PROEL ADRK2PE - Removable Rack Shelf Tray for 19" Rack (1 Unit)
Optimize the functionality of your professional setup with the PROEL ADRK2PE , a high-quality pull-out tray designed to integrate seamlessly into any standard 19-inch rack. In the world of professional audio, networking, and server installations, space and accessibility are critical; this accessory solves both problems with its robust construction and intelligent design.
Manufactured by Proel, a leading brand in stage structures and accessories, this tray occupies only 1U of height but offers a versatile work surface that slides out thanks to its precision telescopic guides. It's the ultimate solution for housing equipment that lacks side rack mounting points, such as laptops, effects pedals, desktop audio interfaces, small synthesizers, or maintenance tools. Its reinforced steel sheet construction ensures your devices remain secure and stable, while the matte black finish provides a discreet and professional aesthetic that complements the rest of your equipment.
Unlike fixed trays, the ADRK2PE's removable tray system allows access to the back of the equipment or manipulation of overhead controls without disassembly. Simply slide the tray out, make the necessary adjustments, and stow it away. It's an essential component for sound engineers, system administrators, and musicians seeking ergonomics and a streamlined workflow.

Benefits of integrating the ADRK2PE tray
The main advantage of this accessory is its ergonomic accessibility . By allowing equipment to be pulled outwards, it eliminates the discomfort of working in dark, confined spaces inside the rack. This is especially beneficial for equipment that requires constant handling, such as small or portable mixers.
Furthermore, it improves organization and safety . It prevents loose or improperly stacked equipment on amplifiers or other units, reducing the risk of falls and overheating, as it allows air to circulate properly around the devices placed on the tray.
Recommended use cases
-
Recording studios: Ideal for placing desktop audio interfaces, drum machines, or MIDI controllers that need to be readily available but stored away when not in use.
-
Guitar and bass racks: Perfect for mounting analog effects pedals, allowing the musician or technician to easily adjust the potentiometers between songs.
-
Computer systems and servers: Excellent support for compact keyboards, control laptops, or external disk drives.
-
Audiovisual (AV) installations: Useful for home media players, video game consoles, or receivers that are not rack-mountable.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does the tray lock when it's closed?
This model has a basic retention system on the guides to prevent it from opening on its own with slight movements, but it does not have a key lock, as it is designed for immediate operation.
-
How much weight can it support?
Being a 1U tray with sliding rails, it is designed for "light to medium-sized equipment" (such as laptops, pedals, or effects units). It is not recommended for heavy power amplifiers or large UPS systems.
-
Is it compatible with racks from other brands?
Yes, it meets the 19-inch standard, so it will fit in any rack, server cabinet, or flight case that respects this universal measurement.
-
What depth do I need in my rack?
You must ensure that your rack has sufficient depth to accommodate the guide structure and the tray body (approx. 32-35 cm of free depth) plus the rear cabling.
