In addition to the expansion in subracks, more of the accessories have also been included. For example, it is possible to configure a complete system with mounting for horizontal boards in a minimal height subrack, the perfect solution where only two or three 6U boards are required to fit in a limited space.
The configurator also allows the inclusion of different mounting options for either rackmount or desktop, optional covers to direct airflow or for protection, with many other variations. It is available free of charge online at
www.rittal.co.uk/services_support/engineering/configurators/ and even includes a section on the Vario-Module Instrument case, which is a smart desk-top unit and utilises most of the accessories from the Ripac subrack range.
