FS-1270, Rugged Chassis
10/12/18 Slot 6U VME /cPCI
The AP Labs FS-1270 is an 8U tall ruggedized VME/cPCI enclosure designed for 6U VME/cPCI boards with an optional peripheral carrier available in 10, 12 and 18-slot versions
The enclosure is provided with easy front loading access. The peripheral carrier is removable, and mounts in the card cage. It can accommodate up to four 5.75” removable drive carriers. A standard single 800 Watt power supply will be provided.
AP Labs designed the FS-1270 to meet MIL-S-901 in an isolated rack, MIL-STD-810 and MIL-STD-167-1 shock and vibration specifications for severe environments. Optionally, the FS-1270 can be upgraded to meet MIL-STD-108 for drip proof requirements.
The card cage is cooled by internal fans that draw air through an inlet located on the front door of the chassis, which is routed up through the VME/cPCI card cage, around the power supplies and is exhausted through the upper rear of the enclosure.
