Bard part number 9049-008 is an OEM inlet panel specified for SOF265 130C units, designed to properly route incoming air and help maintain the correct airflow path through the equipment. Replacing a damaged or missing inlet panel helps protect internal components and supports stable performance by reducing air bypass and recirculation that can affect temperature control and overall efficiency. For best results, confirm your Bard model and serial number to ensure the correct fit before ordering, since cabinet and airflow panels are model-specific.
