Product description
VX Mounting plate attachment, type B, sheet steel
The VX 8617.351 is built from sheet steel with a zinc plated, passivated finish, delivering robust corrosion resistance in harsh environments. This translates to longer service life and reduced maintenance, lowering total cost of ownership for control panels and electrical cabinets. The design allows simple mounting directly on the enclosure frame or punched section, using a mounting flange 23 x 64 mm, which shortens installation time and minimizes field labor. You can choose between screw-fastened or form-fit connections, offering installation flexibility across a range of enclosures without modifying the mounting plane. Supply includes all assembly parts, with packs of 10 and a weight of 1.53 kg per pack, enabling streamlined stocking and logistics. A cradle-to-gate PCF of 5.8 kg CO2 eq per pack (Cat B) supports sustainability goals and procurement reporting. This solution is compatible with standard enclosure ecosystems, reducing compatibility risk and accelerating project timelines.

FAQs
Begin by aligning the mounting plate attachment with the enclosure frame or punched section. Use the 23 × 64 mm mounting flange to position the part, then secure with the appropriate fasteners for either a screw-fastened or form-fit connection. The assembly parts supplied ensure correct alignment and torque values, reducing misfit and service downtime during installation.
Yes. The VX 8617.351 is designed to integrate directly with mounting flanges that measure 23 × 64 mm, enabling straightforward, tool-friendly installation on both enclosure frames and punched sections. This compatibility simplifies retrofits and new builds by eliminating custom adapters and ensuring consistent mounting geometry across panels.
The attachment is constructed from sheet steel and finished with zinc plating and passivation. This combination provides durable corrosion resistance suitable for industrial environments, contributing to longer service life and reduced maintenance without compromising mounting stability or electrical enclosure integrity.
The data does not list CE, SIL, or IP certifications. It references ETIM 9 EC002620 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261, which support data interoperability and procurement classification. For regulatory certifications, confirm with the supplier or Rittal documentation to ensure alignment with your specific regional requirements.
By stabilizing mounting plates and reducing vibration, this attachment lowers wear on fasteners and mounted components, improving system uptime and reducing maintenance cycles. The 10-pack packaging and assembly-friendly design shorten installation time, while the low weight per pack and sustainable PCF rating help optimize logistics and lifecycle cost in mass panel deployments.
