Product description
TP TopConsole system, console for 3-part assembly, WHD 1600x720 mm, sheet steel
Three-part TopConsole assembly enables modular integration of control components, reducing install time and field rework. This translates to lower labor costs and improved swap-out agility during expansion or upgrade projects. In practice, technicians can tailor the console width for channeling cables and mounting devices, making it ideal for process automation cabinets where space is at a premium. IP55 ingress protection and IK08 impact resistance deliver robust protection in harsh environments, cutting corrosion risk and unplanned downtime. NEMA 12 compatibility reinforces compliance for indoor industrial spaces, enabling safe operation across US and international facilities. Material and surface finish provide durable exterior with good chemical resistance; dipcoat-primed and powder-coated finish resists abrasions and weathering, reducing repaint cycles and maintenance. The open base for cable entry and bottom-hinged cover simplify wiring and service access, especially during retrofits or line changes. Dimensions of 1,600 mm width, 720 mm height, and 240 mm depth support a compact, scalable layout for OEMs and integrators, while maintaining compatibility with standard mounting accessories.

FAQs
The 6723500 TopConsole is designed as a three-part assembly with an open base for cable entry and a bottom-hinged cover to simplify wiring and service access. It integrates with common control components placed within the 1,600 mm width, 720 mm height footprint, and 240 mm depth, supporting standard DIN rail mounting and compatible 19-inch accessories where space allows. For best results, plan a modular sequence that aligns module hot-spares and cable trays to the console’s open base, reducing field rework during expansions.
This enclosure carries IP55 protection against dust ingress and water jets, IK08 impact resistance for structural durability, and NEMA 12 suitability for indoor industrial environments. In practice, these ratings translate to reliable operation in factory floors with dust, light spray, and potential incidental impacts, while meeting broad international safety and equipment protection expectations. They are suitable for process automation and machine control panels where robust, maintenance-friendly protection is required.
No, the TP 6723.500 TopConsole is specified with IP55/IP-based protection, IK08 impact resistance, and NEMA 12 applicability for indoor industrial settings. It is not an explosion-proof or intrinsically safe enclosure. For hazardous areas, consult Rittal’s dedicated explosion-protected products and regional regulatory guidelines. If you anticipate frequent washdowns or high chemical exposure, verify material compatibility and finish performance in your specific environment.
Begin with the enclosure base and frame aligned to the mounting surface, then install the console components sequentially to fit the 1,600 mm width and 720 mm height. Use the open base for cable entry to route power and controller wiring before seating the door and console cover. Finally, secure the cover with the retainer and verify that seals are intact to preserve IP55 performance. This approach minimizes rework during future expansions.
The three-part modular design and bottom-hinged cover streamline access to internal wiring and devices, reducing service time during routine maintenance and upgrades. The sheet steel construction with powder-coated finish resists abrasion and corrosion, lowering repaint frequency. Open base cable entry simplifies wiring changes, enabling faster configuration changes for line reconfigurations, which translates to lower maintenance labor costs and shorter downtime windows during production changes.
