Product description
VX SE free-standing enclosure system, WHD: 1200x1800x300 mm, sheet steel, with mounting plate, two doors at the front
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VX SE free-standing design uses a roll-formed frame with roof and sides in one piece, delivering superior rigidity and fasterassembly while reducing panel misalignment. This translates to shorter project lead times and fewer on-site adjustments when wiring and mounting field devices in large control cabinets for packaging and process lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP55, NEMA 12, and UL 50E Type 1 ratings provide robust environmental protection for electronics in dusty or humid factory floors, improving uptime and reducing risk of costly faults in conveyors, motors, and automation panels. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Supplied mounting plate, gland plates, rear panel (detachable), two punched rails, and hinge options enable flexible layouts and easier cable management, cutting commissioning time and supporting rapid configuration changes in pilot lines or custom machinery. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Powder-coated exterior (RAL 7035) with zinc-plated mounting components extends service life in corrosive or wash-down environments, lowering maintenance cycles and total cost of ownership for long-running production cells. Feature → Business Impact → Application: VX25 accessory compatibility and a two-door arrangement allow scalable growth, larger enclosure widths, and streamlined retrofits in evolving automation architectures across automotive, food & beverage, and heavy industry.

FAQs
Yes, the SE 5824.600 is system-compatible with VX25 accessories. It includes a mounting plate sized 1099 mm by 1696 mm, plus two punched rails, enabling flexible internal layouts and easy integration of controllers and power devices.
The enclosure uses sheet steel construction with a 1.5 mm enclosure shell and a 2.0 mm door, plus a detachable 1.5 mm rear panel. It carries IP55 protection, NEMA 12 suitability, IK10 impact resistance, and UL 50E Type 1 compliance, with powder-coated external finish.
IP55 and NEMA 12 provide protection in many indoor and sheltered environments, but for full outdoor exposure additional weather-protection measures are recommended. The unit is best suited for factory floors, sheltered wash-down areas, and protected process lines.
Key certifications include IP55 (IEC 60529), NEMA 12, IK10, and UL 50E Type 1. The product also aligns with ETIM EC000261 and ECLASS 27180101, supporting procurement classification and interoperability across global supply chains.
The powder-coated exterior and zinc-plated mounting hardware resist corrosion, reducing maintenance intervals. Two-door access, detachable rear panel, and VX25 compatibility shorten service and upgrade cycles, delivering lower total cost of ownership and faster return on investment in automated production environments.
