Rittal 5301281 Partition for VX IT - IP20
Part Number: 5301281
Quick Summary
Partition for VX IT, model 5301281, suspends between two VX IT enclosures for organized rack mounting. Many installations struggle with cable routing and maintaining enclosure integrity when baying multiple cabinets. Key standards include IP20 protection with fitted caps, and alignment with ETIM EC002525 and ECLASS 27189234 to simplify procurement. This rugged partition leverages sheet steel, zinc-plated construction to withstand tough industrial environments, delivering reliable performance in automation and electrical cabinet applications. By enabling quick installation and consistent baying, it reduces downtime and improves serviceability, while supporting scalable VX IT configurations and compliant, tidy cable management.
