Seismic Cabinet Enclosure from Optima Fits Tight Spaces


FREMONT, California, Dec 03, 2007 - Optima EPS, an Elma Company, offers Seismic cabinet enclosures with "French door" style access. The design allows the cabinet to fit in tight spaces.

In many cabinet enclosure applications, the racks are placed side-by-side closely together or are located in areas where an opened door would hit other equipment. The M-series cabinet from Optima solves this problem with doors that open outward with hinges justified inward. This allows the cabinet door to open fully in a French door style without the hinges or door interfering with other equipment nearby.

The M-series cabinets also features cross bracing, back stiffeners, and double-walled extrusions, providing a high strength-to-weight ratio to support and protect equipment during the full force of a seismic event. The design incorporates welded sockets and members, double cavity extrusions, thicker gauge rails, and a welded base for extra durability.

A variety of rail types and hole patterns are available to meet a wide range of requirements. Optional features of the M-series cabinets include dust and moisture protection, cooling systems, cable management systems, hard-mounting, electrical plug strips, and more. The stylish appearance of the cabinets is protected with paint adhesion and corrosion resistance via phosphate pre-treating and durable acrylic coating.

Elma's other electronic cabinet lines include a product mix of EMC, NEMA, Mil/Aero, Co-location, and Server cabinets. Elma's cabinet's feature a broad product range, rugged extruded aluminum construction, and an aesthetic contemporary design.

Lead-time is 2-4 weeks ARO.
