Quick Summary
The Rittal VX 8880.000 Enclosure offers robust cabinet protection for industrial control panels. When upgrading or installing, engineers often face slow interior installations and limited door flexibility. This model delivers IP55 protection, IK10 impact resistance, and UL 50E Type 1, with NEMA 1 compatibility for durability in demanding environments. A powder-coated exterior, RAL 7035 color, and a purpose-built mounting plate with gland plates enable fast, scalable layouts without compromising access. These attributes support efficient interior installation, predictable lead times, and improved serviceability for automation projects. The system’s 699x1696 mounting plate fits common 18x39 mm punched rails for quick rail mounting.

FAQs
The VX 8880.000 is designed around a 699x1696 mm mounting plate and standard 18x39 mm punched rails, enabling straightforward retrofits or new builds. Doors are hinged on the right by default but can be swapped to the left, and gland plates provide flexible cable entry. This means technicians can reuse existing mounting patterns while achieving clean, organized interiors with minimal alterations.
This enclosure delivers IP55 protection and IK10 impact resistance, with NEMA 1 compatibility and UL 50E Type 1 listing. It uses sheet steel construction and a dipcoat-primed exterior with powder-coated exterior doors to meet harsh industrial conditions. These certifications support reliable operation in manufacturing floors, electrical infrastructure, and process automation environments.
Yes. Built from specified sheet steel gauges and finished with durable powder coating on exterior surfaces, the VX 8880.000 is suitable for dusty, humid, or temperature-variable environments. The IP55 rating guards against dust and water ingress, while IK10 ensures protection against mechanical impacts common in busy industrial spaces.
The enclosure complies with UL 50E Type 1 and NEMA 1 classifications, in addition to IP55 and IK10 protection ratings. It also adheres to standard color and material specifications (RAL 7035 and sheet steel construction) and is compatible with UL/CE-focused procurement practices, supporting regulatory conformity and safe electrical installations.
By enabling quick interior assembly with a mounting plate, readily swappable door orientation, and standardized gland plates, maintenance intervals shorten and component swaps become simpler. The durable surface finish reduces corrosion-related downtime, while the cradle-to-gate PCF is documented for sustainability reporting, aiding in lifecycle planning and potential reductions in downtime-related losses.
