Overview

Enhance your nVent floor-standing enclosures with the nVent PA1040 Side Plinth Panels (SKU: PA1040). These panels are designed to complete the base of nVent PF/PV plinths, providing a clean finish and preventing access to the space beneath the enclosure. Constructed from 1.5 mm mild steel, they offer durability for industrial applications. Each panel features double returns on its sides for increased structural rigidity and resistance to deformation. The finish is a RAL 7022 structured powder coating, known for excellent adhesion and corrosion resistance. These side panels cover the openings on the sides of the plinths, ensuring a finished look. They are compatible with combinable and semi-compact enclosure ranges. For enhanced functionality and support, especially when combining enclosures, nVent transversal profiles PCP are recommended for additional rigidity and cable duct support. The nVent PA1040 is an essential accessory for a functional and aesthetically pleasing enclosure installation.
