Case and Installation
Any measuring instrument requires special protection when exposed to harsh environmental conditions. Proper insulation and electromagnetic shielding are essential for highest measurement accuracy and lowest susceptibility to errors. The suitable CS01 DSUB15 Aluminum Case for all our instruments is made of a high-quality alloy and the surface is anodized to increase the mechanical and chemical resistance.
For easy mounting in a 19" rack chassis, silicon systems offers the RM01 Rack-Mount Kit. It is directly attached to the device and allows a compact and clear installation of up to 16 devices in a single 19" rack chassis.
DSUB-15 Break-Out Connector
Most devices have a 15-pin standard D-SUB female connector with gold-plated contacts. The mating connectors are easily available and offered for a reasonable price. For some applications, especially for test setups or prototyping projects, fixed wiring can be disadvantageous because soldering or crimping of the signal lines takes more time and changes cannot be easily made.
In this case, the D-SUB 15 Breakout Connectors are a good choice. These are plugged directly into the measuring instrument and the lines can be connected to a screwable terminal block. This way the functionality of a sensor or an actuator can be easily checked, or the wiring can be adapted quickly.
