Schroff has expanded its multipacPRO range of 19-inch chassis with the addition of a model that is made entirely from aluminium parts.
Suitable for applications as diverse as audio equipment and test and measurement instrumentation, the new chassis provides a lightweight yet sturdy housing for either PCBs or non-standard components. It features high-stability side profiles and is available in 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 U heights, with external dimensions in accordance with IEC 60297-3-100, -101 and -105. Top covers and base plates can be specified as plain, perforated or with machined holes for mounting EN 60603 (DIN 41612) connectors or insulated backplanes. The rear panel is detachable to allows easy machining.
In addition, Schroff’s ServicePLUS modification service enables the chassis to be customised to suit individual requirements for drilling, cut-outs and screen printing. The standard chassis achieves an EMC shielding level of 30 dB(A) at 1 GHz, while for higher-performance applications, an EMC gasketing kit is available. Other optional accessories include front handles, guide rails and telescopic slides.
The multipacPRO chassis can be supplied in kit form from stock or fully assembled by Schroff’s technicians in only 7 working days. Even with modifications, fully assembled units can be dispatched in just 10 working days.
