FAQs
The VX 8808.000 installs with its mounting plate (699x1896 mm) fixed inside a frame, using two punched rails (18x39 mm) for DIN rails and the provided gland plates. Door orientation is right-hand hinged by default but can be swapped to left. Ensure proper DIN rail placement, cable routing through gland plates, and secure mounting using standard fasteners to achieve a compliant, tidy panel.
Key specs include width 800 mm, height 2000 mm, depth 800 mm, and a sheet steel construction with frame 1.5 mm, roof 1.5 mm, door 2.0 mm, rear panel 1.5 mm, gland plates 1.5 mm, and mounting plate 3.0 mm. It weighs 138 kg per pack, ships with two punched rails, and includes a 2-door/CD? configuration per pack. Protective ratings are IP55 and IK10, with NEMA 1 and UL 50E Type 1 compatibility.
Yes. The enclosure is rated IP55, providing dust protection and protection against water jets from all directions, making it suitable for harsh indoor and mild outdoor settings when installed with appropriate climate protection. The textured powder-coated exterior plus zinc-plated internal components further enhance corrosion resistance for long-term reliability.
VX 8808.000 carries IP55 protection, IK10 impact resistance, NEMA 1 enclosure classification, and UL 50E Type 1 compliance. It also aligns with standard ETIM 9/8 EC000261 and ECLASS 8.0 code 27180101, supporting clear procurement specifications and cross-system compatibility for industrial automation projects.
The enclosure offers durable sheet steel construction with corrosion-resistant finishing, reducing maintenance cycles and part replacements. Its modular mounting plate and gland plates streamline upgrades and reconfigurations, accelerating commissioning and minimizing downtime. A consistent RAL 7035 finish also lowers repainting costs, contributing to a favorable total cost of ownership in high-volume automation environments.
