Title: Dual Rack Mount Kits - Keithley?
Post by: Wil_Bloodworth on February 28, 2024, 09:41:18 pm

I'm looking to mount a Keithley DMM6500 and a Keithley 2231A-30-3 DC power supply together in the same 3U rack space... exactly the way these two Siglent devices are arranged in this photo:

Two questions... 1) Does Keithley make a kit for these two to go side-by-side (assuming they fit correctly)? 2) Does anyone know if the Siglent kit above will work with the Keithley instruments?

Thank you!

3U (5.25 inch) or 2U (3.5 inch)?

3U if I'm not mistaken.

EDIT:  According to this page (https://www.tek.com/en/documents/product-selector-guide/keithley-rack-mount-kits-selector-guide (https://www.tek.com/en/documents/product-selector-guide/keithley-rack-mount-kits-selector-guide)), it might be 2U.  Model 4299-9   

$400 for just a bracket is... well, effing stupid!
