Rittal DK 7548.000 Earth Rail - 200 A Capacity
Part Number: 7548000
Quick Summary
Rittal DK 7548.000 Earth Rail is a vertical grounding solution designed for star earthing of cable clamp straps in patch panels within VX, VX IT, and TS enclosures. Installers often struggle with achieving reliable, low-resistance grounding in tight 19" racks and DIN pitch layouts, especially when multiple conductors must be routed neatly. This earth rail provides 15x 6 mm² earthing leads and fully adjustable earth terminals to accommodate varying conductor sizes and layouts. CE compliance and industry-standard classifications support procurement and compliance, while ETIM EC000329 and ECLASS 27400605 codes help automate description matching in ERP systems. The product combines high conductivity copper with robust mechanical design, delivering faster installation and predictable maintenance in industrial environments.

Product description
DK earth rail, vertical, L: 1945 mm, earthing leads: 15x 6 mm², L: 500 mm, conductor connection clamps: 16x 2.5-16 mm²
Length and DIN pitch compatibility enable easy integration with standard 25 mm DIN pitch distributors and 19" mounting angles, reducing installation time and minimizing retrofit complexity in existing panels. This directly translates to lower labor costs and faster project timelines in control cabinet upgrades and new builds. The 1,945 mm vertical rail supports large-scale grounding runs, while the 15x 6 mm² earthing leads and 16x conductor clamps (2.5-16 mm²) create a scalable, star-ground network that distributes current evenly and reduces risk of localized overheating in dense cable bundles. Made from ECu 57 in accordance with DIN EN 12 163 and DIN EN 13 601, the rail delivers high conductivity, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments, ensuring consistent performance across shifts. Fully adjustable earth terminals simplify field tailoring to varying conductor sizes, enabling precise bonding without rework and minimizing maintenance downtime. The assembly includes all necessary parts, and at 2.907 kg per pack, it is straightforward to handle and inventory for project planning and maintenance cycles. Compatible with VX, VX IT, and TS enclosure families, this rail provides a robust, scalable grounding solution that adapts to evolving electrical architectures while maintaining regulatory alignment and safe operation.

FAQs
Yes. The DK 7548.000 earth rail is designed to fit VX, VX IT, and TS enclosure families and uses the 25 mm DIN pitch pattern for straightforward integration with distributors and mounting angles.
The earth rail is designed with a current carrying capacity of approximately 200 A, enabling reliable grounding for dense panel layouts and multiple conductor runs without overheating.
Ideal for star earthing of cable clamp straps in patch panels, especially where multiple 6 mm² conductors and 2.5–16 mm² clamps must be consolidated in VX/VX IT/TS enclosures, improving ground stability and reducing wiring time.
The rail uses ECu 57 copper per DIN EN 12 163 and DIN EN 13 601, and is classified under ETIM EC000329 and ECLASS 27400605, supporting consistent data exchange and regulatory alignment in European environments.
Its fully adjustable terminals, high-conductivity copper, and plug-and-play assembly reduce rework and maintenance downtime, delivering faster commissioning, predictable performance, and lower lifecycle costs in control cabinets and patch-panel installations.
