19in rack mount enclosures for outdoor applications

24 August 2011

All too often it is believed that 19in equipment is only suitable for the indoor environment and that an outdoor application would involve the development of a special enclosure at huge cost. Not so, says Rittal, whose standard range of outdoor enclosures, based on the TS 8, have a whole range of accessories available, including a full range of 19in components suitable for outside use.

Customers can select from a large range of 19in angles, in varying U heights, which can be fitted at the front, rear, or both, to a range of static or adjustable shelves, to swing frames and a host of cable management that will meet most requirements.

Coupled with a range of specifically designed outdoor heating and cooling options from 10W to 800W heaters, simple fans and filters or heat exchangers and air-conditioning units, Rittal can create the correct environment for the installed equipment wherever it is finally located.

All this can be installed within a high security outdoor enclosure manufactured from a range of alternative materials, with global approvals and high IP ratings.
