Rittal VX IT 5301.304 Partition - Sheet steel zinc-plated
Part Number: 5301304
Quick Summary
Rittal VX IT 5301.304 partition is a retrofit solution enabling retrospective installation for bayed VX IT enclosures. Engineers facing downtime and sealing challenges when expanding or reorganizing cabinet rows often struggle to keep climate control and gas extinguishing requirements intact during retrofit projects. This partition supports integrated sealing profiles, improving enclosure integrity and reducing risk during modification. It aligns with industry classifications such as ETIM EC002525 and ECLASS 27189234, underscoring its compatibility with modern procurement systems and technical catalogs. The solution also supports climate-control sealing and extinguisher-gas applications, helping protect sensitive equipment. By enabling outside fitting before baying or inside retrofitting after baying, it delivers practical value for maintenance schedules and project ROI, while remaining compatible with standard VX IT frame geometries.
Product Information
Extended Description
5301304 Rittal: For retrospective installation/dismantling of bayed enclosures. The integrated sealing profile supports enclosure sealing for climate control or for applications with extinguisher gas. It may be fitted from the outside prior to baying the enclosure, or from the inside after baying the enclosure. As the partition is located inside the frame structure, it may be retrofitted at any time. There are no specific required baying distances between the enclosures.

Retrofitting capability enables retrospective installation without full disassembly, reducing downtime and preserving existing cabling and components. This translates to faster project turnarounds and lower labor costs, especially in large bayed installations where sequencing upgrades is critical. The approach fits VX IT frames, supporting consistent mechanical interfaces and predictable fit. The integrated sealing profile ensures enclosure integrity for climate control and extinguisher-gas applications, improving safety and thermal performance. This feature directly reduces risk of leaks and thermal inconsistencies in mixed environments and supports compliance with enclosure integrity expectations. Installation versatility allows outside fitting before baying or inside retrofitting after baying, reducing planning constraints and on-site space requirements. Durability comes from sheet steel, zinc-plated construction, providing corrosion resistance and long-term mechanical strength in harsh industrial settings. The complete kit approach–two partitioning plates, four cover caps, a punched rail, seal and assembly parts–enables quick, reliable on-site assembly with minimal downtime. Compatibility and clear guidance are reinforced by the assembly instruction that specifies the method is for enclosures without interior installation, addressing common objections and ensuring proper use. Overall, the solution supports efficient retrofit planning, lowers total cost of ownership, and enables scalable expansion of VX IT systems without disruptive downtime.

FAQs
VX IT 5301.304 is designed to retrofit bayed VX IT enclosures. It fits inside the VX IT frame structure and can be mounted from the outside before baying or from the inside after baying. The kit includes partition plates, a seal, punched rail, and assembly parts to streamline installation while minimizing disruption to existing wiring and components.
The supply includes two partitioning plates, four cover caps, a punched rail, a seal and assembly parts. The integrated sealing profile provides enclosure sealing for climate control or extinguisher gas applications, helping maintain environmental performance and safety during and after retrofit.
Yes. The partition’s sealing profile supports climate-controlled environments and applications involving extinguisher gas. This makes it suitable for retrofitting bayed enclosures where maintaining thermal management and gas safety are priorities, while preserving enclosure integrity during upgrades.
The VX IT 5301.304 aligns with ETIM 9 EC002525 and ECLASS 8.0 27189234 classifications. While these classifications support cataloging and procurement, regional standards (for example CE or IP ratings) should be confirmed per project scope and local regulatory requirements.
The retrofit capability reduces downtime and labor costs by enabling outside-in or inside-out installation, speeding project completion. Ongoing maintenance is simplified by the sealed partition, which helps sustain enclosure integrity over time and minimizes rework due to sealing failures or thermal inefficiencies.
