Rittal VX 5302.028 Potential Equalisation Kit - UL Approved

Central potential equalisation rail provides a single consolidation point for all bonding connections, enabling continuous potential equalisation across the enclosure frame and connected equipment. The business impact is a measurable reduction in EMI risk, with fewer stray currents and more predictable functional earthing across the panel, which speeds commissioning and testing. This approach is ideal for VX IT enclosures in industrial automation—especially cabinets within the 1800–2000 mm height range—where a vertical, rack-bonding busbar ensures reliable bonding across the full height of the installation. Six earthing braids (M8), 16 mm², are supplied for sheet steel doors and side panels to guarantee uniform coverage. The business impact is faster, more repeatable installation with fewer improvised bonding solutions, reducing field errors and warranty incursions. This kit is designed for rack-integrated systems and can be integrated with existing frame structures to keep the bonding path central and accessible during maintenance. Rail length of 1545 mm and included assembly parts align with VX IT cabinets in the 1800–2000 mm height band, reducing on-site cutting and compatibility issues. The installation remains straightforward with assembly parts—reducing the risk of incorrect mounting or missing components. Note on cables: The specific connection cables between installed equipment and the potential equalisation rail must be supplied by the user, ensuring compatibility with existing equipment and cabling strategies. UL approvals provide a safety and compliance signal for system integrators, while the kit’s compact weight (1.066 kg per pack) and modular design simplify logistics, field retrofits, and ongoing maintenance.
