Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VX 8418.000 provides 482.6 mm (19") adaptor sections at the front and a hinged front frame, enabling rapid 19" equipment mounting and straightforward field upgrades in machine dashboards and control cabinets. This modularity reduces engineering time, speeds commissioning, and lowers change-out costs in automation lines. Application: Ideal for large 19" control panels and modular automation installations where future upgrades are anticipated. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Construction uses sheet steel with a 1.5 mm frame and 2.0 mm rear door, delivering robust mechanical integrity and EMI shielding for harsh factory environments. This translates to higher uptime and less maintenance, particularly in robotics and CNC equipment enclaves. Application: Industrial automation cabinets and service enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Surface finish combines dipcoat primed with powder-coated exterior and textured paint, plus zinc-plated gland plates, providing corrosion resistance and a visually durable finish. This reduces repaint cycles and maintenance costs in harsh environments. Application: Outdoor or factory-floor enclosures with demanding exposure. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Dimensions and space planning are clear with Width 600 mm, Height 1,600 mm, Depth 800 mm and an installation height of 33 U, supporting predictable component layout and easy wiring. Application: Control cabinet design for scalable automation with known space budgets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Supplied as a complete kit with enclosure frame, front frame, rear door (hinge on right, can swap), roof plate, gland plates, and 482.6 mm adaptor sections, enabling fast installation and reduced field assembly. Application: Retrofit or upgrade projects where turnkey assemblies are preferred. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Weight per pack of 63.2 kg and PCF of 155.7 kg CO2 eq (Cat B) provide a realistic balance of durability and sustainability, enabling responsible procurement and lifecycle planning. Application: Greenfield and retrofit programs seeking predictable carbon footprints. Feature → Business Impact → Application: EAN, ETIM and ECLASS classifications (4028177920224; EC000261; 27180101) ensure easy procurement cross-referencing and data-driven sourcing. Application: B2B purchasing optimization and ERP/MERP integration.
