20849152

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 20849152 is an Advanced MC Module Mechanism, specifically identified as the AMC.0 R2.0 variant. It is a complete pull-handle mechanism designed for single mid-size modules within the AdvancedMC series. The unit is engineered to facilitate hot-swap operations by incorporating a design that activates microswitches upon handle manipulation. Additionally, the assembly includes an integrated light pipe to provide visual status indication. This component serves as a critical interface element for module insertion and extraction in rack-mounted systems.

Feature Summary

• Complete pull-handle mechanism designed for microswitch activation during hot-swap operations
• Includes integrated light pipe for visual status indication
• Compatible with all nVent SCHROFF AdvancedMC modules

Applications

• Hot-swap module insertion and extraction in rack systems
• Microswitch activation for module presence detection
• Visual status indication via integrated light pipe

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision code (R2.0) and module size compatibility (single mid-size) against your chassis requirements. Confirm that the target system utilizes the AdvancedMC standard. Ensure the order matches the exact part number 20849152 to guarantee proper fitment and functional integration with existing microswitches and lighting assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this component only if the application requires a complete pull-handle assembly for AdvancedMC modules. It is suitable for designs needing integrated hot-swap actuation and optical signaling. Verify mechanical dimensions against the rack panel cutout specifications. Consider the R2.0 revision for updated manufacturing standards or compatibility improvements over previous iterations.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent SCHROFF AdvancedMC product family, which provides standardized interfaces for modular electronic equipment. The 20849152 is a specialized accessory rather than a standalone electronic device, functioning as a mechanical interface component. It complements the broader range of rack accessories and backplane solutions offered by the manufacturer for industrial and telecommunications applications.

Replacement Considerations

Check for official substitute part numbers from nVent SCHROFF documentation. Previous revisions may exist but require verification of mechanical and electrical compatibility. Generic equivalents are not recommended due to precise fitment requirements for microswitch activation and light pipe alignment.
