Advantages

The removable SI (sponge insert) allows precision customization of the case interior to fit devices and accessories. Egg crate foam in the lid provides additional shock absorption. Rigid polypropylene shells give high mechanical strength while the automatic air pressure compensation valve equalizes internal pressure during altitude or temperature changes. The case is dustproof and watertight, stackable for efficient storage, and the padded handle with optional carrying strap improves transport comfort. A transparent name plate is included, with a black name plate available as an option.

Suitable for

• Photographic equipment and camera kits

How to use

Open the case using the two latches and lift the removable lid. Fit the removable pre-cut sponge insert to the layout that matches your equipment by removing the required foam cubes to create cavities. Place items into the custom cavities and close the lid; egg crate foam in the lid will add cushioning. Use the padded handle or attach the optional carrying strap (CS/3000) for transport. Before flights or altitude changes, allow the automatic air pressure compensation valve to equalize internal pressure.

Usage recommendations

For best protection, place fragile items in individual foam cavities and ensure the lid closes without compressing contents. Rinse the exterior with fresh water after exposure to saltwater and inspect latches and valve periodically. Use optional accessories such as the lid pocket (LP/3000) or panel frame (PF/3000) if additional organization is needed.
