To aid in-rack thermal management METCASE has launched ventilated versions of its all new COMBIMET 19” rack case series. These new rack cases allow unrestricted airflow through the enclosures via a matrix of specially designed ventilation slots which are provided in the top and base panels.

These 19” rack enclosures are designed to conform to DIN 41494 and IEC 297-1 standards for 19” equipment, and typical applications for the new models will include rack mounted test and measurement systems, networking and communications equipment.

COMBIMET 19” cases feature two ergonomic front panel handles which are designed for comfortable carrying prior to installation in the rack.

The range is offered in 1U, 2U and 3U heights in two depths of 265mm and 365mm. Special sizes can be manufactured on demand, and the enclosures are powder painted in light grey, RAL 7035 or black, RAL 9005.

Each COMBIMET consists of an anodised 19” front panel with two front panel handles, two side panels, the top and base and a recessed removable rear panel. The top and base panels are fully perforated with ventilation slots and include a series of holes for fitting PCB mounting pillars, or the internal mounting plate kit (accessory).

All the fabricated parts are fitted with M4 earth studs for electrical continuity and every model is supplied fully assembled.

METCASE offers a full customising service on the COMBIMET 19” rack cases with made to measure sizes, CNC punching, milling and drilling, and silk screen printing, thus providing fully finished enclosures ready for fitting the electronic components.
