FAQs
The TP 6717.500 TopConsole is designed for 3‑part assembly within the TopConsole system, enabling seamless integration with existing Rittal enclosures. Its 1600 mm width and mounting interfaces support standard assembly patterns, making it straightforward to extend or reconfigure layouts without replacing entire cabinets. Installation favors common fasteners, cable-entry practices, and alignment with established mounting rails for predictable, repeatable results.
This desk unit carries IP55 protection for dust and water ingress, IK08 impact resistance for mechanical shocks, and NEMA 12 compatibility for dust and oil protection. Together, these ratings reduce exposure to contaminants and physical damage in typical manufacturing and processing environments, lowering maintenance needs and extending uptime for critical control electronics.
Yes. The unit includes an opening for running cables into the enclosure base, coupled with a hinged rear cover and automatic locking stays for secure, quick access. Its dedicated cable-entry provision, combined with the 1600x730 mm footprint, supports clean, organized wiring and minimizes post-install rework during changes in layout or upgrades.
Plan for a 1600x730 mm workspace with a 235 mm height and 730 mm depth, using the sheet-steel construction and RAL 7035 finish for durability and visibility. The enclosure weighs about 48 kg per pack, includes a rear-hinged cover and locking/stays system, and is compatible with typical mounting rails and cabling standards used in industrial panels, facilitating straightforward installation and service access.
The modular 3‑part TopConsole design reduces design cycles and enables scalable upgrades, lowering lifecycle costs. Rugged IP55/IK08/NEMA 12 protection minimizes downtime due to environmental or mechanical stress, while the durable sheet-steel construction and powder-coated finish reduce maintenance needs and rework. Overall, expect faster deployments, easier maintenance, and better long-term total cost of ownership in automation projects.
