Quick Summary
The Rittal VX 8660.091 vented base/plinth trim panel enables controlled ventilation for VX enclosure families. Without this vented panel, heat buildup and dust intrusion can undermine reliability in compact installations. It aligns with UL 50E Type 1 ratings and uses sheet steel finished in RAL 9005 for durable, compliant enclosures. Compatible with VX, VX IT, VX SE and other VX-based systems, it supports quick installation and scalable ventilation strategies. The optional side attachment feature simplifies multi-face venting for larger enclosures and reduces service downtime. For procurement and stocking, the 2-pack formulation streamlines warehouse planning and on-site replacements.

Product description
VX base/plinth trim panel, vented, for W/D: 800 mm, sheet steel
The vented design provides targeted airflow around critical components, reducing hotspots and extending service life in demanding environments. This translates to fewer breakdowns and lower maintenance costs, especially in VX enclosure families used in automation and control panels. The panel's sheet steel construction finished in RAL 9005 delivers robust protection against corrosion while maintaining a professional appearance in industrial settings. Compatible with VX, VX IT, VX SE and related VX-based systems, the 100 mm high trim piece suits an 800 mm width/depth footprint, simplifying enclosure ventilation without overhauling existing racks. Supply includes assembly parts, aligning with straightforward installation and minimal field rework. The option to attach vented trim panels to the sides of base/plinth corners enables scalable ventilation across multiple faces, reducing drilling and mounting time. Packaging is economical, with a 2-pack and a weight of 1.93 kg per panel, supporting efficient stocking and quick replacements in service bays. Overall, VX 8660.091 delivers reliable cooling for industrial infrastructure while keeping installation costs predictable and maintenance-friendly.

FAQs
VX 8660.091 is designed for VX family enclosures and fits VX, VX IT, VX SE, TS, TS IT, TP, PC, IW and CX variants with an 800 mm width/depth. The height is 100 mm, and the supply includes assembly parts to streamline mounting on the base/plinth system VX.
The vented base/plinth trim panel creates a controlled airflow path at the enclosure base, reducing heat accumulation around power supplies and control modules. This helps maintain nominal operating temperatures, extend component life, and minimize downtime due to overheating in demanding industrial environments.
Yes. The vented design supports ventilation while the sheet steel construction provides robust protection in dirty environments. The RAL 9005 finish offers a durable, corrosion-resistant surface suitable for long-term HVAC and electrical infrastructure installations in manufacturing floors and data centers.
The panel aligns with UL 50E Type 1 enclosure ratings, indicating suitability for standard enclosure applications. Its material and finish (sheet steel, RAL 9005) support regulatory expectations for durable, compliant electrical infrastructure components.
The 2-pack configuration (1.93 kg per panel) simplifies warehouse stocking and on-site replacements, reducing trips to stockrooms and enabling faster service. With assembly parts included, technicians can complete base/plinth venting installations quickly, improving project timelines and return-on-investment for enclosure ventilation upgrades.
