20860614

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF 20860-614 is a 4U rack mount chassis from the MultipacPRO series, designed for horizontal board assembly. Constructed from aluminum with a natural silver finish, it measures 403 mm in width and 460 mm in depth. The unit features an 84 HP horizontal pitch and complies with RoHS standards. It serves as a robust, low-weight enclosure for mounting electronic boards or heavy components within a 19-inch rack system.

Feature Summary

• Designed for horizontal board assembly within standard 19-inch rack systems
• Constructed from lightweight aluminum material for structural integrity
• Provides IP20 protection rating for internal component safety

Applications

• Horizontal PCB mounting in industrial control cabinets
• Integration of non-standard components such as transformers
• Rack-mounted equipment housing requiring robust mechanical support

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official nVent SCHROFF documentation to ensure correct depth and configuration. Confirm that the 460 mm depth aligns with your system requirements, as variations exist within the 20860 series. Ensure compliance with local RoHS regulations if applicable to your deployment environment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when horizontal board mounting is required rather than vertical. The 4U height and 84 HP pitch accommodate standard European card formats. Consider the 460 mm depth for adequate rear cabling space. Verify that the aluminum construction meets thermal and mechanical needs for the intended load.

Part Context

This chassis belongs to the Schroff MultipacPRO series, which specializes in 19-inch rack enclosures. The 20860 series specifically targets applications requiring sturdy yet lightweight aluminum housings for horizontal integration. It is part of a broader ecosystem of rack components designed for modular industrial electronics assembly.

Replacement Considerations

Check the official nVent SCHROFF cross-reference list for direct substitutes. Alternative depths in the 20860 series may require re-evaluation of cable management. Ensure any replacement maintains the 4U height and 84 HP pitch compatibility.
