Rittal 5301312 Baying Connector - IP54 Rated Protection
Part Number: 5301312
Quick Summary
Rittal 5301312 Baying Connector enables baying of VX IT enclosures to VX/TS/TS IT systems for modular cabinet configurations. The solution addresses common alignment and sealing challenges that slow installation and elevate risk of enclosure leakage. It supports IP54 protection (IEC 60529) at maximum, and complies with industry classifications such as ETIM EC002622 and ECLASS 27189263, alongside zinc-plated sheet steel construction. By integrating four external baying connectors, two internal connectors, and an eight-meter baying seal, it delivers a robust, scalable path to expanding enclosure arrays. For buyers, this means faster deployments, predictable performance, and a reduced total cost of ownership when expanding data center or industrial cabinet infrastructures, while maintaining durability and traceability in procurement systems.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: Baying connectors included with four external and two internal interfaces plus an eight-meter baying seal enable rapid, repeatable enclosure alignment, reducing installation time and tightening tolerances in VX IT to VX/TS/TS IT configurations. This translates into measurable efficiency gains on site and lower risk of misalignment-related leaks during commissioning. Application: ideal for growing VX IT cabinet farms in data centers and industrial facilities where modular expansion is frequent. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Sheet steel construction with zinc-plated surface provides durable corrosion resistance in harsh environments, extending service life and lowering maintenance cycles. Application: suitable for indoor and semi-outdoor installations where physical protection and longevity matter. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP54 protection target (IEC 60529) helps ensure environmental resilience in typical industrial settings, reducing rework due to ingress during commissioning. Application: supports reliability requirements in mixed humidity and dust-prone environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Pack configuration of six per pack with a weight of 1.158 kg per pack simplifies logistics and stocking for procurement teams, improving inventory planning and supply chain responsiveness. Application: ideal for standardized repacking and faster reordering. Feature → Business Impact → Application: PCF cradle-to-gate of 4.4 kg CO2 eq (Category B) supports sustainability reporting and green procurement programs, enabling lower environmental impact statements. Application: aligns with corporate ESG targets while maintaining cost discipline. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Broad compatibility with VX, VX IT/TS, and TS IT series along with included assembly parts reduces compatibility risk and accelerates project timelines. Application: ideal for system integrators and OEMs scaling multi-rack deployments while preserving install quality.
