FAQs
VX 8620.072 is designed for use with the first-generation base/plinth system and should not be mixed with components from the 2nd generation system. Plan your layout around 1st-gen parts to ensure proper fit, stability, and finish. The kit includes assembly parts to simplify on-site installation.
The panel is 100 mm high and fits 600 mm depth base/plinths. It is manufactured from stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) with a brushed grain surface finish (grain 400). The weight per pack is 2.8 kg, with packs of 2 units included, supporting reliable, repeatable installations.
Yes. The VX 8620.072 is specified for bayed base/plinth installations, providing side finishing and interior stabilization. It is designed to integrate with bayed layouts while maintaining edge protection and alignment across adjacent units, helping achieve a clean, professional enclosure appearance.
The panel carries UL 50E Type 1 certification, indicating suitability for enclosure protection in industrial environments. It is classified under ETIM EC000721 and ECLASS 27182003 for standardised data exchange. This combination supports regulatory compliance, parts interoperability, and streamlined procurement across engineering teams.
By finishing base/plinth edges, the panel reduces edge damage and snag hazards, improves stability in bayed configurations, and shortens installation time due to included assembly parts. The 1.4301 stainless steel and brushed finish also lower long-term maintenance costs while maintaining appearance in harsh industrial environments.
