Overview

The nVent PT185 Solid Top (SKU PT185) is a painted steel closure designed for 1800x500mm enclosure frames. This top mount component provides a secure seal for the top opening of industrial enclosures, preventing ingress of dust, moisture, and physical contaminants. The painted finish over plated surfaces delivers corrosion resistance and durability in harsh environments. The gasketed design ensures a tight seal to protect sensitive electrical components. Integrated ground studs facilitate proper electrical grounding for safety and system integrity. Supplied with mounting bolts for straightforward installation, the PT185 also supports lifting eyes for handling heavier loads. This solid top is part of nVent's enclosure accessory line, compatible with 1800mm height and 500mm depth frame configurations. It is a critical component for maintaining enclosure integrity in manufacturing, petrochemical, water treatment, and telecommunications applications where environmental protection is essential.
