PCB covers available in solid and perforated options

Pixus Technologies has unveiled protective solder-side covers for 3U and 6U Eurocard-based PCBs. And these covers come in specialized versions that mount onto OpenVPX, CompactPCI, and VME/64x boards.

The new PCB covers from Pixus offer mechanical protection of the component side of the modules during storage and transportation. Moreover, the attachment holes are carved according to the respective OpenVPX, CompactPCI, and VME/64x specifications.

The protective covers come in solid or perforated versions with standard sizes of 3U x 160 mm and 6U x 160 mm. Then there are sizes for 80-mm rear transition modules (RTMs) and 220-mm boards available upon request.

The 0.3-mm anti-static PCB covers can withstand up to 65°C temperature. And specialty 0.5-mm versions are rated up to 120°C temperature. Pixus also offers other board-level components such as ejector handles, front-panel faceplates, micro-switches, and PCB holders.
