Industrial rack PCs: characteristics of rack and wall-mount PC cases

A PC rack case or chassis refers to the computer hardware components and the metal structure in which the hardware parts are embedded. Specifically, the cases of industrial PCs are a key part of the enterprise computer system: they must ensure high reliability and durability because the environments of use are often hostile (dust, shock, etc.).

Generally, a 19’’ PC rack corresponds to the most common standard, used to calculate the available space in a rack unit inside an industrial PC, such as 1U, 2U, and 4U.

As main features, a chassis should have:

• - High reliability, guaranteed by high dust and shock resistance;
• - Extensive modularity within the system, which increases the degree of customization;
• - Easy installation and rapid maintenance;
• - High lifetime for 24/7 operation.
