Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8660.007 base corner pieces provide a stable base for VX enclosures used in industrial control cabinets. Gaps or unstable bases can complicate cable routing and alignment, leading to assembly delays and reliability concerns. UL 50E Type 1 certification supports compliant cabinet performance, while the RAL 9005 finish and sheet steel construction reinforce durability in demanding environments. By combining robust base supports with trim panels, these components simplify installation, improve rigidity, and ensure consistent enclosure geometry. For engineers and procurement teams, the result is a repeatable, cost-efficient solution that enhances installation quality and long-term reliability while aligning with standard color-coding and material specs used across the VX family.

FAQs
Begin by preparing the enclosure base surface and aligning the four base/plinth corner pieces at the corners. Attach the front and rear trim panels to complete the base profile, then fit the four corner covers. Ensure the 100 mm height matches the enclosure footprint, tighten all mounting hardware to factory torque specs, and verify overall stability before cable routing.
The 100 mm height creates a stable, repeatable base plane that reduces wobble and misalignment during assembly. The UL 50E Type 1 rating confirms enclosure integrity under standard electrical enclosure tests, improving safety, compliance, and predictive maintenance planning. Together, they support reliable operation in demanding industrial environments.
Yes. The VX 8660.007 is designed to fit VX, VX IT, VX SE, TX CableNet, TS, TS IT, TP, PC, IW and CX enclosure families with a 1,200 mm width. This compatibility simplifies inventory management and enables a unified base solution across multiple enclosure platforms, reducing custom-fit parts and accelerating installations.
The product explicitly carries UL 50E Type 1 for enclosure performance. It is catalogued with ETIM 9 EC000721 and ECLASS 8.0 27182003 classifications, aiding digital product data exchange and cross-system integration. EAN 4028177978096 also supports precise product identification within procurement systems.
By delivering stable, pre-fitted base components, installation time and field rework are reduced, improving uptime and project throughput. The 7.01 kg per pack weight and 2-pack packaging optimize shipping and handling, while the noted PCF of 26.7 kg CO2 eq supports sustainability reporting and lifecycle cost considerations.
