These storage trays consist of a steel tray and a front-located steel rack. The top tray includes a removable tool caddy that can be placed along the top tray for flexible storage and organization of tools, components, and accessories. The front-facing rack contains two rows of slots for flexible positioning of the four included plastic storage bins, as shown in the image to the bottom right. See the animation to the right for assembly steps.

The PSY155/S spans the width of a 900 mm wide ScienceDesk Frame, while the PSY156/S spans the width of a 1200 mm wide ScienceDesk frame. The shelves can be mounted to either the 750 mm tall or 1000 mm tall posts for ScienceDesk frames (sold separately). Two overhead trays can be mounted onto a single set of mounting posts. All storage trays can also be mounted directly to our standard Ø1.5" posts.

Each storage tray comes with two hinged clamps for attachment to mounting posts, as shown in the image to the right. To install the tray, secure the clamps at the desired height on the posts. The tray can then be lowered onto the clamps and attached using the provided M6 cap screws. At this point the tray can be repositioned or leveled as required. For more details on installation, please see the animation to the above right, or the manual, which is available by clicking on the red Docs icon () below.

The bottom of the tray also contains five M6 taps spaced for compatibility with our PSY240 LED light strips or HDPS12 power outlets.

Hinged Clamps Allow for Quick Attachment to Mounting Posts

• Strong, Steel Tray
• Tray: 300 mm x 300 mm (11.81" x 11.81")
• 12.7 mm (0.50") High Lip Along All Four Edges Retains Equipment
• Maximum Load Capacity: 20 kg (44 lbs)
• PSY320 Includes a 750 mm (29.5") Tall Post

• Removable Rubber Pad Included

The PSY320 and PSY320/S Component Trays can be used to hold a variety of items, such as screws, hex keys, or other tools, near the working surface. A 12.7 mm (0.50") high lip on the four edges prevents parts from falling off of the tray, while the 300 mm x 300 mm (11.81" x 11.81") surface provides adequate space to hold needed tools. Each tray comes with a hinged clamp, shown to the right, to attach it to mounting posts. These clamps allow the tray to be installed anywhere on the post without removing the existing shelves. The trays also include a PSY322 Hinged Locking Clamp, which will hold the vertical position on the post while allowing for free rotational movement around the axis of the post.

A 750 mm (29.5") tall post is included with the PSY320 tray to attach directly to the ScienceDesk frame. If additional trays are needed we offer the PSY320/S, which do not include mounting posts. These additional trays are also ideal if you wish to use our 1000 mm (39.4") tall mounting posts (sold separately) instead of the 750 mm (29.5") tall posts provided with the PSY320. Each components tray can also be mounted directly to our standard Ø1.5" posts.

• 6" (152.0 mm) Diameter, 1.2" (31.0 mm) Deep Bowl with Pivoting Plastic Cowl
• Contents Retained Magnetically
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction
• Protective Rubber Cover on Magnet Prevents Marring of Mounting Surface

This Magnetic Storage Tray is ideal for storing small tools, cap screws, and other fasteners securely. The tray can be magnetically held horizontally or vertically to any ferrous surface such as an optical table or breadboard. When attached to a vertical surface, a plastic cowl holds nonmagnetic or loose items as shown to the right. The cowl pivots and clips in place at the upper and lower ends of travel to prevent accidental movement.

A rubber cover on the Ø3.25" (Ø82.5 mm) magnet protects the mounting surface from damage. The magnet serves two purposes; it attaches the tray to the ferrous surface and holds magnetic parts within the tray.

Locking Clamp Positioned Under Our PSY321 Breadboard Mounting Bracket, Holding it in Place and Allowing for Free Rotation of the Bracket

• Retain the Position of Ø1.5" Post Mounted Accessories
• Hinged Clamp Design Allows for Installation Without Removing Existing Shelves

Thorlabs PSY322 Hinged Locking Clamps are the ideal solution for preventing the unwanted movement of accessories along the axis of the post. Locking the clamp in place (5 mm hex key included) directly under a post-mounted accessory, as shown to the right, prevents the accessory from sliding down the post when it is loosened for adjustments. This also allows mounted shelving or brackets to be freely rotated around the axis of the post to a needed position at any time.
