Robust subracks for extreme conditions

14 November 2007 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

High-quality electronic systems need to be protected, especially when they are exposed to extreme loads such as constant acceleration and vibration, to ensure smooth operation of the whole system. This type of application calls for subrack solutions with high mechanical stability. Ripac Solid from Rittal is a new development designed specifically for this kind of situation. Highly torsion-resistant rails with double screw fastenings on the end faces guarantee high mechanical stability.

Ripac Solid was designed precisely in accordance with IEC 60297-3-101-102-103 (19-inch mechanical system) and has passed tests and inspections in accordance with DIN EN/IEC 61587-1 (mechanical load test) and DIN EN 50155 (IEC 61373, International Electrotechnical Commission, 'railway applications - electronic rolling stock equipment'). The range is supplemented by a large selection of accessories from the Ripac Modular Toolkit.

The RoHs-compliant 19-inch subrack is available in 3 U and 6 U versions with a depth of 245 mm. The side panels are made of passivated 2,5 mm thick aluminium and the horizontal rails are constructed from passivated extruded aluminium section.
