VXI-C size 6025
The VXI-C size 6025 Crate is a compact, front-access 13-slot VXI chassis available in two height versions—8.5 U for medium power (up to 2 kW) and 10 U for high power (up to 4 kW).
- Mechanics: 13U × 23″ × 28″, IEEE 1155 VXI C-size compliant, EMC/ESD-protected
- Slots: 13 VXI C-size user slots (plus system slots)
- Power Supply: Up to 6 kW DC output, flexible PSU module configuration
- Interfaces: Ethernet, RS232, CAN-bus for remote monitoring & control
- Cooling: High-performance fan tray with 6 adjustable DC fans, filtered airflow (bottom-to-top)
Product Information
It features a rugged steel-aluminum design with modular, front-loading fan tray and power supply for easy servicing.
The VXI-C size 6025 Crate is based on a proven 6000-series architecture and features a monolithic 13-slot C-size backplane with full front-side accessibility. Both the power supply and the cooling fan tray can be removed from the front for easy maintenance. The system is available in two configurations: a compact 8.5 U version delivering up to 2 kW, or a high-power 10 U version providing up to 4 kW. It includes microprocessor-controlled diagnostics with LED indicators and Ethernet connectivity for remote monitoring. Designed for demanding test environments, it offers high power density combined with excellent serviceability.
