The Electronics division of HEITEC has expanded its popular RiCase housing range upon customers’ request with enclosures for flexible, modular use and heavy loads. This line, suitable for 19" rack-mount as well as for the mounting of components, meets many market requirements for ultra-stable table-top and system enclosures.

Test and measurement equipment and systems, simulation technology and laboratory devices require ever more complex, comprehensive electronics to cope with their multiple tasks. If the systems, for example, are intended for use at different locations, it quickly becomes a challenge to transport them because of their extensive 'inner life'.

HEITEC’s customised RiCase systems can deal with this by featuring special rolls and handholds designed for heavy load up to 80kg. These handholds, instead of protruding handles, mean an additional, space-saving advantage for space constraint applications and are ergonomically designed. The rolls are designed in a way that even driving over cables is possible without any issues. Another common requirement is enhanced dust protection which can be easily implemented by using RiCase accessories according to IP protection class 52.

The RiCase family thus provides an excellent basis for applications requiring maximum flexibility and it particularly convinces by its modular alignment, robustness and stability. Its models are as catalog products available in three standard decorative colors, up to 12U height, 84HP width and 540mm depth, as system as well as table-top case and with an extremely variable interior construction and auxiliary components. Moreover, they even can be tailor-made up to 24U height and 780mm depth, hence, the RiCase family is extremely scalable and adaptable to a huge variety of design options and customer needs.

Special variants can be realised without any additional reinforcing elements due to the patented and very stable modular basic structure of the profiles. For example, simulations in the automotive industry cover many different technical areas and therefore require various electronics in the case. Both, changing placement in the housing as well as the electronics packaging, can be implemented quickly and easily with RiCase enclosures. In addition, design aspects and optics do not miss out: The corner caps and plastic decorative elements of the family can be colour-adapted to customer requests for a coherent overall appearance of the application.
