{"product_id":"2-ru-rack-vent-panel-hinged-apv-2","title":"2 RU Rack Vent Panel, Hinged","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe APV-2 is a 2 RU vented rack panel designed to provide efficient airflow while preventing accidental contact with internal components. Fabricated from 13-gauge steel with a Black Powder Coat finish, this panel is easily machinable to accommodate custom requirements. The hinged design allows installers to quickly access the rear of connector panels or other rack-mounted equipment without removing the panel entirely. This model features two mounting points and utilizes captive 10-32 threaded thumbscrews, which allow for tool-free operation and prevent hardware from being lost inside the rack. This TAA compliant accessory is part of the Vented Rack Panel series and is intended for use in 19-inch rack applications where ventilation and accessibility are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 RU height for standard rack integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHinged design for rapid, tool-free interior access\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e17% vent open area to maintain airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaptive 10-32 threaded thumbscrews prevent lost hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e13-gauge steel construction for durability and machinability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the APV-2 handle airflow?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe APV-2 features a 17% vent open area, which allows for necessary airflow while still providing a physical barrier to prevent accidental contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWill I need tools to open the access panel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo, the APV-2 is equipped with captive 10-32 threaded thumbscrews that allow for tool-free access to the rack interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan this panel be modified for custom mounting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the 13-gauge steel construction is designed to be easily machinable for specific installation requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs the APV-2 a TAA compliant part?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the APV-2 is listed as TAA compliant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does the APV-2 differ from other panels in the series?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe APV-2 is a 2 RU hinged version; other variants in the series may offer different rack unit heights from 1 RU to 6 RU or different finish options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpecifications are supplied by the manufacturer.
