Product description
VX Electronic enclosure, WHD: 600x1600x600 mm, sheet steel, with hinged front frame, with adaptor sections 19", single door at the rear
VX 8406.000 is part of the VX Baying enclosure system, sized WHD 400x2000x600 mm and built as a sheet steel frame with a single front door. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The sturdy sheet steel enclosure frame, door, rear panel, roof plate, gland plates, and a mounting plate provide a solid interior mounting environment that reduces wiring errors and supports reliable component placement in machine controls and electrical infrastructure. This translates to faster commissioning and easier future upgrades in automation applications. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The inclusion of 2 punched rails (18 x 39 mm) and a right-hinged door that can be swapped to left enables flexible installation in tight machine stalls and retrofit projects, improving space utilization and compatibility with existing panel designs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Materials and finish (dip coat primed, powder-coated exterior with textured paint; zinc-plated gland plates and mounting plate) deliver long-term corrosion resistance and low maintenance, ideal for manufacturing floors and outdoor-adjacent environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The enclosure’s protection ratings (IP55, IK10, NEMA 1, UL 50E Type 1) ensure regulatory compliance and safe operation in demanding settings, reducing risk and downtime. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The dimensions (Width 400 mm, Height 2,000 mm, Depth 600 mm) and mounting plate (299 mm x 1,896 mm) provide ample interior space for modular components, easing cable management and enabling scalable automation layouts. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Weight and packaging (75.2 kg per pack) are balanced for on-site handling, while the option to adjust door orientation and use pre-punched rails supports rapid installation and reduces installation labor costs. Industry context and sustainability notes (PCF 185.3 kg CO2 eq, Cat B) reflect responsible design choices that align with greener automation projects, without compromising performance.

FAQs
Install begins with placing the enclosure frame, mounting plate (299 mm x 1,896 mm), and rear panel, followed by the door installation on the right with the option to swap to left. Use the two punched rails 18x39 mm for DIN-rail components, and ensure gland plates align with the wiring plan. The process supports quick interior installation and straightforward expansion.
The VX 8406.000 provides IP55 protection, IK10 impact resistance, and NEMA 1 compatibility, with UL 50E Type 1 rating. This combination supports safe operation in dusty, damp, and demanding factory environments, while ensuring compliance with common industrial standards and regulatory expectations for control panels.
Yes. The enclosure ships with 2 punched rails (18x39 mm) and a mounting plate sized to fit typical DIN-rail mounted devices. The interior layout is designed for straightforward cabling and component placement, and the door orientation is reversible, aiding compatibility with existing panel configurations and facilitating retrofit projects.
Ideal for control panels in machine builders and panel builders, the VX 8406.000 supports robust electrical infrastructure and interior installation for automation systems. Its combination of protection, modular interior options, and scalable dimensions makes it suitable for process control, drive systems, and instrument panels that demand reliable protection and organized cabling.
Long-term ROI derives from corrosion-resistant finishes (dip coat primed exterior; powder-coated interior; zinc-plated gland plates) and durable sheet steel construction, reducing maintenance needs. The option to reorient the door and the modular interior design minimizes upgrade costs, while the enclosure’s durability supports lower downtime and extended service life in industrial settings.
