Constructed from durable 18-gauge steel and finished in light gray, the PLR1N17 maintains NEMA Type 12 and IP 54 ratings when properly installed, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress. The plenum design prevents airflow blockage common with flat plates, optimizing thermal management for sensitive electronic components. Includes a gasket for environmental sealing.

  • Gasket included
  • 18 gauge steel
