Overview

Streamline industrial enclosure cooling upgrades with the nVent HOFFMAN Easy Swap Air Conditioner Adaptor Plenum (SKU: PLM28G28). This adaptor facilitates the replacement of legacy air conditioners without modifying existing enclosures, bridging M28 to G28 cutouts. Manufactured in the USA from 18-gauge steel and finished in light gray, it ensures compatibility with Hoffman air conditioners and maintains NEMA Type 12 and IP54 ratings. The plenum design optimizes airflow, preventing blockages common with flat plates. Each unit includes a gasket for a secure seal, aligning with original mounting holes for a precise fit. Ideal for manufacturing plants, data centers, and telecommunications, it reduces downtime and labor costs. Trusted by professionals, this plenum is part of nVent's retrofit solutions, enabling upgrades to energy-efficient models like SpectraCool or T-Series. It offers a cost-effective, time-saving solution for aging infrastructure, preserving enclosure integrity and cooling performance. Compatibility extends to Hoffman T-Series and Genesis models.
