FAQs
The VX 8115.245 side panel is designed to fit VX enclosures with a height of 1,200 mm and a depth of 500 mm. It ships as a two-pack with assembly parts included, ensuring a straightforward retrofit or initial build. This compatibility minimizes mis-orders and accelerates procurement for panel installers and system integrators.
The clip-in panel holder enables fast, tool-light mounting by aligning and locking panels into the VX frame without multiple screws. This reduces handling steps, minimizes misalignment, and shortens overall installation time, which is especially valuable during large-scale panel builds or on busy shop floors.
With an IP 55 rating, the side panel provides protection against dust and water jets, making it suitable for indoor industrial environments and moderately protected outdoor applications where enclosure integrity is a concern. The powder coated finish also enhances durability in demanding factory settings.
The panel meets IEC based IP protection for class IP 55 and UL 50E Type 1 for electrical enclosure assemblies. The finish is dipcoat-primed with an outside powder coating, and the color is RAL 7035, ensuring consistent compliance with standard industrial cabinet aesthetics and performance requirements.
Each pack contains 2 panels weighing 14.8 kg, with a cradle-to-gate PCF of 56.4 kg CO2 eq (Category B), supporting lifecycle assessment goals. Two-pack packaging improves shipping efficiency and reduces packaging overhead, contributing to lean procurement and faster installation cycles in automation projects.
