Quick Summary
VX 8617.040 is a punched-section mounting accessory for outer-level installation in VX enclosures. Engineers often struggle with aligning interior components through limited access points, so this part enables precise positioning from the outside and fast screw-fastening. CE conformity is common for EU safety standards and IP rating considerations depend on the overall enclosure system, not just the accessory; when SIL-rated control panels are involved, system-level compliance applies. This accessory integrates seamlessly with VX enclosures, delivering reliable interior installation options, reduced field labor, and scalable compatibility across enclosure families for efficient manufacturing and serviceability.

FAQs
Install by locating the punched section into the system punchings from the outside and secure with the included assembly parts. The outer mounting level option enables rapid interior installation without disassembly, supporting 800 mm width/depth VX configurations.
Key specs include material: sheet steel with zinc-plated finish; mounting flange: 18 x 64 mm; intended for outer mounting level; compatible with VX enclosures up to 800 mm width/depth; packs of 4; weight per pack: 3.56 kg; includes assembly parts.
CE conformity is applicable for EU safety compliance of the overall enclosure system. IP ratings depend on the complete cabinet assembly rather than the accessory alone; plan for enclosure IP protection in combination with this mounting piece and the primary VX enclosure.
It supports installation on the outer mounting level or directly on the enclosure section, with simple screw-fastening from the exterior. This flexibility facilitates interior reconfiguration and panel upgrades without removing the enclosure cover.
It speeds interior installation, reduces field labor, and provides a standardized, scalable solution across VX enclosures. The inclusion of assembly parts and zinc-plated durability adds reliability and lowers total cost of ownership in production environments.
