Stabilising plinth addresses health and safety

Rittal have addressed an important health and safety issue with the launch of a new accessory for server enclosures.

Rittal have addressed an important health and safety issue with the launch of a new accessory for server enclosures. The pull-out stabiliser plinth is quickly and easily retrofitted to the base of TS8 and flexRack server enclosures and only extended when servers or other heavy equipment is withdrawn for access. When not in use, the unit is fully retractable to avoid a tripping hazard.

It is absolutely crucial to use such stabilisers when withdrawing heavy equipment on slide rails to prevent the enclosure tipping forward and endangering the operators safety.

The stabilising plinth can support up to a maximum of 150kg.
