SUPPLEMENT ENCLOSURE SOLUTIONS A FLEXIBLE ENCLOSURE SOLUTION WITH MANY OPTIONS


Now available from HEITEC is the Ripac Vario Module family extension, described as a cost-efficient, robust and flexible enclosure solution which offers multiple design options as well as an off-the-shelf basis for the quick and easy, precise adaption to customer-specific applications. Optionally available as a system or table-top case and rack-mount enclosure for installation into 19in


racks, and in versions of 2-7U and different widths (42, 63 and 84HP) as standard, as well as a customised variant in alternative sizes, it is individually configurable and deployable in multiple ways. It is also compatible to the existing Ripac Vario module program. The mounting of various backplanes such as VPX or CompactPCI Serial is possible as are different power


supply and fan solutions, including fan-less operation based on specifically perforated top and bottom covers. In addition, the case can be easily turned from a table-top to a rack-mount enclosure. EMC variants to the Ripac Vario module versions which include conductive contact points, EMC gaskets and a specifically designed structure, are available. By using variable extensions and horizontal rails, the enclosures can be expanded nearly arbitrarily or extended by mounting plates for free wiring. A wide range of accessories consisting of top and bottom covers, front and rear panels, flanges, positioning feet and carrying handles, as well as mounting brackets, enables great flexibility. With the enclosures, the side walls, side panels (system chassis) and cross profiles are made of extruded aluminium, while the corner trims are made of die-cast zinc. The instrument case can be customised to the respective corporate design in RAL colours. The family offers enclosure solutions for applications


demanding robustness, security as well as quick and easy individual adoption or expansion. For instance, it is ideally suited for the assembly of microcomputer systems, laboratory devices, test and measurement instruments, etc.

Desk stations and wall holders are now available for OKW’s DATEC-COMPACT handheld electronic enclosures for outdoor use. The company created the range to meet growing demand for mobile applications in harsh environments: data recording and transfer, measuring and control, stock and sales logging. The new desk stations and wall mounted brackets enable fast and easy charging and data transfer, and also feature integrated contacts as standard. The two-part enclosures are rated to IP65 and are assembled


with tamper-proof Torx T10 screws. They have been designed specifically for operation with gloved hands. DATEC-COMPACT desk stations feature gold-plated charging contacts. Like the enclosures, these are moulded from UV-stable ASA+PC-FR (UL 94 V-0) to cope with prolonged exposure to sunlight. The wall holders provide a strong and secure cradle for the enclosures and feature a large recess at the base to allow cable access for charging and data transfer. The desk stations and wall holders are available for all three sizes of DATEC-COMPACT enclosures: S 136 x 74 x 32mm, M 172 x 92 x 39mm and L 206 x 110 x 47mm.

PANEL MOUNTING INDICATORS


With the new range of BEKA intrinsically safe and Type n rugged panel mounting indicators, it is possible to safely install 4/20mA loop powered indicators in Ex e increased safety and Ex p pressurised cabinets located in Zones 1 or 2 and in Ex n cabinets located in Zone 2, without invalidating the cabinet's certification. These IECEx and ATEX certified


indicators are housed in a 316 stainless steel case with an impact resistant IP66 front. The instrument certificates define in which certified cabinets and in which Zones the indicators may be installed. The Ex nA non-sparking


certified indicators do not require a Zener barrier or galvanic isolator and may be installed in Zone 2 cabinets. For Zone 1 applications the intrinsically safe models should be used. Both are supported by Application Guides, AG310 for Ex nA and AG300 for Ex i applications. These new rugged indicators


include models with four 15mm high digits and five 11mm high digits plus a 31 segment bargraph. All have an operating temperature between -40˚C and +70˚C

New from Molex Incorporated is the OptoConnect Custom Optical Enclosures. Designed to simplify complex fibre optic mapping issues, the OptoConnect fibre routing system using integrated FlexPlane circuitry provides a complete end-to-end optical management system for high density telecom and datacom equipment used in communication systems for aerospace and defence networks. “Advanced network architectures are driving complex fibre


optic interconnection topologies, which are nearly impossible to implement with patch cord based connections,” states Tom Marrapode, director of marketing, Molex. Fully tested and NEBS compliant, the fibre optic enclosures handle the most complex routing schemes to greatly reduce intra-system cabling footprints and increase system reliability.


S8 JUNE 2015 | DESIGN SOLUTIONS: SUPPLEMENT


By integrating high density fibre optic circuits, interconnects and optional passive components, the OptoConnect enclosure system can streamline complex ingress and egress fibre port mapping for interconnect intensive technologies, including mesh networks, wavelength selective switching,


and software defined networking/network function


virtualisation topologies. Complementary products such as MPO and LC loopback connectors and MTP/MPO LC cable assemblies fill out the offering to provide a complete optical interconnect solution set. Molex can also design an enclosure to meet customer product specifications.
