Software makes for simple configuration of subrack
Schroff, the 19-inch expert, is the first on the market to offer a software program that allows the customer to configure individual subracks, plug-in modules, sub-units and front panels.
Handle protects CPCI boards in 19in units
Schroff's HLS (High Leverage Self-locking) handle fully complies with the IEEE 1101.10 standard and is suitable for the insertion and extraction of all 19" plug-in units.
The case, which is an enclosed subrack, is particularly suited to measurement, instrumentation and control applications.
It can be configured either as a portable desktop case or as a 19 inch plug in unit.
The ratiopac PRO series is available as either a space optimised 3, 4 or 6 U unit or a 4, 5 or 7 U unit with integral ventilation.
Side panels and horizontal rails are constructed from lightweight aluminium.
Front handles and trims are manufactured from die cast aluminium.
Painted grey and with no screw heads visible, ratiopac PRO is aesthetically pleasing.
The appearance is further enhanced by the virtually seamless transition between panels.
Quick and easy accessibility is achieved by the use of a single clip fastener to allow covers and side panels to be removed without the need for special tools.
Even the most basic version of ratiopac PRO features a high level of EMC shielding, with attenuation greater than 25dB at 1GHz.
The degree of shielding can be easily upgraded if required.
The interior layout of ratiopac PRO means that users can take advantage of the full range of schroff's subrack accessories that include handles, backplanes, front panels and board guides.
All models in the range comply with IEC60297, its revision, and the new IEEE1101.10/.11 standard.
