Avnet Abacus has strengthened its European linecard by signing a distribution agreement with Pentair to sell its range of electronics cabinets, racks and sub racks, and shock- and vibration-resistant ruggedised solutions.
“One of the key reasons for selecting Avnet Abacus as a European distribution partner is their track record in building successful, longstanding customer relationships throughout the region,” said Heiko Wisotzki, Channel Manager Europe at Pentair. “They have a highly professional team of technically competent staff who will now offer Schroff products as part of the system solutions that are offered to customers across many end markets, and whom we can trust to provide an all-encompassing service.”
The Schroff brand from Pentair has been a leader in the protection of electronics systems for more than 50 years, and was instrumental in the standardisation of the 19in sub rack system. Development has continued to deliver electronic infrastructure for sub-19in applications, and the manufacture of a broad array of electronic cabinets; systems, backplanes and power supplies; sub racks, cases and front panels; and PCB accessories and retainers.
Through this agreement, Avnet Abacus is now offering thousands of products from Schroff’s standard line, and can provide technical support to customers wishing to tailor their enclosures using the Schroff Service Plus programme.
The Schroff products are suitable for use in many industries, from communications to medical, and vary from modular solutions for data centers; rugged protection for tough mobile conditions, such as in defence applications; or protection for mobile transportation.
“The addition of the Schroff range significantly enhances our product portfolio and extends our capability to offer comprehensive innovative design solutions,” said Alan Jermyn, Vice President of Marketing, Avnet Abacus. “They also place a strong emphasis on customer design support through various service programmes, which fits well with our ethos at Avnet Abacus.”
