Systems Packaging and Rugged EnclosuresFS-5985 cPCI Conduction Cooled Chassis

The AP Labs FS-5985 is a forced-air, conduction cooled chassis designed for use in avionics environments.  Specifically, the FS-5985 chassis meets the environmental requirements of MIL-E-5400 for Class 1 equipment and will withstand extremes of temperature, vibration, shock, salt spray, sand and chemical exposure while maintaining a sealed environment.

Mounting & Cooling
The FS-5985 chassis is designed to adapt to existing ARINC style equipment mounting trays or it can be configured with a number of application driven mounting options, including hard mounted or shock mounted.

The FS-5985 chassis provides a secure enclosure for conduction cooled circuit cards.  The heat from the chassis internal system components is conducted to side-wall heat exchangers, where it is dissipated to the ambient environment by forced-air cooling.  The FS-5985 chassis is available with an integral AC or DC fan or with an air-plenum to use with an external force air supply.

Slot Configuration
CompactPCI boards and the PSU are loaded from the rear of the chassis.  The FS-5985 supports one system slot, and 4 spare cPCI for I/O and peripherals.  A dedicated power supply slot supports a blind mating power supply unit—(included in standard unit).


Application - Airborne
Airborne, mission computer or similar application requiring a small form factor, 3U VME, VPX or cPCI solution.
