Product description
VX Side panel, screw-fastened, for HD: 2000x500 mm, sheet steel
Time-saving clip-in side panel holder accelerates installation by aligning the panel during attachment, reducing misalignment and rework. This translates to shorter commissioning times, lower labor costs, and more predictable project schedules. The design is especially beneficial in high-volume VX cabinet programs across manufacturing lines, data centers, and process plants where consistent enclosure sealing matters. Material and gauge: 1.5 mm sheet steel provides rigid support without excessive weight, preserving ease of handling during on-site mounting. The result is improved durability under vibration and impact, extending service life and reducing maintenance calls. This makes the VX 8105.245 side panel a smart choice for machinery rooms and outdoor installations where rugged protection matters. Finish and appearance: Dip-coated primed, powder-coated exterior yields corrosion resistance and a uniform finish in RAL 7035. The consistent coating simplifies multi-bay installations and reduces repaint cycles. This finish also supports compliance with internal aesthetics standards in controlled environments while maintaining long-term color stability. Sealing and safety: IP55 protection and UL 50E Type 1 certification provide confidence against dust ingress and incidental contact, aligning with common industry requirements. These protections help meet regulatory expectations without additional enclosure accessories, saving space and cost. The panel remains compatible with VX enclosure systems, ensuring a cohesive and maintainable footprint across the line. Logistics and sustainability: packs of two units with assembly parts included, weight per pack 24.2 kg, and PCF of 92.2 kg CO2 eq per pack (Category B). This combination supports predictable shipping, stock management, and sustainability reporting while enabling staged deployments. Compatibility is confirmed for VX enclosures with height 2000 mm and 500 mm depth, ensuring straightforward integration into existing builds.

FAQs

Yes. The VX 8105.245 is designed specifically to fit VX enclosures with a 2000 mm height and 500 mm depth. It comes in packs of two and includes assembly parts to ensure a straightforward integration into existing VX cabinet programs. Confirm compatibility by matching enclosure dimensions and mounting hole patterns to maintain a seamless seal and corrosion protection.
The panel uses a clip-in holder to align and attach without extensive tooling. Typical steps include positioning the panel against the VX frame, engaging the clip-in holder, and securing with the included assembly parts. This minimizes field handling time and reduces the risk of misalignment, helping crews meet tight installation schedules with consistent sealing performance.
Yes. The side panel carries an IP55 rating under IEC 60 529 for protection against dust ingress and water splashes, and UL 50E Type 1 compliance for enclosure protection in electrical installations. These certifications support reliable performance in harsh industrial environments and simplify pre-commissioning checks for safety and compliance teams.
Each pack contains two side panels with assembly parts and weighs 24.2 kg. The PCF (cradle-to-gate) is 92.2 kg CO2 equivalent per pack, categorized as Category B. This data supports logistics planning, sustainability reporting, and scope-for-scale deployments across multiple VX installations while preserving overall system performance.
The clip-in design reduces installation time and field labor, lowering upfront costs and accelerating time-to-value. The 1.5 mm sheet steel delivers durable protection with low maintenance needs, while the durable powder-coated finish minimizes repaint cycles. Overall, expect faster commissioning, fewer seal-related issues, and improved lifecycle reliability across VX cabinet deployments.
