Avalon Design VP-1 black B-Ware

Why do I need a rack panel with ventilation slots?

When compressors, EQs, preamps or converters are giving their all, it can get quite hot in 19" racks. Especially with larger rack installations, the order of the day is to ensure sufficient air circulation so that the devices do not overheat. The Avalon VP-1 rack panel helps here, as it is equipped with ventilation slots. Even if it sometimes hurts to give up valuable rack space, adequate cooling should always be considered when designing a rack. Energy-intensive analog devices in particular can quickly become real heaters. Attention should also be paid to where the rack devices have their internal ventilation slots. If these are installed at the top of the device, at least 1 height unit should always be left free above the device. If you want to make this space a little more stylish, the Avalon VP-1 is the perfect choice. The rack panel milled from aluminum allows the air to circulate and also looks stylish. If you don't like the black look, the VP-1 is also available in silver.
