34560242

Overview

The nVent SCHROFF part number 34560242 is a horizontal rack rail designed for 19-inch equipment mounting. It belongs to the H-SL Heavy Duty series, featuring a short lip configuration suitable for high mechanical loads. The component has a depth of 218.44 mm and provides 42 HP (Horizontal Pitch) spacing. Constructed from anodized aluminum, it ensures durability in industrial environments. This rail is RoHS compliant and engineered to support front-mounted hardware within standard rack enclosures.

Feature Summary

• Heavy-duty construction with short lip design for enhanced mechanical load capacity
• Anodized aluminum material providing corrosion resistance and structural integrity
• Standard 42 HP spacing compatible with 19-inch rack systems

Applications

• Mounting heavy industrial control modules in 19-inch racks
• Supporting network infrastructure equipment requiring robust front rails
• Industrial automation panels needing high mechanical stability

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required horizontal pitch matches the 42 HP specification of this rail. Confirm compatibility with the specific front panel thickness and mounting hole patterns of the target equipment. Ensure the anodized aluminum finish meets environmental requirements for the installation site. Check if additional rear supports are needed as this item is a front horizontal rail only.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high mechanical load bearing is critical for the mounted devices. The 42 HP width accommodates standard 19-inch equipment widths. Consider the 218.44 mm depth to ensure sufficient space behind the rack front. Compare against other H-SL variants if different lip lengths or depths are required for specific chassis designs.

Part Context

This component is part of the nVent SCHROFF rack accessories portfolio, specifically the H-SL series. These rails are designed to integrate with broader rack enclosure systems like PropacPRO or EuropacPRO. They serve as primary mounting interfaces for front-facing electronic modules, ensuring alignment and secure attachment within standardized 19-inch frameworks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 42 HP width, 218.44 mm depth, and H-SL short lip profile. Verify material composition and anodization quality. Cross-reference with manufacturer catalogs for equivalent heavy-duty front rails with identical mounting geometries.
