The kit is supplied as a 2-pack with assembly parts to streamline alignment during installation, reducing setup time and ensuring repeatable results across multiple cabinets.
Key specifications include material: sheet steel with zinc-plated surface finish, article number VX 8617.402, product description: VX Slide rail for mounting plate in W: 1200 mm, packs: 2, weight per pack: 6 kg, supply includes assembly parts, EAN 4028177921115, ETIM 9 EC002620, and ECLASS 8.0 27189261. These details support accurate procurement and reference in BOMs.
Yes. The VX Slide Rail is purpose-built for side-entry mounting of mounting plates in 1200 mm-wide enclosures, enabling a set-forward position when required. Its robust sheet steel construction and zinc-plated finish provide durability and corrosion resistance suitable for typical industrial cabinet environments.
The product is classified under ETIM 9 EC002620 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261 for data interoperability and cataloging. While explicit SIL, CE, or IP ratings are not listed in the data, adherence to these standard classifications supports consistent procurement and integration with ERP systems and supplier data formats.
The 2-pack configuration with assembly parts reduces on-site assembly time and parts handling, improving install efficiency and reducing labor costs. Durable zinc-plated sheet steel enhances lifecycle reliability, while standardized data (ETIM/ECLASS) simplifies maintenance planning and procurement, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over panel infrastructure projects.
