Electrical Review Logo

Foremost Electronics, the Essex based specialist distributor of electromechanical   components, has announced the introduction of a range of 1U, 19" rack mountable 'pizza box' enclosures.

The new Elma Slimkit 10 is a flexible enclosure solution for free standing or 19" rack mounted systems. The basic chassis can easily be transformed into a complete case by adding a rear panel and top cover to the basic mounting chassis. The elegant design allows numerous enclosure combinations to be assembled depending on the application. Fitted with a rugged and wear resistant aluminium front panel the chassis is available with or without perforations for optimised thermal solutions and is available in a number of attractive finishes for individual product tailoring

Typical applications for the Slimkit 10 from Foremost Electronics include low profile test equipment, control and instrumentation systems, telecoms, networking, alarm, audio and wireless products and signal conversion equipment.

Alan Cook, managing director of Foremost Electronics commented, "The addition of these high quality Pizza Box 19" enclosures complements our existing range of Emech products and allows our customers to buy complete connectivity, switching and enclosure solutions from one source. Our goal is to provide a one-stop-shop for all the interface, connectivity and packaging needs of system and instrument manufacturers."

Standard features include aluminium front panel, 0.75mm pre-galvanised sheet steel frame, vibration proof construction, fast assembly, easy access, removable front and rear panels for ease of machining and EMC shielding without additional gaskets. The 1U high chassis may be specified with a base tray of either 240mm or 360mm, with or without perforations for air flow. Accessories include handles, which may be specified in a range of colours, tilting or fixed feet for free-standing applications and an earthing kit to allow enclosures to meet the requirements of EN/VDE/SEV safety standards.
