30838051

Overview

The nVent Schroff 30838051 is an unshielded aluminum front panel designed for standard rack mounting systems. It features a height of 3 U and a width accommodating 12 HP (Hut Units). The panel thickness is specified as 2.5 mm. The front surface undergoes anodization to enhance durability and corrosion resistance, while the rear side is treated to be conductive, facilitating grounding requirements. This component serves as a structural cover or blanking plate within electronic enclosures.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from aluminum material with a 2.5 mm thickness for structural rigidity
• Front surface anodized to provide enhanced durability and corrosion protection
• Rear side conductive treatment applied to support electrical grounding connections
• Unshielded design configuration suitable for non-EMI critical applications

Applications

• Blanking unused slots in standard 19-inch equipment racks
• Covering open apertures in industrial electronics enclosures
• Providing structural closure for modular system housings
• Serving as a mounting base for front-panel accessories

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific dimensional tolerances and hole patterns against your chassis requirements before procurement. Confirm that the unshielded nature meets your environmental needs. Check current availability status as electronic packaging components may have varying lead times. Ensure the anodized finish color matches your system aesthetic if visual consistency is required.

Selection Notes

Select this model when an unshielded, conductive-back aluminum panel is required for 3U/12HP spaces. Consider alternative models if electromagnetic interference shielding is necessary. Evaluate the need for custom cut-outs or different finishes if standard configurations do not align with specific installation constraints or thermal management requirements.
