Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8617.370 mounting kit enables rear-mounted, adjustable mounting plate installation inside VX enclosures. Offset the mounting plate up to 20 mm in depth and install from the rear, reducing front-edge crowding and simplifying servicing. While many assemblies rely on front-only mounting, this accessory offers interlocking front and rear access, cutting downtime during maintenance and allowing quicker field upgrades. The kit is designed for CE-conforming industrial environments and fits VX enclosure families that commonly use ETIM EC002620 and ECLASS 27189234 classifications, with a zinc-plated, passivated sheet steel build. In practice, you gain faster commissioning, easier retrofits, and improved lifecycle costs for automation cabinets.

FAQs
The VX 8617.370 supports rear installation with a mounting plate offset up to 20 mm in depth and the ability to install from the rear while maintaining access from the front for servicing. It includes six holders and assembly parts to facilitate a complete retrofit or new install without requiring additional hardware.
The kit is manufactured from sheet steel and finished with zinc plating and passivation to resist corrosion. The 0.805 kg pack size and robust finish are designed for industrial environments, offering reliable performance in dusty, moist, and temperature-variant settings typical of automation cabinets.
Designed specifically to fit VX enclosure types, the mounting kit allows rear and front servicing, enabling maintenance without disassembling the entire enclosure. This compatibility simplifies upgrade projects and reduces downtime, particularly in modular automation installations where quick plate access is beneficial.
The data indicates ETIM EC002620 and ECLASS 27189234 classifications; explicit CE or IP certifications are not listed for the mounting kit itself. Users should verify with Rittal or their compliance team for CE conformity notes and any IP-related considerations tied to the VX enclosure system.
By enabling depth-offset rear mounting and front/rear servicing, the kit shortens commissioning times and streamlines maintenance, reducing downtime and lifecycle costs. Its compatibility with VX enclosures and included hardware supports faster retrofits and predictable logistics for ongoing automation projects.
