nVent HOFFMAN VSF1597 is a ventilated 19-inch fixed mild steel enclosure shelf with a 595 mm depth, RAL 7035 powder-coated finish and maximum load capacity of 1200 N for mounting to front and rear 19-inch profiles.
£74.40
The nVent HOFFMAN VSF1597 is a robust 19-inch fixed equipment shelf designed to provide additional mounting space inside compatible industrial enclosures fitted with front and rear 19-inch profiles. As part of the nVent HOFFMAN VSF shelf range, it offers a secure platform for supporting heavy electrical, electronic, automation and communications equipment.
The VSF1597 mounts directly to the front and rear 19-inch profiles, fixing at each corner to provide a high load capacity. Its height-adjustable installation allows the shelf position to be selected according to the equipment layout, while integrated ventilation openings maintain air circulation around installed components and help reduce the risk of localised hot spots.
Manufactured from durable 1.5 mm mild steel with a light grey RAL 7035 powder-coated finish, the VSF1597 has a height of 19 mm and a shelf depth of 595 mm. It supports loads up to 1200 N (approximately 122 kg) when correctly mounted to front and rear 19-inch profiles, making it particularly suitable for heavier enclosure-mounted equipment.
Fixed shelves such as the nVent HOFFMAN VSF1597 provide a practical way to install equipment that cannot be mounted directly to standard 19-inch rack profiles. By attaching the shelf to both the front and rear profiles, loads are supported at all four corners, providing the stability required for heavier industrial, electronic and communications components.
The VSF1597 can be adjusted vertically within a compatible enclosure to suit the equipment layout. Ventilation openings in the shelf allow air to circulate around installed components, helping preserve the enclosure's cooling airflow and reduce heat accumulation around temperature-sensitive equipment.
