Product description
VX IT Compartment Rack, vented, 19" mounting angles front and rear, 2 compartments, 2 x 23 U, WHD: 800x2200x1000 mm, enclosure frame and panels: RAL 7035, interior components: RAL 9005
Feature → Business Impact → Application: Independent compartments with dual 19" mounting angles enable individually configurable sections, allowing IT and control modules to run without mutual interference. This reduces heat transfer risk between hot and cool zones and improves reliability in automation cabinets, data centers, and factory floors. Application: Industrial automation racks where separate access control and independent cabling are required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Vented front and rear doors for each compartment promote airflow and cooling efficiency, supporting higher-density deployments while maintaining enclosure integrity. Application: High-availability systems with sensitive electronics that demand consistent airflow in confined spaces. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Pre-configured mounting angles and centralized gland plates simplify installation and reduce field labor time by enabling plug-and-play integration with PDU and grounding accessories. Application: Projects needing fast deployment and reduced commissioning costs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Two compartments, each 482.6 mm (19”) wide with 2 x 23 U capacity, provide scalable rack space for modular IT and automation devices. Application: Organizations upgrading from single-chamber racks to dual-zone configurations without reshuffling existing gear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Grounding readiness and integrated air baffles improve compliance with electrical safety standards and support clean cable management. Application: Environments requiring robust electrical safety practices and organized cabling for regulated processes.

FAQs
The VX IT Compartment Rack uses standard 482.6 mm (19") mounting angles front and rear, with two independent compartments each supporting 23 U. This ensures seamless integration with existing IT and automation modules while preserving clear separation between compartments. Verify PDU reach and gland plate alignment during setup to avoid fitment issues.
Two independent compartments allow separate cabling and configuration for IT and automation gear, reducing heat transfer and cable crossovers. This leads to improved airflow, easier maintenance, and lower risk of cascading failures in mixed environments such as industrial control rooms and data processing racks.
Designed as a modular enclosure for industrial use, the rack supports vented doors and a robust sheet steel construction. When installed with appropriate gaskets and door seals, it can meet standard protective requirements for factory floors. Always confirm site-specific IP protection and environmental conditions with your integrator.
The enclosure includes a pre-configured central gland plate and provisions for earthing straps, enabling straightforward grounding of IT and control hardware. This alignment with electrical safety practices helps meet regulatory and internal compliance goals while simplifying maintenance routines.
Benefits include faster installation due to pre-configured mounting rails, improved uptime from isolated compartments, and easier routine servicing thanks to separate cabling paths. Over time, reduced risk of cross-thermal issues and simplified compliance workflows translate into lower maintenance costs and longer equipment life.
