance against chemicals, salt spray, and moisture. The advanced coating system protects critical internal components—including the evaporator, condenser, and control board—extending operational life in corrosive atmospheres like chemical plants, coastal facilities, and wastewater treatment sites. With a compact narrow form factor, it fits standard 19-inch enclosures while maintaining high thermal performance. The 230V input accommodates global industrial power standards, and the unit includes integrated thermal overload protection. Certified for industrial use, this air conditioner ensures reliable temperature control for sensitive electronics, control panels, and instrumentation exposed to aggressive contaminants.
  • Level 1 Protection Includes: Protective coatings only applied to copper tubing and coils on the condenser (exterior facing) side as well as thermostat coatings.
  • Level 2 Protection Include: Everything that was coated in Level 1, plus protective coatings applied to the evaporator (interior facing ) side and an additional wrap around the thermostat.
  • Narrow design accommodates 12-inch (300mm) deep cabinets
  • Attractive industrial design with minimal use of visible fasteners
  • Cleanable, reusable aluminum mesh filter protects coils for maximum cooling performance
  • R407C, R513A or R134a refrigerants
  • Models for 115, 230 and 400/460 3-phase VAC power input
  • Outdoor model operating temperature range from -40 F/-40 C to 131 F/55 C (125 F/52 C on N28 Series)
  • Reliable mechanical thermostat on enclosure side of the unit; indoor Air Conditioner models include digital display on ambient side
  • Dust-resistant condenser coil allows the unit to be run filterless in most applications
