EFB Elektronik 691653TS.80 Adjustable Steel Rack Shelf

The EFB Elektronik 691653TS.80 is a robust, heavy-duty adjustable shelf engineered specifically for integration into 19-inch server racks and network cabinets. Manufactured from high-quality sheet steel, this shelf provides a reliable and stable platform for housing non-rack-mountable equipment, such as tower servers, networking hardware, and various peripheral devices within professional data center or office environments.

Advantages

This shelf offers exceptional versatility due to its adjustable depth mechanism, which allows it to be configured between 500 mm and 900 mm to accommodate various cabinet sizes and equipment dimensions. Its heavy-duty construction supports a significant load capacity of up to 150 kg, ensuring that even dense or bulky hardware is securely supported. The design facilitates secure mounting at both the front and rear 19-inch profiles, providing superior stability compared to cantilever-style shelves.

Suitable for

• Supporting tower servers in server racks
• Housing networking switches and routers
• Storing UPS units and power distribution equipment
• Organizing non-rack-mountable IT hardware

When it may not be suitable

This shelf is not suitable for cabinets that do not feature both front and rear 19-inch mounting profiles, as it requires support at both ends for proper installation. It is also not intended for use in open-frame racks that lack the necessary depth or structural support for heavy-duty equipment.

Key specifications

• Compatibility: 19-inch server and network cabinets
• Material: Durable sheet steel
• Adjustable depth: 500 mm to 900 mm
• Maximum load capacity: 150 kg
• Mounting: Front and rear 19-inch profile attachment
• Finish: Powder-coated

How to use

To install the shelf, first determine the required depth by measuring the distance between the front and rear 19-inch mounting profiles of your rack. Adjust the shelf length by loosening the fasteners and sliding the sections to the desired position, then secure them using the provided self-tapping screws. Once the shelf is set to the correct depth, align it with the mounting holes on the rack profiles and fasten it securely using appropriate rack-mount hardware. Ensure the shelf is level before placing any equipment on it.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the depth of your server cabinet to ensure it falls within the 500 mm to 900 mm range
• Confirm that your rack has both front and rear mounting profiles
• Check the total weight of your equipment to ensure it does not exceed the 150 kg limit
• Ensure you have sufficient rack unit space available for installation

Usage recommendations

Always distribute the weight of the equipment evenly across the surface of the shelf to maintain structural integrity and prevent deformation. Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain tight, especially in environments subject to vibrations.
