Mobile Clusters

For mobile enclosures we work exclusively with the world leaders in this technology, Hardigg --also located in Massachusetts. We have most commonly delivered turnkey mobile HPC compute and storage platforms in 7U and 14U mobile form-factors to the broadcast and defense markets. Hardigg's enclosures meet a wide range of strict military eivironmental specifications.

As CPU-core and node densities shrink, it is more possible then ever to pack significant amounts of computational horsepower into a 14U mobile rack. This allows sites to safely move assets between locations or cities, or take technology on the road to Cient sites or trade shows.

	Classic Rack The best shock and vibration protection available. Protection for equipment from 20-340 lbs. Equipment typically will have 15-30 G fragility. Ideal for rack mountable precision test, electro-mechanical, medical and biological diagnostic equipment, memory storage devices, meteorological instruments, mobile operations, broadcast and video gear, laboratory equipment, aerospace instrumentation, servers, military mission planning, command and control equipment and flight simulators.
	RADE Rack Ideal for applications requiring lids to be opened and closed in the stacked position. Protection for equipment from 20-340 lbs. Equipment typically will have 25-50 G fragility. Typical applications include printers, control consoles and panels, and uninterrupted power supplies (UPS).
	MAC Rack Ideal for semi-ruggedized equipment that requires good shock and vibration protection in a light, compact case. Protection for equipment from 20-200 lbs. Equipment typically will have 50-80 G fragility. Ideal for field-deployed and sheltered applications. Typical uses include solid-state circuit electronics, radar and microwave antennas, control consoles and panels, or radio, TV and communications equipment.
	ProRack Lightweight, space-efficient, front and rear opening transport container (not a shock mounted/cushioned rackmount system) for field ruggedized equipment. Designed for equipment up to 75 lbs. Equipment typically will have 80-120 G fragility. Rugged 18" deep cases with aircraft aluminum frame suspended on plastic fins to protect your gear from direct impact transmission. Often used for field-deployed amplifiers and electronic, medical or testing equipment components.

Features

• Molded-in, tongue-in-groove gasketed parting lines for splash resistance and tight seals, even after impact
• Reinforced corners and edges for additional impact protection
• Aircraft-quality, tempered aluminum for less weight and more strength
• Recessed hardware for extra protection
• Positive anti-shear locks, which prevent lid separation after impact, and reduce stress on hardware
• Molded-in ribs and corrugations for secure, non-slip stacking, columnar strength, and added protection
• Permanent, uniform, molded-in color that won't scrape off
• Patented molded-in metal inserts for catch and hinge attachment points, which provide strength and spread loads to the container walls
• Interference-fit spiral spring pins in each corner, for maximum structural integrity
• One-piece body and lids, molded from lightweight, high-impact polyethylene
• Meet ANSI/EIA-310-C standard for universal rack mounting hole pattern, and exceed ATA Specification 300, Category 1 requirements. 

MIL-SPEC

Many of our cases have been certified under various MIL-SPEC testing procedures, including fungus resistance, free fall drop, salt, fog, cargo bounce, submersion, temperature and humidity, vibration limits, and low pressure (altitude). The specifications below are among the most popular used for manufacturing and evaluating reusable containers.

Fragility Rating

An item's fragility is normally expressed in G's—which is the measure of force exerted on an object by the force of gravity. Objects that can withstand greater G forces need less protection from shock and vibration.

For example, a piece of equipment with a fragility of 20 G's will suffer damage when subjected to a force greater than 20 times that of Earth's gravity. The fragility of an instrument or piece of equipment is usually determined by laboratory testing.
