PVC power strip for 10” 1U rack cabinet with 3 white Schuko sockets and switch

PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) is extracted from the polymerization of the vinyl chloride monomer. We can classify PVC into two large groups: rigid PVC and flexible PVC.

Rigid: used for the construction of pipes, pipes, containers, tool accessories, parts, blinds, windows, etc.
Flexible: Corrugated tube, traffic signals like cones. irrigation hoses, curtains for refrigerators, footwear, medicina, etc.

This material begins to soften at 80 ° C and to get rid at 140 ° C. Thanks to these and other properties, PVC is a recyclable material.

Among the main features of PVC we find:

• Different degree of hardness.
• Waterproof.
• It does not corrode.
• It is modelable if subjected to high temperatures.
• Good electrical insulation.
It is a very materialessential
• Stable and inert.
• Good mechanical resistance and impact.
• High resistance to abrasion.
• Resistant and lightweight
• Good thermal insulation
• It is odorless, tasteless and innocuous.

A rack is a metal support designed to house electronic, computer and communications equipment. The measures for the width are normalized to be compatible with most equipment manufacturers. They are also called racks, cabinets, cabinets or closets. Each column has holes at regular intervals called U rack units (Pictured: 4) grouped in threes. The height (Pictured:5) of the racks is standardized and external dimensions of 200 mm by 200 mm. Being normal that from 4U to 46/47U height width types (Pictured: 7). Standard 600 mm or 800 mm Types of background (Pictured: 6) The depth of the frame is not standardized, as this flexibility is granted (Pictured: 8) to the equipment. The most common are: - 450 mm - 600 mm - 800 mm - 900 mm - 1000 mm - 1200 mm Type 19-inch rack can find various types of 19-inch rack. Rack Mural (Pictured: 2): Used to accommodate electronic network. They are the smallest and are anchored to wall. Rack Pie (Pictured: 1): They are used primarily for servers, UPS and network electronics. Open Rack (Pictured: 3): Open Rack Racks are available only modelsstructure, eliminating doors and other accessories.

One hertz is one cycle per second, meaning repeating cycle as an event. For example, hertz is applied physics measuring the number of times for a second wave (either acoustic or electromagnetic) is repeated or can be applied, among other uses, to ocean waves that reach the Beach vibrations per second or a solid. The quantity that measures the frequency hertz is called,in this regard, the inverse of the period. One hertz is an oscillation frequency of suffering a particle over a period of one second.

In IEC connector or cable with a base (usually plastic) and a plug to connect to the socket (plug), if we put these two things we would get the named SCHUKO is the overall connector. The schuko not determine the type of connector. It would be determined by the specification of the International Electrotechnical Commision (IEC). We leave a small sample of Schukos internationally.

There are several cabinet heights according to the needs of the installation, this height can be measured in rack units (U).

Each rack unit or U is the distance between each horizontal separation to place the different accessories inside the rack. This distance is 1.75 inches that is equal to 4.4445 cm high.

For example, if we say that a rack is 8U we will understand that it has 8 units to install device orAccessories of 4.44 cm in height.

Normally these accessories, like trays, guides, strips, etc. Occupy a unit of U (1U), but we can find that other devices or accessories occupy more units, for example can be a rack box to install a PC, a UPS, etc. It can be said that there is also a half unit of U (0.5U), in this case, two units could be installed in a rack unit.

As far as I knowEndo the units of rack that occupy the devices that we are going to install we will know the height that we need for our rack.

The size of the rack unit (U) is based on the standard specification for racks defined in EIA-310.
