Give us a call today! Our sales teams are well qualified to discuss your requirements.



Cabinets and Wall Mounted Enclosures

We have developed an impressive portfolio of electric cabinets for various applications. Many of these are application specific, such as the etsirack for public and private telecommunications networks, or the Hoffman PROLINE for automation systems and industrial use. But we also offer universal cabinets that are ideal for almost any application. They offer static load-carrying capacities of up to 800kg, and feature variable ventilation concepts, both active and passive.

Also available are 19" electronic cabinets, double-walled outdoor protection cabinets, miniracks, as well as numerous accessories. Schroff is also pleased to supply a comprehensive range of robustly made wall-mounted enclosures for a range of environments. We have low cost cases, corrosive environment models, industrial environment models, cases ideal for fibre optic cable distribution, and a range of accessories.



19" Cases, Table Top Cases, Tower Cases, Subracks, and 19" Chassis

With aluminium and steel options, we have a range of electrical cases for various applications. They include standard 19" cases, table top cases, portable cases, tower cases, and a range of subracks and
19" chassis. All are robustly built to an exceptionally high standard. Please follow the link to our website where you’ll find further information and specifications for all of our products. A range of accessories are also available.

Modules

Our modular systems offer a fast, future-proof and cost effective alternative to standard ready-built units.

It's often the case that additions might be made to the electrical installation, so replacing an entire unit can be extremely costly. Modular components allow you to change/replace the installation without the associated costs of a brand new unit. This also means that you can continually update your installation with the very latest technology. Most importantly, it can all be done quickly and easily. We make available shielded and unshielded front panels, bottom hinged and side hinged panels, plug-in units, frame-type plug-in units, HF frame plug-in units, PCB accessories such as covers and mounting brackets, FPC front element systems, connectors and Busbars. Visit our website to find out more about our modular systems. 



Systems

Schroff supplies a wide range of systems for various applications. Our AdvancedTCA chassis is designed for assembly in ETSI, 23" or 19" cabinets and is NEBS prepared and UL recognised. We also supply AdvancedMC modules designed for mounting in AdvancedMC carriers, which are in turn mounted into the Advanced TCA chassis. We also have Micro TCA modular high-speed systems, up to 40Gbit/s, as well as CompactPCI serial and CompactPCI Plus IO systems up to 32 Gbit/s. For more information on our systems, follow the link to the Schroff website.

Power Supply

Schroff UK Ltd provides 19" pluggable power supplies that are both compact and highly efficient. These are available as AC/DC switched mode power supplies, DC/DC linear regulators, and DC/DC converters. Open-frame AC/DC switched mode power supplies have 3 or 4 output voltages and feature VME bus signalling and fan monitoring. A range of accessories are available, including connectors, z-rails, coding, and wall/horizontal rail installation fittings. We also supply complete power systems offering up to 300 W or up to 1000 W in output power. These can be assembled in 3 U subracks. Full information and brochures are available from the Schroff website.

Backplanes and Test Adaptors

Schroff UK Ltd is your premier choice of supplier when you need backplanes and test adaptors. We offer AdvancedTCA, MicroTCA, CPCI, CPCI Express, PXI, VME64 extension, VMEbus, VXS, universal, and power backplanes. Several obsolescent models are also available. We also supply test adaptors for testing boards during operation, all of which have measuring fields for voltage only or voltage and current measurement. A Large range of test adaptors are available, with IEC 60603-2/DIN 41612 and DIN 41617 connectors ready to be shipped from stock.

Climate Control

Electrical installations require appropriate climate control systems to prevent damage caused by excessively hot and cold temperatures. That’s why we offer 19" fan racks with a high airflow rate and reliable operational performance, enabling directed heat dissipation. These can be adapted to fit onto subracks. We also supply ergonomically designed side-mounted air conditioners offering protection levels up to IP 54. These can be mounted on doors as well as side panels. Heating power systems (20-550 watt) are also available. Quick and simple to fit, our heaters come with or without a fan. Schroff also supplies air filtered fans which are simply clipped on, offering ingress protection type IP 54 to IP 55 under IEC 60529.

Lastly, we're proud to introduce the Varistar LHX, a cabinet platform with an innovative water cooled heat exchanger. For more information on any of these products, simply follow the link.
