Product description
VX Support rail 48 x 26 mm, for W: 1000 mm
Feature: Heavy-duty 48 x 26 mm support rail provides robust capacity for transformers and other large equipment. Business Impact: Ensures stable alignment and reduces vibration-related wear, extending component life and minimizing maintenance. Application: Ideal for 1000 mm wide enclosure installations where heavy gear must be securely mounted. Feature: Zinc-plated sheet steel finish delivers corrosion resistance in harsh industrial environments. Business Impact: lowers long-term maintenance costs and downtime due to rust or load-bearing degradation. Application: Suitable for outdoor or humid plant sections and indoor systems with aggressive atmospheres. Feature: VX installation options across enclosure families (VX, VX SE, PC, IW, AX, CX) and base/intra-level mounting. Business Impact: Accelerates project timelines by enabling plug-and-play compatibility and reducing accessory scouting. Application: Streamlines deployment across multi-architecture cabinets. Feature: Included assembly parts and two-pack packaging (weight 4.84 kg per pack). Business Impact: Simplifies on-site prep and reduces shipping, handling, and procurement complexity. Application: Fits batch installations in large-scale assemblies. Feature: Adaptor rails and base configuration options for VX and AX compatibility improve interior installation flexibility. Business Impact: Minimizes retrofits and allows scalable upgrades as systems evolve. Application: Supports future-proof enclosure strategies in data centers and industrial plants.

FAQs
The VX 8617.820 rail is designed for broad compatibility across Rittal enclosure families, including VX, VX SE, PC, IW, AX, and CX. It supports inner mounting level placements and base configurations, with assembly parts included to simplify cross-architecture installations. This flexibility helps standardize projects and reduces the need for multiple rail variants on site.
Installation options cover inner mounting level and base configurations within enclosure width 1000 mm, plus compatibility with adaptor rails for VX and base rails for AX. These options enable secure, precise mounting of heavy equipment while maintaining clean cable routing and service access, minimizing retrofit work and downtime during upgrades.
Yes. The VX 8617.820 is explicitly intended for heavy-installed equipment such as transformers. With a 48 × 26 mm cross-section, zinc-plated steel construction, and packs of two rails (4.84 kg per pack), it provides sturdy, vibration-resistant mounting suitable for demanding industrial environments and long-term reliability.
The rail aligns with industry classifications ETIM 9 EC001285 and ECLASS 8.0 27189261, and features a zinc-plated sheet steel construction. While exact certifications like CE or SIL aren’t listed in the data, these classifications support specification consistency, procurement traceability, and quality benchmarking in industrial projects.
Choosing the VX 8617.820 accelerates installation with ready-to-use assembly parts, reduces accessory skew, and enhances lifecycle cost efficiency through durable corrosion resistance and broad enclosure compatibility. The result is faster project completion, lower maintenance needs, and scalable capacity for future equipment upgrades.
