Understanding your Console
Let’s analyze the various components of our console to understand their purpose and how they integrate. This will help you use the console’s features more effectively, customize your control room operations, and improve operator efficiency.
What are the components of our control room consoles?
Backwall – Sturdy and customizable frames mounted atop the control room console worksurface, provide anchoring points for monitor arms and facilitate cable routing to maintain an uncluttered ergonomic workstation.
Cable Tray – An integral part of the console’s cable management system, providing a sturdy frame for installers to anchor and route necessary cables through the control center console.
Cantilevers/work surface support arms – The crucial link between custom console bay arrangements and the work surface, delivering vital support for Tresco’s robust, control room furniture.
Control box (CBD6S) – The core of your console’s height adjustment system, serving as both the brain and power supply for your sit-stand workstation.
Gables /End caps – Finishing elements at either side of the control console, designed to shield the frame and back wall, enhancing the durability and aesthetic appeal of the workstation.
Kick Plates – Protective metal plates safeguarding the control room console from constant contact with the operator’s feet. Ensuring longevity in 24/7 mission-critical environments.
Lift columns – Electro-Mechanical Lifting Columns that allow the workstation to be raised to the desired height promoting operator comfort during long shifts.
Monitor arms – Fully adjustable and customizable monitor mounts catering to your operational needs and screen size requirements for optimized situational awareness.
Sit-stand control controls – Controls designed to allow the user to adjust the height of the lifting columns, set memory and display height, and error codes in ergonomic workstations.
Sliding equipment trays – 12-gauge steel plates with robust sliding mechanisms, facilitating easy access to electrical or mechanical equipment mounted inside the control room console.
Sub Panel – When the console is in the standing position These panels enclose the console to provide a clean finish so you do not see cables and additional equipment.
Ventilation fans – Console ventilation fans are designed to push out hot air from the frame to maintain the optimal operating temperature. They are engineered to maximize airflow, reduce noise, and increase the lifespan of the internal components of the command center console.
Vertical Cable Management – Flexible and adjustable cable management system, ensuring maximum mobility during workstation height adjustments.
Worksurface – The primary operator contact surface, often single but adaptable to dual configurations for specific operational needs.
Wedge Sections – Connecting sections that allow Tresco to make unique console shapes delivering flexible solutions for custom control room environments.
