Enclosure solution for data protection in tough environments
17 November 2004Manufacturing / Production Technology, Hardware & Services
With its IW (industrial workstation) enclosure for tower PCs, Rittal offers an innovative solution for secure acquisition of production data. Sensitive hardware components, such as tower PC, monitor and mouse, need safe and secure packaging solutions when they are used in tough industrial environments. In particular, where personnel and order information, as well as stock, quality and maintenance data are to be processed, a secure and organised infrastructure is a must. In response to this, Rittal added the new ergonomic, ready-to-connect IW enclosure for tower PCs to its range.
Security, modularity, ergonomics and design are key criteria in the modern workplace. Rittal noted this in its design, and building on the proven IW concept, developed 'desks with enhanced degrees of protection'. The elegant IW enclosure is much more than just a work surface, as it rolls desk, PC enclosure and monitor housing into one. Integration of a shelf into the door of the lower enclosure section provides accommodation for a tower PC, and guarantees maximum accessibility to the hardware components.
The enclosure is supplied ready to connect and incorporates a fan-and-filter unit with outlet filter, as well as a door position switch and a socket strip as connection for the PC and monitor. The 230 V power supply is introduced via an external socket. It is protected to IP54.
The worktop is available with or without a handle, for either mobile or stationary use. Cast-iron supports ensure a firm footing and it can either be bolted to the floor or fitted with steerable double castors. The line-up is completed by the CP Optipanel housing (depth 50 or 100 mm) with integrated 15" or 17" TFT display, an IP65 table-top keyboard and a mouse with IP67 mousepad.
