30848466

Overview

The Schroff 30848466 is a Type C front panel designed for plug-in units, specifically compatible with the VME64x and CompactPCI standards. It features a 3U height and 10HP width configuration. The component is constructed from metal, typically aluminum, and finished with an anodized surface treatment to enhance durability and corrosion resistance. This panel serves as the primary interface for module extraction and installation within standard rack systems.

Feature Summary

• Designed for Type C plug-in unit configurations
• Compatible with VME64x and CompactPCI architectures
• Anodized metal construction for environmental resilience

Applications

• VMEbus system integration
• CompactPCI chassis assembly
• Industrial control rack mounting

Procurement Notes

Verify compatibility with specific extractor handle mechanisms, as Type C panels often require matching cantilever handles. Confirm that the 3U x 10HP dimensions align with the target chassis slot specifications. Ensure the anodized finish meets the required environmental protection standards for the deployment location. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any recent material change notices or design revisions.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a shielded or standard front interface is required for 3U high modules in a 10HP wide slot. It is suitable for applications demanding robust mechanical support for plug-in cards. Consider the anodized finish for improved longevity in industrial environments compared to bare metal alternatives.

Part Context

Schroff, now part of nVent, specializes in electronic packaging solutions.
