Overview: In publication since 1974, the ATR ARINC 404A specification spells out a tried and true airborne chassis design. So when the engineers at Carlo Gavazzi Mupac set out to craft a system to meet this specification they didn't want to re-invent the wheel. Their challenge was to implement an ATR ARINC 404A system with improved resistance to environmental conditions, while still adhering to the strict guidelines of the spec. With that in mind, the engineers embarked on a conduction-cooled 3/4 ATR (Air Transport Rack) short chassis design that could dissipate enough power at the harsh ambient temperatures of up to 70°C.
