The slim profile and lightweight case is constructed of milled billet aluminum and provides IP68 dust and water ingress protection on the front face and IP65 protection when console mounted.
“The overwhelming popularity of the KMGBL series and requests from customers led us to add this 17-inch model,” said Mark Bidinger, business unit director, Rugged Electronics, Aydin Marine. “By expanding the KMGBL series line, we have simplified the selection process for boaters and builders to pick exactly the right size screens for their glass bridge installations.Every unit gives our customers the peace of mind that comes from the quality Aydin delivers.”
