Pentair highlights Schroff
Interscale C conduction-cooled
case at embedded world
Pentair will be presenting innovative new
products and solutions in the field of embed-
ded systems at embedded world 2016. The
highlight of Pentair’s presentation will be
the Schroff Interscale C, a new, compact,
and conduction-cooled case. The Flexi-
ble Heat Conductors, when assembled into
a Schroff Interscale C chassis, make these
cases intelligent solutions for small form fac-
tor applications. The Schroff AdvancedTCA
ECO modular system will take center stage
in the field of xTCA products. This 14 U
AdvancedTCA system offers 14 slots and is
based on a modular concept with a cost-op-
timized scope of features. All features can
be upgraded or minimized as required. Also,
the cooling and power supply configurations
can be easily adapted to accommodate spe-
cific customer applications. Pentair will also
unveil various embedded solutions for the
“ruggedized” product sector. These include
a customized CPCI PlusIO system, which
is installed in a drone for research purposes.
With Pentair’s recent acquisition of Pigeon
Point Systems, visitors can now for the first
time also see monitoring and control prod-
ucts on display at the Pentair booth – trusted
solutions for hardware platform management
that are safe to operate. In addition, interested
visitors can also benefit from an introduction
to the TraceParts CAD portal. This portal pro-
vides over 4,000 3D data sets of Schroff prod-
ucts in 32 different native CAD data formats
ready for download – all free of charge.
