FAQs
Start with the right-front-hinged door configuration (can be swapped to left) and mount the rear panel and roof plate. Align the 699x1096 mm mounting plate with the two punched rails 18x39 mm to support your internal components. Connect gland plates as needed and route cables through provided access points to minimize bending and interference, ensuring IP55 integrity and IK10 protection are maintained.
Yes. The enclosure specifies IP55 protection against dust ingress and water jets, plus IK10 impact resistance for heavy mechanical shocks. Combined with NEMA 1 and UL 50E Type 1 compatibility, it delivers robust suitability for factory floors, switchgear housings, and automated production lines where reliability is critical.
Absolutely. The VX 8815.000 is designed to meet UL 50E Type 1 and NEMA 1 categories, which supports basic non-hazardous environments and broad market acceptance. This makes it appropriate for standard control cabinets and non-hazardous industrial installations across multiple regions.
The enclosure features IP55 and IK10 protection, NEMA 1 compatibility, UL 50E Type 1 suitability, and a powder-coated exterior in RAL 7035 with dipcoat-primed internal surfaces. These finishes and ratings simplify regulatory compliance, improve longevity in challenging environments, and streamline maintenance and cleaning in production settings.
ROI benefits come from faster installation, reduced field wiring time, and longer intervals between maintenance due to robust protection and corrosion resistance. The powder-coated exterior and durable sheet steel lower refurbishment costs, while standardized mounting Rails and plate sizes simplify component upgrades, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the cabinet lifecycle.
