Quick Summary
Rittal 8660041 base/plinth trim panel provides side finishing for VX base units in bayed enclosures. Without a dedicated trim panel, base assemblies can flex, collect dust, and hinder interior configuration. This part carries UL 50E Type 1 protection and aligns with ETIM EC000721 and ECLASS 27182003 classifications for reliable procurement. Note that CE and IP ratings are not listed for this component—the system's enclosure-level performance determines those protections. By enabling precise fit and stable bases, the trim panel improves installation efficiency, supports consistent aesthetics, and reduces maintenance complexity across VX configurations.

FAQs
The VX 8660.041 base/plinth trim panel is designed to fit multiple VX family configurations, including VX, VX IT, and VX SE base units, as well as related models like TX CableNet, TS, TS IT, TP, PC, IW and CX where a 400 mm depth and 200 mm height trim is appropriate. This compatibility supports standardized baying across the portfolio and simplifies stock planning for mixed installations.
The trim panel has a height of 200 mm and is intended for a depth of 400 mm. Each panel weighs 1.89 kg, and packs contain two panels along with assembly parts. These metrics support predictable handling, quick on-site installation, and consistent balance within bayed base/plinth configurations.
Begin by confirming the base/plinth depth and height match the 400 mm by 200 mm footprint. Unpack the two panels and the included assembly parts, align them with the VX base, and secure per the provided hardware. The design ensures a tight finish along the enclosure sides, improving rigidity and interior organization with minimal tools and time.
The product carries UL 50E Type 1 protection, supporting safety requirements for industrial enclosures. It also aligns with ETIM 9 EC000721 and ETIM 8 EC000721 as well as ECLASS 8.0 27182003 classifications for procurement interoperability. Note that explicit CE and IP ratings are not listed for this individual trim panel; system-level enclosures determine those ratings.
Using the VX 8660.041 trim panel provides a finished, stable base with precise fit, reducing installation time and field adjustments. Its assembly-part inclusion minimizes procurement steps, while the sheet-steel construction enhances durability. The packaging supports sustainability reporting with a measured CO2 footprint (7.2 kg CO2 eq per pack) and helps maintain a consistent appearance across bayed VX configurations.
