IPC2U Group: New 3U 8-Slot PXI Chassis with Smart Chassis Management

Chassis PXIS-2558T and PXIS-2508 feature one system and seven peripheral slots, smart chassis status monitoring and control, an operating temperature of 0-131°F, a quiet 41.6 dBA operating noise level, and a lightweight 13 lbs rigid construction for both bench-top and portable test & measurement applications.

The embedded chassis management board automatically regulates the speed of two 60 CFM fans based on the internal temperature of the chassis for an extended operating temperature range of 0-131°F while maintaining a low operating noise level of 41.6 dBA at room temperature. Fan speed, chassis temperature and system voltage are continually self-monitored to ensure system stability. These chassis also support remote management from a remote system via a standard RS-232 port connection. The PXIS-2558T provides the same features as the PXIS-2508, but with the addition of an integrated 8.4", 800x600 resolution LCD touch panel display for greater convenience in carrying out PXI-based tests at any location.

Both these chassis feature a lightweight rigid mechanical construction composed of an aluminum inner frame and metal outer shell. This feature makes PXIS-2508 and PXIS-2558T ideal for the testing applications requiring high portability.
