Compact towers keep hot boards cooler
Hybricon Corp has released a new line of nine-slot portable towers designed for today's high power boards.
Their choice of best products was based on performance or innovation or other quality that caught their attention.
Hybricon's RME1021M enclosures provide a significant improvement in cooling capability for high power ruggedised applications.
The power dissipation levels of today's extremely dense CPU and DSP boards are dramatically higher than in the past and keeping these high power boards cool is a challenge.
The RME21M enclosure meets that challenge by employing dual DC impellers powered by a dedicated power supply output and patented CoolSlot air deflecting card guides to improve airflow.
Thermal simulation of the enclosure shows an average airflow of 507 litre/min, which is sufficient cooling for 145W per slot.
The RME1021M enclosures provide high quality ruggedised construction and a compact stackable design for vertically mounted cards.
The enclosures are designed to meet MIL-STD-461 EMI radiated and conducted emissions and susceptibility standards as well as MIL-STD-810, MIL-S-901, and MIL-STD-167 environmental requirements (a commercial version, the RME821C series, is also available).
Included are front and rear cover panels with honeycomb inlet and exhaust and provisions for shielded connectors for I/O.
The enclosures are available with 21-slot CompactPCI, VME64x, VME or VXS backplanes and up to 2400W of embedded power.
A closed loop fan speed control has programmable settings for minimum and maximum speeds and temperature break points.
