20848605

Overview

The Schroff 20848605 is a metal aluminum front panel designed for electronic packaging applications. It measures 426.40mm in length, 128.40mm in width, and 2.50mm in height (16.787" L x 5.055" W x 0.098" H). The component features a natural finish and is RoHS compliant. It serves as a modular faceplate element within the Schroff subrack system, providing structural integration and aesthetic continuity for equipment installations.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable aluminum metal for robust mechanical protection
• Designed with a natural surface finish for standard industrial aesthetics
• Engineered to integrate seamlessly into modular subrack frameworks
• Complies with RoHS environmental standards for restricted hazardous substances

Applications

• Front faceplate installation for electronic subracks
• Modular chassis assembly in industrial control systems
• Equipment housing integration for measurement units
• Rack-mounted system customization and expansion

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number 20848605 matches the required dimensions of 426.40mm by 128.40mm before ordering. Confirm compatibility with the intended Schroff subrack series, as panel fitment depends on the specific rack model and mounting configuration. Ensure the natural finish meets project specifications. Check for RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the deployment environment. Cross-reference with official nVent SCHROFF documentation to validate availability and technical accuracy.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 4U equivalent width panel is required for Schroff modular systems. The 128.40mm width corresponds to standard module spacing. Consider the natural aluminum finish for non-painted applications. Verify that the 2.50mm thickness aligns with the structural requirements of the mounting rails. This part functions strictly as a cosmetic and protective cover rather than an active electronic component.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent SCHROFF family of electronics packaging solutions. Schroff specializes in subracks, backplanes, and power supplies for industrial and telecommunications environments. The 20848605 is a passive structural accessory used to complete the front appearance of rack-mounted assemblies. It complements active modules and power supplies within the broader product ecosystem.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available for direct replacement. Compatibility depends on the specific subrack model being serviced. Consult official nVent SCHROFF catalogs for alternative panel configurations or custom fabrication options if exact matching parts are discontinued.
