20846434

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 20846-434 is a shieldable front panel designed for electronic equipment enclosures. Constructed from aluminium, the component features an anodized front surface and a conductive rear side to ensure effective electromagnetic interference shielding. The panel is specified with three vertical mounting holes and a width dimension of 128.4 mm. It serves as a structural interface element within rack systems, providing both mechanical support and electrical continuity requirements for sensitive applications.

Feature Summary

• Shieldable construction with conductive rear surface
• Anodized front finish for corrosion resistance
• Aluminium material composition

Applications

• Electronic equipment enclosure front panels
• Rack system mounting interfaces
• Electromagnetic interference shielding applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact dimensional specifications against the official nVent SCHROFF datasheet before integration. Confirm that the conductive rear coating meets specific grounding requirements for your chassis design. Ensure compatibility with standard rack mounting standards. Cross-reference the part number format including hyphens if required by your procurement system.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a shieldable aluminium front panel is required for 128.4 mm wide applications. Consider the anodized finish for environmental protection. Evaluate the three-hole mounting configuration against your internal bracket layout. Verify that the conductive rear surface aligns with your grounding strategy.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent SCHROFF series of electronics packaging solutions. It is categorized as a rack panel or front panel accessory. Similar variants exist with different widths and hole configurations, such as part numbers 20846-436 and 20846-437, which share the same shieldable design principles but differ in physical dimensions.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public documentation. Alternative parts within the same product family, such as 20846-436 or 20846-437, may be considered if dimensional differences are acceptable. Verify functional equivalence regarding shielding and mounting before substitution.
