Peli Products UK unveils 1505 Air Case

This panel mount offers the capability to engineer electronics and instrumentation panels directly into the case, creating a full equipment protection system. The 1505 is a versatile, shallow attaché-style case with plenty of practical and useful features.

As with all Peli Air cases, the 1505 is constructed from super-light proprietary HPX² polymer. This ensures the case is lighter in weight but still exceptionally durable.

Ideal for a wide range of industries, the 1505 model has MIL-SPEC certification for defence and security applications. It is waterproof (to IP67), crushproof and dustproof. Press and pull latches ensure the case is easy to open but closes securely and the automatic pressure equalisation valve balances the air pressure after changes in altitude.
