Rittal VX 5335.816 VX IT Network Enclosure - Dynamic 52U
Part Number: 5335816
Quick Summary
VX IT network/server enclosure dynamics provide a robust cabinet solution for housing and ventilating IT gear in data centers and industrial facilities. When space is tight and cooling is critical, cable management and front/rear access can become bottlenecks without a flexible mounting and door system. It offers UL 2416 compatibility and aligns with ETIM 7.0 EC011217 and ECLASS 8.0 27180207 to support interoperability and procurement standards. The 52U footprint, 800 mm width, and 2450 mm height deliver scalable IT storage while vented doors and 180° hinges simplify maintenance. Durable powder-coated frames, combined with a high-quality aluminium/sheet steel door mix, enable reliable operation and easier serviceability in mixed data center and manufacturing environments.

FAQs
The enclosure uses dynamic 482.6 mm (19") mounting angles in the VX IT system, with front and rear mounting positions. This supports both new installations and upgrades, simplifies cable routing, and ensures stable load distribution for mixed IT and automation hardware.
Yes. With front and rear vented doors (~85% perforated), 800 mm width, 2,450 mm height, and 52U capacity, it accommodates dense server, network, and industrial control equipment while promoting effective front-to-back cooling.
The cabinet is designed for up to 18,000 N dynamic load and up to 15,000 N static load per UL 2416, providing robust support for heavy and tall equipment deployments in mixed environments.
The VX 5335.816 features a front aluminum/sheet steel vented door with 180° hinges and a rear sheet steel vented door, vertically divided, also with 180° hinges, enabling full access from both sides for installation and maintenance.
Supplied components include the enclosure frame with doors and roof plate, 482.6 mm mounting angles, spacers for passive cooling under the roof, 12 x 482.6 mm fasteners, 25 multi-tooth screws, and a set of height spacers to tailor clearance above fan cut-outs for improved cooling strategies.
