Case Size Limitations

Rackmounts
Height: 1U to 9U
Depth: 2" to 46" (50.8mm to 1168mm)

U-Shape Enclosures
Height 1" to 22" (25.4mm to 558.8mm)
Width: 1" to 46" (25.4mm to 1168mm)
Depth: 1" to 46" (25.4mm to 1168mm)
Additionally, if the enclosure is more than 3"x3"x3" (76.2mm cube) the width and depth each must be at least 2" (50.8mm) greater than the height.

L-Shape Enclosures
Height 1" to 22" (25.4mm to 558.8mm)
Width: 1" to 46" (25.4mm to 1168mm)
Depth: 1" to 24" (25.4mm to 609.6mm)
Additionally, if the enclosure is more than 3"x3"x3" (76.2mm cube) the width and depth each must be at least 2" (50.8mm) greater than the height.

Flat Panels
max of 95"x47" (2413mm x 1193.8mm)

Consolet
Height 1" to 22" (25.4mm to 558.8mm)
Width: 1" to 46" (25.4mm to 1168mm)
Depth: 1" to 46" (25.4mm to 1168mm)
Additionally, if the enclosure is more than 3"x3"x3" (76.2mm cube) the width and depth each must be at least 2" (50.8mm) greater than the height.

Flat Panels
Width 1.5" to 23" (38.1mm to 584.2mm)
Depth 1" to 35" (25.4mm to 889.0mm)
Height 1.75" (1U)
Folded front version cannot have a thickness of more than 0.064" for front and rear.

Material Thickness Notes

  • Standoff and stud height is measured from the outside of the enclosure. This means that the height of a standoff / stud has nothing to do with the material thickness.
  • All measurements on the face editor are from the outside of the enclosure. This means that you do need to take material thickness into account when trying to align a connector or board against the inside of the case.
  • To get the material thickness, email sales@protocase.com with the type (aluminum, cold rolled steel, etc.), the size, and the style (u-shape, 20" wide, 10" high, 15" deep). We will get back to you with a material thickness.
