31596792

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 31596792 is an ACTA front panel designed for rack mounting applications. It features a width of 8 units and a height of 6 horizontal pitch (HP) modules. The component is constructed from aluminum material and includes integrated earthing provisions compliant with IEC standards. This specific model serves as a modular faceplate solution within the ACTA series, providing structural support and interface access for electronic modules installed in standard 19-inch equipment racks.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable aluminum alloy for robust mechanical protection
• Designed with standardized 8U x 6HP module dimensions for precise fitment
• Incorporates integrated earthing contacts to ensure electrical safety compliance

Applications

• Installation in 19-inch industrial electronics cabinets
• Front-facing interface for modular test and measurement systems
• Rack-mounted subrack assembly configurations

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact dimensional tolerance and surface finish requirements against your specific chassis design before ordering. Confirm that the 8U by 6HP configuration matches your intended module layout. Ensure compatibility with the specific ACTA series backplane or subrack system you are integrating this panel into. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest documentation for any updates to the earthing contact specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed aluminum faceplate is required for an 8U high, 6HP wide opening. It is suitable for applications needing reliable grounding through the panel structure. Consider this option if the application does not require ventilation holes or hinged access mechanisms. Ensure the surrounding rack frame supports the specified module count and depth constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent SCHROFF ACTA series, which specializes in modular rack accessories and front panels. The ACTA line provides scalable solutions for organizing electronic components within standard enclosures. This specific item functions as a static closure plate rather than a functional device, serving primarily to define the module area and maintain the structural integrity of the rack assembly.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific 8U x 6HP configuration. Verify compatibility with existing rack frames before attempting to use alternative generic panels.
