ATCA system housing features latest backplanes
A 19in ATCA system housing comes with a choice of next-generation backplanes: either in dual-dual-star technology or as a point-to-point switching full mesh version for ultrafast connection speeds.
In addition to a range of standard screwdriver and shaft operation options, Elma can offer a complete customisation service to develop models to meet specific needs.
The switches are available as standard with either 10 or 16 positions, and in vertical and horizontal versions for either PCB or panel mounting.
Standard output formats are BCD, HEX or their complements, as well as Gray code.
Adjustable stops can be fitted during manufacture to limit both maximum and minimum settings, and special shaft lengths and profiles can also be supplied.
To meet the widest range of applications, the maximum operating voltage is 42V, while the gold-plated alloy contacts are rated to a maximum switching current of 200mA, and a contact resistance of less than 50mOhm.
The Type 07 is designed for operation from -25 to +85C, and will withstand 10g vibration from 10-2000Hz.
