20860635

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF 20860-635 is a 5U aluminum rack mount chassis from the 20860 Series, designed for horizontal board assembly. It features an enclosed metal construction with a depth of 460 mm and a height of 221.5 mm. The unit offers 84 HP (Horizontal Positions) for module integration. Constructed from aluminum, it provides a robust yet low-weight enclosure solution. The chassis meets IP 20 protection standards in accordance with relevant safety classifications.

Feature Summary

• Detachable front and rear panels facilitate easy machining and customization
• Robust aluminum construction ensures structural integrity while maintaining low weight
• Designed specifically for horizontal board assembly within standard 19-inch racks

Applications

• Horizontal board assembly in industrial control systems
• Integration of electronic modules requiring 19-inch rack mounting
• Custom equipment enclosures needing detachable panel access

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required horizontal positions align with the 84 HP specification. Confirm that the 460 mm depth fits within the intended installation space. Ensure compatibility with standard 19-inch rack rails. Check if the IP 20 rating meets environmental requirements for the deployment location. Validate that the aluminum material satisfies any specific thermal or grounding needs.

Selection Notes

Select this model when horizontal board assembly is required within a 5U form factor. Consider the 460 mm depth for spatial planning. The detachable panel feature is advantageous for custom machining needs. Aluminum construction offers a balance of strength and weight. Ensure the application does not require higher ingress protection than IP 20.

Part Context

This component belongs to the nVent SCHROFF 20860 Series, which comprises multipacPRO rack mount enclosures. These series are engineered for robust, low-weight applications in horizontal board assembly environments. The 20860 series generally supports various depths and heights to accommodate different module configurations within standard rack frameworks.
