Product Description:
The ECR165-0 belongs to the ECP Multi Control Modules series manufactured by B & R Automation. It is a panel-mounted carrier that accepts multiple controller cards, allowing a single enclosure to concentrate I/O and CPU functions for coordinated machine control. By providing fixed mechanical references for every slot and standardized grounding points, the unit simplifies the installation of PLC hardware in industrial automation cabinets.
The front footprint of the module bracket measures 482.6 mm in width and 221.4 mm in height, while the cabinet depth requirement is only 145 mm. These dimensions indicate the space that must be reserved on the mounting plate. Sixteen backplane connectors provide 16 PLC module slots, organized over the hexadecimal slot range 0 to F so that addressing remains sequential. Structural stiffness is provided by a sheet metal frame with a wall thickness of 2 mm, limiting flex when cards are inserted or removed. Horizontal hole spacing of 464.6 mm and vertical spacing of 146.1 mm line up with standard control-panel grid patterns, while left and right offsets of 9 mm and top and bottom offsets of 37.65 mm keep the threaded inserts clear of neighboring items.
The permissible ambient range is 0 to 60 °C, so the rack can be placed in unconditioned electrical rooms without forced cooling. Corrosion resistance is provided by a body made of Electrogalvanized Sheet Metal, and the external faces receive a RAL 9005 Fine Structure powder coat that minimizes glare and blends with typical cabinet colors. During door fabrication, a window cutout of 446 mm in width allows the card LEDs and terminal blocks to remain accessible after final assembly. Side screws with contact washers, grounding clamps, and an unpainted bonding strip provide direct earth paths so shield currents bypass sensitive logic lines.
