The VXI-C size 165 Mini Crate is a compact 6-slot VXI chassis (C-size) designed for small test and measurement setups.
- Compact 6-slot VXI-C mini crate (5U) with integrated low-noise PSU and blower
- Output options: +5 V (45 A or 115 A spec), ±12 V (11.5 A or 23 A spec); total DC power up to ~1100 W.
- Tight regulation: static < 0.05 – 0.1 %, dynamic < 0.7 %, fast recovery times.
- Fully monitored and controllable: alphanumeric LED, status LEDs, Ethernet remote control.
- Efficient cooling with adjustable-speed DC blower and thermal protection features.
Product Information
It integrates a low-noise power supply and cooling system and can be used as a desktop or 19″ rack unit.
The VXI-C size 165 Mini Crate is a compact 6-slot chassis for C-size VXI modules, combining the proven 6000-series technology with a smaller form factor. It features full microprocessor control with LED status display, intelligent system monitoring, and Ethernet remote access for easy integration into automated setups.
An adjustable DC blower ensures reliable cooling, while multiple thermal sensors with programmable over-temperature protection provide safe and stable operation. The integrated low-noise VHF switching power supply delivers clean outputs with typical ripple below 10 mVpp, and the universal 94–265 V AC input with Power Factor Correction makes the crate suitable for worldwide use.
