For the use of embedded PCs, Fischer Elektronik offers specially developed cases with a modern design and practical and functional features. The specially shaped aluminium case profiles of the EMB series have integrated external cooling fins for better heat dissipation and internal guide channels for sliding square nuts or threaded strips, which are used to secure the mainboard by means of spacer bolts of variable length. In addition, the lateral guide grooves, also integrated into the case profiles, allow for different mainboard formats as well as non-standard PCBs, electronic components or mounting plates. Front cover plates and a 2 mm thick base plate complete the robust and durable case design.
Different mounting options
Depending on the requirements and application, all EMB enclosures can be fitted with mounting brackets for wall and ceiling mounting or with a DIN rail mounting for DIN EN 50022 rails. Fischer Elektronik has added a new version to the EMB series. The new case, part number EMB 215 T, is similar to the existing EMB 215 case in terms of dimensions and heat dissipation characteristics, but instead of extruded threaded channels, it has T-slots into which threaded strips can be integrated to secure the base plate. This design is particularly advantageous in applications where the baseplate may need to be removed from time to time for replacement or servicing of electronic devices, etc., or where the case is to be used in a rugged application subject to vibration, e.g. on a machine, using mounting brackets or mounting rails. All sizes of the embedded PC enclosure are available as standard in three different finishes (natural anodised, black anodised or a combination of both) and four lengths (105, 150, 200, 250mm). Additional mechanical machining, surface treatment and labelling are available to customer specification.
