Rack mounts for HP DC power supplies?
« on: September 19, 2017, 01:18:38 am »
Hey EEVbloggers!

I've acquired a number of HP 6632B DC power supplies and am using them to build a multi-channel battery cycling station.

My questions is- Does anyone have a part number or any recommendation for how to rack mount these power supplies?

Thanks!

Keysight website might have reference materials where part number is listed.

Another way to get part number is to download HP catalogs from that time period.

I think you can wedge them on a standard rack shelf. I very much suspect the original rack mounting kits are unobtainium now.

I see the hp 6632B was only recently discontinued.  The rackmount kit is Keysight #1CM002A - looks like it could be duplicated if the originals are too expensive.

Here's an idea: One of my neighbours was scrapping his fridge so I grabbed the shelves and standards as they're big enough to hold equipment about the size of the above hp supply.  My plan is to attach them to the wall in my shop so I can have rear mounted cantilevered shelves for stacking my test gear.

Cheers,
