An enclosure for all outdoor applications

11 April 2012

Rittal’s CS Toptec range of outdoor enclosures, based on a stainless steel TS 8 form frame, can be stripped down to the frame to enable maximum access during equipment installation. When complete, the housing is rated to IP55. Space between panels is minimised to avoid the need for tools to gain access, and the hinges (on both front and rear doors) are hidden from view.

Available in steel or aluminium, the twin-walled CS Toptec is effectively a weatherproof 19in rack, which can be fitted with standard range of cooling units, different handle and security options, and universal mounting of standard rack-mount electronic equipment.

Rittal provides a full service, from the calculations for heat loss and solar gain, through to the inclusion of a range of flat-pack, pre-cast concrete plinths for quick installation on site. Rittal’s expertise also runs to the heating (condensation) and cooling systems necessary to maintain the lifespan of standard electronic units in an otherwise hostile environment.

Thanks to its main frame construction, a sited enclosure can be expanded at any time by baying the equivalent depth and height enclosure in the Rittal CS Toptec range.
