Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8617.120 is a versatile punched section for the inner mounting level of enclosure frames in compact enclosures. This part streamlines interior configuration to adapt to changing control layouts without compromising structural integrity. CE-aligned design and common IP-rated assembly practices support reliable panel builds, while compatibility with VX, VX SE, and AX families simplifies procurement. By enabling quick, screw-fastened mounting directly into the system punchings, it reduces installation time and minimizes field rework. This translates to lower labor costs, improved project predictability, and greater flexibility for future reconfigurations within your electrical infrastructure.

Product description
VX Punched section, with mounting flange 23 x 64 mm, for inner mounting level, for W/H/D: 500 mm
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VX 8617.120 is a punched section with a mounting flange 23 x 64 mm, enabling variable interior installation on the inner mounting level. Impact: It accelerates setup, reduces the need for custom brackets, and improves enclosure rigidity. Application: Ideal for 500 mm W/H/D VX-based enclosures where interior flexibility is required for modular components and bus bars. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Material is sheet steel with a zinc-plated surface finish, delivering corrosion resistance in humid or dusty environments. Impact: Longer service life, lower maintenance costs, and improved electrical reliability. Application: Suitable for panel assemblies exposed to industrial conditions across manufacturing floors and data-center enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Supply includes assembly parts and packs of four, with a weight of 1.97 kg per pack. Impact: Simplifies logistics, reduces downtime during stocking, and enables easier handling during field upgrades. Application: Useful for rapid replacement stock and scalable installations in multi-door VX enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: VX installation options specify placement in enclosure depth of 500 mm on the inner mounting level; VX SE options add adaptor rail compatibility. Impact: Expands retrofit and upgrade pathways, supporting standardized rails and future reconfigurations. Application: Migrates existing VX systems to newer interior mounting layouts without full enclosure replacement. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatibility with VX, VX IT, VX SE, AX, and AX plastic variants, plus related rails for interior installation. Impact: Reduces part proliferation, improves BOM clarity, and streamlines procurement. Application: Multiline projects and OEM builds where a single interior mounting solution covers diverse enclosure families.

FAQs
The VX 8617.120 is a punched section with a mounting flange designed for inner mounting levels inside compact VX-style enclosures. It is used to enable variable interior installations, allowing engineers to position frames and components precisely where space is tight while maintaining mechanical rigidity and service access. It fits 500 mm depth enclosures and works across VX, VX IT, VX SE, AX families.
Installation is straightforward: align the punched section with system punchings on the inner mounting level, then screw-fasten it into place using the supplied assembly parts. The design supports simple, repeatable mounting, reduces the need for custom brackets, and speeds up reconfiguration when internal layouts change or new components are added.
Yes. The VX 8617.120 is specified for VX families and offers installation options in conjunction with adaptor rails for VX compatibility (VX SE). It also supports interior installation on AX variants with appropriate rails. This compatibility minimizes spare parts and streamlines procurement across enclosure platforms in mixed-line environments.
The part is made from sheet steel and finished with a zinc-plated surface, providing corrosion resistance suitable for typical industrial environments. The zinc plating extends service life in damp or dusty installations, helping maintain electrical integrity and reducing maintenance intervals over the enclosure lifecycle.
Using the VX 8617.120 reduces installation time through fast, screw-fastened mounting and minimizes inventory complexity with a single part that covers multiple VX-family enclosures. The modular interior mounting level supports future reconfigurations, lowering total cost of ownership by simplifying upgrades, spare parts management, and field retrofits.
