B&R ECR165 — MULTI / MIDI Rack (165 mm)
The B&R ECR165 is a MULTI / MIDI rack from B&R’s
legacy Multicontrol control family. It is a mechanical carrier into which
the controller, power supply and plug-in I/O modules are slotted. The designation follows
B&R’s ECR… rack-numbering scheme, and the related ECR282
(rack, 282 mm) is documented in B&R’s own product listing — confirming the ECR…
series as genuine MULTI / MIDI rack hardware. Manufactured by B&R (Bernecker &
Rainer), Austria. A common retrofit and repair spare for existing MULTI / MIDI
installations.
- MULTI / MIDI rack hardware
ECR…rack numbering series (related: ECR282, rack 282 mm)- Mechanical carrier for controller, power supply and I/O modules
- Part of B&R’s Multicontrol family
- Legacy maintenance / retrofit spare
Key Features & Functions
Module Carrier
Holds the controller, power supply and plug-in I/O modules of a MULTI / MIDI system, providing the mechanical and backplane mounting for the rack assembly.
MULTI / MIDI Rack Family
Part of the ECR… rack series, alongside the documented ECR282 (rack,
282 mm) — the mechanical backbone of the Multicontrol system.
System Modularity
Allows modules to be added or replaced within the rack, supporting maintenance and expansion of the automation system.
Industrial Construction
Built for continuous operation inside industrial control cabinets and process environments.

Source note: The ECR… series is confirmed by B&R’s own listing for the
related ECR282 rack (282 mm). Exact dimensions, slot count, backplane type and
environmental ratings for the ECR165 specifically were not confirmed from
an official B&R datasheet — verify these before purchase.
Typical Application Scenarios
- Control Cabinet Mounting: housing MULTI / MIDI controllers, power supplies and I/O modules.
- Machine & Plant Control: serving as the rack backbone in industrial control systems.
- Legacy System Maintenance: keeping existing Multicontrol installations running with genuine rack hardware.
- Retrofit & Repair: replacing damaged or ageing racks in established systems.
- System Expansion: adding modules to an existing rack assembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the B&R ECR165?
It is a B&R MULTI / MIDI rack — the mechanical carrier for the controller, power supply and I/O modules of a Multicontrol system.
What does the number 165 mean?
In the ECR… series, the number appears to relate to the rack width; the
related ECR282 is documented as “rack, 282 mm”. Confirm the ECR165’s exact dimensions in
the B&R datasheet.
Which modules fit in it?
MULTI / MIDI modules — including the power supply modules (ECNT43-0, ECPA81-2, ECPE82-2, ECPE84-2) and positioning modules (ECPNC3-1) — subject to confirming the exact rack configuration and slot layout.
Is it compatible with modern B&R systems?
This is legacy MULTI / MIDI hardware. It is intended for existing Multicontrol installations and spare-part servicing, not for current-generation systems.
Where can I find the official datasheet?
Official technical documentation is available from B&R Industrial Automation and authorized distributors. Verify all specifications there before purchase.
