Inside Story

ACP382 portable chassis is designed to be powered from AC, DC or batteries with glitch less switching. The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) feature allows the system to run smoothly even if the power is off, making it a great choice for critical applications or remote sensing applications. The battery module used in ACP382 offers close to 100 Watt-hours of energy and can tolerate two times the rated discharge current without adverse effects. Ability to incorporate high power PXI cards broadens the applications ACP382 can address.

ACP382 has a 44TE/HP controller slot on the left, and power supply modules and battery modules on the right. Quick plug/unplug of cards and modules and the support for hot swapping reduces mean time to repair to within minutes. ACP382 also incorporates a foldout keyboard, and a large 15" touch screen LCD display.

ACP382 is a powerful and versatile portable chassis that allows the system used in development be simply unplugged and deployed to the field directly, with no change in functionality or capability.
