Metcase expands Combimet 19-inch rack case range
Now the largest range of 19-inch rack cases available from Metcase, the Combimet is available as original, open-top, smooth/solid-top and super-deep versions.
Described as the company’s most advanced and most cost-effective 19-inch enclosure, it is suitable for use in a range of applications including networking, communications, sound / studio systems, laboratory instruments and industrial computers / control technology.
The aluminium enclosures have a flat, bezel-less front for faster manufacturing in custom sizes. Distinctive front panel handles make it quick and easy to pull the cases from racks for inspection and maintenance, added Metcase.
The robust design has removable top, base and rear panels. The top and base can be specified as vented or unvented as standard. Inside there are mounting holes in the base for PCBs and chassis. All panels have M4 earth studs.
Combimet is available in heights of 1U to 6U and depths of 265mm and 365mm as standard. A 24-inch / 609.6mm super-deep version offers more space for server rack applications.
The open-top Combimet version T maximises ventilation. This version is 2U / 3U high and 365mm deep. The smooth / solid-top Combimet has an unvented wraparound cover and removable base and rear panels. Unlike the original Combimet, this version has no visible fixing screws on the top. It is 1U high and 265 / 365mm deep.
Combimet 19-inch rack cases are available in light grey (RAL 7035) or black (RAL 9005) as standard with custom colours available on request. The front panel is anodised aluminium.
The enclosures can be specified in custom heights up to 12U and also in bespoke widths and depths. Other modification services include custom front panels, CNC machining, fixings and inserts, and photo-quality digital printing of legends, logos and graphics.
