SOSA-compliant printed circuit boards removal device for rugged environments introduced by nVent SCHROFF
WARWICK, R.I. – nVent SCHROFF in Warwick, R.I., is introducing the Positive Retraction Card-Lok for the demanding needs of rugged environments where reliable removal of printed circuit boards is critical.
The circuit board retraction device features an advanced mechanism that eliminates stiction, and enables the device to disengage from the chassis wall. Once disengaged, the Card-Lok retracts to facilitate quick and efficient circuit board removal.
This serves as a drop-in replacement for the nVent SCHROFF 260, 265, and 280 Calmark & Birtcher lines, with enhanced performance in clamp force and thermal management compared to standard Card-Lok series counterparts.
Manufactured in an AS9100-certified facility in San Diego, the circuit board removal device meets VITA (46, 48.2, 48.4, 48.5, and 48.8) and SOSA standards. It is also compliant with DFARS, JOSCAR, and ITAR requirements and exceeds advanced shock and vibration resistance specifications.
The Positive Retraction Card-Lok recently earned the prestigious Best in Show Award from Embedded Computing Design at the Electronica 2024 Exhibition and Conference, further cementing its reputation as a cutting-edge solution for rugged environments.
