Product description
VX Baying enclosure system, WHD: 800x2000x600 mm, sheet steel, with mounting plate, single door at the front
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The VX 8806.000 uses a sheet-steel enclosure frame and a 2 mm front door with a 1.5–2.0 mm structural range, delivering high mechanical rigidity that reduces vibration-related wear in manufacturing cells and packaging lines. This translates to longer service life and lower maintenance overhead in heavy-duty environments such as material handling and assembly automation. Application: suitable for machine housings and control panels where durability and consistent performance are critical. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP55 ingress protection and IK10 impact resistance provide reliable dust and water exclusion and shock tolerance, minimizing downtime during washdown cycles and harsh factory floors. Application: food and beverage lines, robotics workstations, and automated conveyors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: included mounting plate (699 mm x 1,896 mm) and 18 x 39 mm punched rails enable fast interior installation and flexible component layout, reducing engineering time and trimming project schedules. Application: panel layouts for drives, PLCs, and I/O with room for expansion. Feature → Business Impact → Application: right-hinged door that can be swapped to left, plus gland plates and rear panel, offering installation versatility and future-proofing for equipment rearrangements. Application: retrofits and upgrades in evolving production lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: zinc-plated gland plates and textured exterior finish deliver corrosion resistance and long-term aesthetics, supporting outdoor or semi-exposed indoor environments. Application: industrial automation cabinets in challenging facilities. The combination of weight, rigid construction, and standardized components supports predictable lead times, easier sourcing, and lower total cost of ownership over the cabinet lifecycle.

FAQs
VX 8806.000 includes two punched rails (18 x 39 mm) and a mounting plate sized for broad component compatibility. The door is hinged on the right and can be swapped to the left, enabling flexible installation in tight spaces and allowing easy reconfiguration during panel updates or expansion projects.
IP55 protection provides protection against dust ingress and water jets, reducing corrosion and electrical faults in dusty or washdown environments. This translates to lower maintenance costs, longer service life, and higher uptime for automated lines and packaging systems.
Yes. The VX 8806.000 is rated IK10 for impact resistance and UL 50E Type 1 for electrical enclosure safety, which helps ensure safe operation and compliance in North American applications and robust control cabinet installations.
Plan for a 125.8 kg per-pack weight, a 800 mm width, 2,000 mm height, and 600 mm depth footprint. Use the mounting plate and glands provided, consider door orientation, and account for service clearances around a single-door enclosure to optimize wiring routes and future expansion.
The enclosure uses durable sheet steel with zinc-plated gland plates and a dipcoat-primed finish, reducing corrosion risk and maintenance. The PCF of 309.9 kg CO2 eq per pack supports greener design choices, while standardization with common rails and mounting hardware lowers inventory costs and supports scalable automation projects.
