HIMA F60 GEH 01 HIMatrix Modular System Subrack

Product Overview

The HIMA F60 GEH 01 functions as the structural and electrical backbone for the HIMatrix F60 modular safety system. It houses the central processor, the power supply module, and up to 6 freely selectable I/O modules. 

Technical Specifications

• Module Type: Modular system housing and subrack

• Slot Capacity: 1 Power Supply slot, 1 CPU slot, and 6 I/O module slots

• Material: Anodized aluminum with earth grid

• Dimensions: 259 x 310 x 228 mm (Width x Height x Depth)

• Backplane Connectors: DIN EN 60603-2 compliant, Type C, 96-pole

• Thermal Management: 2 integrated cooling fans on the backplane PCB

• Operating Temperature: 0°C to +60°C

Engineering Advantages

• Enforce Structural Rigidity: The anodized aluminum frame resists mechanical deformation and industrial vibrations. It locks sensitive electronic modules securely in place inside marshalling cabinets.

• Eliminate Thermal Hotspots: Two integrated fans draw heat away from active I/O modules and central CPUs. The airflow design prevents localized overheating and extends the operational lifespan of the electronics.

• Streamline Module Insertion: Heavy-duty guide rails ensure perfect physical alignment between safety modules and backplane pins. Engineers slide modules into place without risking bent connector pins.

• Simplify System Earthing: The integrated earth grid establishes a unified electrical reference point across the entire rack. It drains transient noise safely to the ground to protect safety-critical signal processing.

FAQs

• Question: Does the subrack include the backplane PCB and cooling fans?

• Answer: Yes. The F60 GEH 01 ships as a complete assembly including the aluminum housing, guide rails, backplane PCB, and two pre-installed cooling fans.

• Question: Can I mount this subrack onto standard 35mm DIN rails?

• Answer: You must mount the F60 GEH 01 onto a flat base using its perpendicular mounting links and slotted holes. The screws and base must support the weight of a fully loaded rack (up to 10 kg).

• Question: Are the I/O slots on the subrack dedicated to specific module types?

• Answer: Slot 1 and Slot 2 are reserved strictly for the Power Supply module (F60 PS 01) and Central Module (F60 CPU 01). Slots 3 through 8 accept any combination of HIMatrix F60 digital or analog I/O modules.
