Product Information

Full details

This durable aluminum carrying case by PeakTech is designed for professionals who need to transport measurement instruments and sensitive electronic devices. Its key benefit is robust protection against impacts, dust, and rain, ensuring your equipment arrives safely. A minor caveat is that the foam customization, while tool-free, requires careful planning for optimal fit. The case features a strong aluminum shell, 1 cm foam padding, and customizable 3 cm cube foam layers, along with a dust and rain-protected closing edge and a lockable design.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What are the exact internal dimensions of the case?

The internal dimensions of the PeakTech 7300 carrying case are approximately 300 x 235 x 130 mm.

Can the foam be removed completely?

Yes, the foam consists of a base layer and two layers of removable cube foam. The cube layers can be fully removed and reconfigured.

Is this case suitable for extreme weather conditions?

The case is dust and rain protected due to its sealing edge, making it suitable for outdoor use in moderate conditions. However, it is not designed for prolonged submersion in water.

How secure are the locks?

The case features lockable latches, providing security against unauthorized access during transport. The specific security level depends on the quality of the padlock used (padlocks typically not included).

What types of instruments can fit inside?

It is designed for measurement instruments and sensitive electronic devices such as frequency generators, table multimeters, oscilloscopes, and their associated accessories.

Does the case come with any included accessories?

The case includes the customizable foam inserts. Any instruments or accessories mentioned are for illustrative purposes and are not included with the case.

What is the weight of the empty case?

While not explicitly stated, aluminum cases of this size are generally heavier than fabric or plastic alternatives. Expect it to add a noticeable amount of weight before adding equipment.

Troubleshooting

Case does not close properly

Ensure no items are obstructing the lid or the closing edge. Check if the internal foam is positioned correctly and not causing pressure points.

Locks are stiff or difficult to operate

Check for debris in the lock mechanism. Apply a small amount of a suitable lubricant to the lock cylinders and tumblers.

Foam cubes are difficult to remove or insert

Ensure you are pulling the cubes straight out. If they are tightly packed, gently wiggle them. For insertion, align the cubes carefully within the case's internal structure.

Water ingress detected after exposure to rain

Wipe the case dry immediately. Ensure the double notch in the closing edge is clean and free from debris. While dust and rain protected, the case is not waterproof for submersion. Allow the interior to air dry completely before storing equipment.

  2. Place Instruments: Carefully place your measurement instruments and accessories into the customized foam cutouts.
  3. Secure the Case: Close the lid and engage the lockable latches to secure the contents.
