Product line 05 / 12 · Desktop Enclosures
Benchtop cases that look like instruments, not boxes — from A-type 3U / 4U instrument enclosures to 2U – 7U system cases that house complete 19″ electronics.
Two families share one idea: a benchtop case with 19″ discipline inside. The A-type desktop enclosure turns a subrack into a free-standing unit with extruded side profiles and carry handles. Our 2U – 7U system cases go further — 19″-compatible internal dimensions for euroboards, CompactPCI and VME assemblies, with a symmetrical aluminium construction (identical front and rear), a shielded board cage and a base level of EMC shielding that can be upgraded when the project demands more. Three trims cover every use: cover strips for a clean look, front handles for portability, or a 19″ mounting bracket that parks the case in a rack. Ventilation comes engineered — a slit in the base plate and a perforated rear panel, with a filtered-air version available.
