AES MULTI-CL-PSK-SH, 2026 Shell Assembly, MULTICOM CLASSIC, Stainless Steel Pedestal
The AES MULTI-CL-PSK-SH is a replacement shell assembly for compatible AES MULTICOM CLASSIC stainless steel pedestal-mounted units. It is intended for 2026 and newer Multicom Classic pedestal installations where the original housing has been damaged, weathered, dented, corroded, or needs replacement during service.
This part should be treated as the shell / housing assembly only. It does not include the complete Multicom Classic intercom system, cellular motherboard, LCD display, keypad, prox reader, microphone, speaker, power supply, antenna, SIM service, programming, wiring, or access control electronics unless your actual package specifically states otherwise.
Important note: Current supplier data identifies MULTI-CL-PSK-SH as the stainless steel pedestal version for 2026 and newer Multicom Classic models. Some supplier description text may incorrectly reference a powder-coated black body. Treat PSK as the stainless steel pedestal version and verify the actual finish before publishing or ordering for a finish-sensitive project.
What This Part Does
The MULTI-CL-PSK-SH replaces the outer shell / body assembly on compatible AES Multicom Classic pedestal-mounted units. It helps restore the physical housing, appearance, and serviceability of the installed intercom when the original shell is no longer in good condition.

Technician Note
The most important checks on this part are model generation, mount style, and finish. MULTI-CL-PSK-SH should be treated as the 2026-and-newer Multicom Classic stainless steel pedestal shell assembly. If the unit is older than the 2026 shell generation, uses a wall-mount or imperial body, or requires powder-coated finish, this may not be the correct housing.
A shell replacement is usually mechanical, but the electronics and wiring still need to be handled carefully. Before transferring components, document all wiring, connectors, grounding, antenna placement, display mounting, keypad wiring, speaker/microphone routing, and seal locations. If the original shell failed from water intrusion or impact damage, correct the cause before reinstalling the electronics.
Before Ordering, Confirm
- Confirm the exact part number is MULTI-CL-PSK-SH.
- Confirm the installed system is AES MULTICOM CLASSIC.
- Confirm the unit is a 2026 or newer model that uses this shell assembly.
- Confirm the unit is pedestal mounted.
- Confirm the project requires the stainless steel PSK shell.
- Confirm the project does not require MULTI-CL-PBK-SH powder-coated pedestal instead.
- Confirm the project does not require MULTI-CL-IBK-SH imperial shell instead.
- Confirm the existing electronics, LCD, keypad, prox reader, speaker, microphone, antenna, lock hardware, and wiring are reusable or being replaced separately.
- Confirm the original shell failure was not caused by water intrusion, impact, corrosion, poor sealing, or installation conditions that need correction.
- Confirm any supplier description mismatch between stainless steel and powder-coated wording before publishing finish-sensitive content.
Installation and Service Notes
- Disconnect power before opening the Multicom Classic unit or transferring internal components.
- Photograph and label wiring before removing electronics from the original shell.
- Handle LCD, keypad, speaker, microphone, prox reader, antenna, and board connectors carefully.
- Do not pull on small leads, ribbon cables, coax cables, or display wiring.
- Inspect seals, gaskets, cable glands, drain paths, and mounting hardware before reassembly.
- Confirm the pedestal mount is secure and properly aligned before installing the replacement shell.
- Keep wiring routed away from pinch points, sharp edges, hinges, covers, and mounting hardware.
- After reassembly, test display, keypad, call function, prox reader where equipped, audio, relay output, cellular connection, and normal visitor operation.
Professional Advisory
Shell replacement on an AES Multicom Classic unit should be handled by a qualified gate access, low-voltage, or access control technician when wiring, component transfer, antenna placement, or weather sealing is involved. Do not bypass access control authorization, emergency access equipment, fire access equipment, monitored photo eyes, safety edges, or gate operator safety inputs while servicing the intercom. If the original housing was damaged by impact, corrosion, water intrusion, vandalism, or improper mounting, correct the underlying issue before reinstalling the internal components.
