Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8660.040 base/plinth trim panel provides a clean side finish for VX base units in enclosures, supporting professional aesthetics and durable installation. Without proper trim, gaps can accumulate dust, interfere with interior configuration, and slow down commissioning as crews chase misaligned panels. UL 50E Type 1 rating ensures safe, code-compliant performance, while ETIM EC000721 and ECLASS 8.0 27182003 classifications support accurate data exchanges for sourcing. This trim panel also aligns with VX family compatibility, enabling faster installations, reducing field adjustments, and delivering consistent finishes across multiple enclosures. Manufactured from sheet steel, finished in RAL 9005, and packaged in pairs with assembly parts, it offers predictable weight and handling during site installs.
