IFS Rack Mount Card Cage
QUALITY DESIGN
The design approach employed by IFS for equipment mounted
within the model R3 Chassis Rack Unit with Integral 115/230
VAC Power Supply, provides for the elimination of a single-point
failure in the event of a major fault within any module located
within the chassis rack. This is accomplished through the use of
automatic electronic current limiting within each rack-mountable
module,rather than to provide the current limiting within the power
supply unit which supports the power requirements for equipment
located within the rack. In nearly all competing designs, a major
fault within a module, located within the chassis rack, results in
the power supply unit going into a current limiting condition, and
as a result, all of the modules located within the rack shut down.
The R3 Rack design employed by IFS eliminates this possibility,
as only the faulty module shuts down, and the operation of the
other devices within the rack continues unimpaired. This automatic
current limiting feature is also self-resetting, should the fault or
overload be of a temporary or intermittent condition. Furthermore,
all modules located within the chassis rack are hot-swappable, so
that it is not necessary to power-down the rack when removing or
replacing modules. Rather than utilizing a switching-mode or linear
DC power supply for providing the operating power to the rack as
employed by most competing designs, the IFS Model R3 Chassis
Rack uses a simple under stressed step-down power transformer,
and all rectification, filtering, and regulation is performed within each
rack mounted module. The use of a step-down power transformer
for the power supply unit results in a significantly higher MTBF than
any switching-mode or linear DC power supply can provide, as there
are no semiconductors, electrolytic capacitors, etc., to degrade the
reliability of the supply. In addition, the high-reliability transformer
power supply and current limiting built into each module, eliminates
the necessity of providing redundant power supplies within the
chassis rack, as the overall system reliability is still much higher (and
less costly) than can be provided with a redundant power supply
design approach.
