Rittal VX 8001.214 Gland Plate - Zinc-plated Sheet Steel
Part Number: 8001214
Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8001.214 gland plate configures VX enclosure floor-space for flexible installations. It helps engineers overcome rigid base openings by enabling modular layout and reliable grounding through assembly components and earthing points. Two critical certifications to verify are UL-listed status for electrical safety and CE conformity for EU markets; IP ratings depend on installation environment. Durability is enhanced by the zinc-plated sheet steel, supporting long service life in demanding environments. In practice, this accessory streamlines procurement and reduces field fabrication time, while maintaining compatibility with VX, VX IT, VX SE, CX consoles, and pedestals.

The product listing references UL-listed assets, indicating electrical safety compliance in UL contexts. CE conformity is not explicitly stated in the provided data; verify CE compliance with your supplier for EU-market usage and any regional requirements relevant to your project.
The VX 8001.214 includes assembly components and earthing points to facilitate potential equalisation and grounding connections. This supports safe operation and reduces wiring complexity when configuring the base area of VX enclosures, while the note indicates that at least one sliding plate is required to fully seal the base opening.
Plan the base layout using the 600 mm width guideline, ensure you have the included assembly parts ready, connect grounding points as you assemble, and install a sliding plate to seal the base opening. This approach minimizes field fabrication, improves grounding reliability, and speeds up commissioning in VX-based installations.
