■Overview UR2 rack

The UR2 rack is the basic mechanical frame of the AS 488/TM automation system. It accommodates the system modules (CPU, load power supply, EXM 478, TPM 478 and TBX 478), provides the operating voltages for the modules, and connects the individual modules via the backplane bus.

The rack comprises:

•Aluminium rail with threaded bolts for securing the modules, and lateral recesses for mounting the rack

•Plastic components as guides when swinging in the modules

•Connection for PE conductor

•Backplane bus with plug connections

Migration rack

The migration rack for CS-L2 bridge can be used to install the bridge in an existing TELEPERM M cabinet.
