Quick Summary
Rittal CP 6372.562 Enclosure provides a robust aluminium housing with high thermal conductivity for reliable panel installations. Many enclosures struggle with heat buildup and limited service access in compact industrial cabinets. This design meets IP65 protection and NEMA 12 compatibility, while the natural anodised aluminium finish resists corrosion in harsh environments. Used in control panels, process automation, and electrical infrastructure, it supports front-panel BH 520x600 mm and offers efficient heat management. Customers gain predictable service life, easier maintenance, and faster installation thanks to the rear-hinged access and simple seal-and-lock system. Its lightweight yet stable design makes it suitable for upgrade projects and modular builds.

CP 6372.562 is sized for front panels BH 520x600 mm and uses a body width of 628.5 mm, height of 708.5 mm, and depth of 170 mm. It features a 152 mm installation depth and a Ø130 mm support arm connection. For installation, mount the enclosure to the frame, secure the front panel with the supplied seals and hardware, and use the rear-hinged access for servicing. The cam locks (3 mm double-bit) can be swapped to match security needs.
The aluminium extrusion provides high thermal conductivity, enabling effective passive cooling to keep internal temperatures under control in dense electronics. IP65 protection guards against dust and water ingress, while NEMA 12 compatibility supports rugged operation in demanding environments. Together, these features improve reliability, reduce cooling requirements, and lower maintenance costs for automation and control cabinets.
Industries such as manufacturing automation, process control, robotics, and electrical infrastructure installations benefit from the CP 6372.562. The rear-hinged design simplifies servicing in tight spaces, while the 520x600 front-panel compatibility supports modular upgrades and retrofits. This enclosure suits cabinets requiring sturdy protection, efficient heat management, and easy maintenance in demanding environments.
CP 6372.562 carries IP65 protection and NEMA 12 compliance, indicating robust ingress protection in harsh environments. The enclosure also references standardized product data such as ETIM EC002504 and ECLASS 27180505, supporting accurate classification in procurement systems. These certifications assist with regulatory alignment, safety audits, and compatibility with other standardized components in industrial systems.
The enclosure’s aluminium construction provides durability with low weight, aiding handling during installation and reducing labor costs. Rear access plus seals and components included in the supply promote faster maintenance and fewer safeguards. The combination of strong protection, modular front-panel compatibility, and reliable heat management supports lower downtime and extended service life, delivering favorable total cost of ownership.
