The Compact Crate family includes space-efficient NIM infrastructures designed for portable setups, small laboratory benches, and cost-sensitive experimental installations. These crates provide reliable power distribution and mechanical support for standard NIM modules while maintaining a reduced footprint and simplified architecture.

Available in portable and 19″ rack-mount formats, the Compact Crate solutions integrate pluggable linear power supplies and essential protection features to ensure stable operation in environments where full-size NIM crates are not required. Their non-ventilated design and compact dimensions make them ideal for test benches, field measurements, educational laboratories, and low-channel-count instrumentation systems.

  • Compact non-ventilated NIM crates with pluggable 150 W linear power supply

  • Portable and 19″ rack-mount versions with up to 10 free NIM slots

  • Integrated protection: short circuit, over/undervoltage and over-temperature

  • Cost-effective infrastructure for small-scale or mobile nuclear instrumentation setups
