SRS custom builds 1U rack frame For Metawave
Stoke-on-Trent based Metawave needed a particular type of 1U rack frame that would meet EMC regulations but no rack frame manufacturer has an off-the-peg solution. SRS produced one though.
SRS up to the job for complex server rack design
SRS was selected as the company that would work together with CCC and its designers to form a three-way partnership to develop the mechanical aspects of the Freevision subrack and front panels.
These can be adapted to suit desktop, wall mount and floor standing enclosures.
The moulded 'spider' corner joint provides the connection between the height, depth and width frame members.
The enclosure has good resilient performance under shock and vibration conditions as a result of careful material selection using moulded corner joints produced a need for internal earth wires.
This was achieved through 3D modelling and SRS has incorporated an earthing clip within each corner joint.
This electrically connects all the parts for earthing purposes and the clip is then concealed by means of a cosmetic cover cap.
To prevent the covers from rattle and to provide a level of protection from ingress of dust and water splash, seals have been designed to work in between the spider and frame member ends, along with extruded rubber gaskets that run along the edge of the panel.
Wedging the seals into the extrusion provides the correct level of seal and ways of deflecting the water away from the seal in order to prevent water penetration.
All Patents and Registered Designs have been filed through the Company's Patent agents.
