New AC fan from Aerco
The UF60D series is a range of small, AC equipment fans from Fulltech that is available in the UK from Aerco. Built in a 60 x 60 x 30mm frame size, the smallest AC axial fan frame available, this new fan lends itself to many applications that require small, densely packed electronic enclosures or housings that will not accommodate the previously smallest fan frame size of 80 x 80 x 25mm.
Retrofit modular cold aisle/hot aisle system fits non-uniform height bayed racks
The benefits of reduced energy consumption and improved performance by adding cold aisles to rows of data centre servers are well know, but if the cabinets in the row are, as is often the case, of different heights, retrofit implementation has previously been difficult, requiring custom components. Schroff UK, one of Europe’s leading suppliers of datacoms infrastructure hardware, has developed a simple low cost modular system of standard compon...
Dual-thread PCB retainer design cuts installation time
The new Series 236 Card-Lok from Schroff incorporates a dual-thread design that allows the device to be compressed from both ends by turning a single screw, which means that it can be tightened or released twice as quickly as conventional PCB retainers, thereby helping to reduce installation time.
Extruded aluminium Eurocard cases
Vero Technologies has introduced three styles of extruded aluminium instrument cases, designed to accept three quarter and full width Eurocard PCBs. Circuit boards are mounted horizontally into multi-position internal slots in the body of the case, which has a black anodised finish for good resistance to wear and tear and improved heat dissipation. The smaller three quarter width E003 range is 40mm in height and will accept a 75mm wide PCB into f...

Combining as it does quick snap-in design and planetary roller cam motion which enables soft compression of door gaskets from 10mm to 20mm, this new half-turn IP65 latch is expected to find favour with designers, manufacturers and installers of vibration prone control equipment. This is expected to include constructi...
