Elma Electronics introduces the Liquid Flow Through (LFT) VITA 48.4 modular test and development chassis, enabling rapid prototyping and testing for up to six 6U OpenVPX plug-in cards with power of 200 W or more.
The platform provides the thermal management to safely test modern high power embedded systems. Typical applications are found in aerospace and defense, such as sensor payloads, electronic warfare, C5ISR, navigation and target tracking.
The high-performance backplane ensures reliable power and signal distribution across all slots, while data rates up to 10 Gbps support high-throughput application processing. The open frame design with rear transition I/O makes quick configuration and debugging easy.
The chassis features an internal 1400 W power supply and a VITA 46.11 chassis manager for voltage and temperature monitoring. Integrated liquid cooling makes the system suitable for operational test environments where another external cooler or chiller is required.
