Verotec has shipped the first batch of 35 x special Verotec cases, destined for EDF Energy in France. The customer required a 4U, 19”, 500mm deep enclosure to house computer equipment in an industrial environment.

The cases had to be stylish yet ro-bust, rated to IP32 and provide a good level of EMC. Also required was a compatible vent pattern for cooling, a lockable, hinged transparent door and cus-tom rear panel for cable access. Our standard Verotec product was proposed to the customer as a key feature in its design is the option of fitting foam gaskets and Beryllium-Copper finger strips in specific are-as to improve IP and EMC perfor-mance. A full working 3D model of the finished design was submitted, to the customer, for approval before manufacturing commenced.
