Case
SICOM6000 case is a wall mounting modular structure. The entire unit adopts six‐side‐enclosed
design with protection class up to IP40. The case’s left and right panels are made of single‐ribbed
aluminum, which are a part of the heat dissipation system. The single ribbed structure doubles the
heat dissipation area and the heat generated during the unit’s working is efficiently dissipated
into the air via single‐ribbed surface with the form of radiation and convection, which greatly
enhance the high temperature resistance performance of equipment. Discard the traditional form
of axial fan for heat dissipation, not only reducing power consumption of the entire unit, but also
increasing the stability of the system. The layout of SICOM6000 case is shown in Figure 3‐2.
Its dimension is 165.5mm × 320mm× 236mm (height ×width× depth).
