Teko has introduced the Dissipator enclosures series. These versatile metal enclosures can be used for housing desktop and rack mounted electronics. Typical applications will include test and measurement devices, professional audio systems, and laboratory and communications equipment. The Dissipator cases consist of two aluminium side panel extrusions, aluminium front and rear panels, and top and base covers in black nylon coated steel. The side panels, and rear panel, are black anodised, and the front panel is silver anodised. The cases are assembled by self-tapping screws. A range of eight standard models is available with external dimension from 176x126x43mm to 287x483x43mm. Three models have standard 1U front panels for fitting the cases directly in a 19in rack. The side extrusions include guide rails for mounting PCBs or chassis plates. The top and base panels also include ventilation slots for high power electronics.
