Quick Summary

Rittal VX 8884.000 Enclosure provides robust protection for electrical control panels in demanding industrial environments. Engineers often struggle with interior layout, mounting flexibility, and cable management in large frames. With IP55 protection for dust and water ingress, IK10 impact resistance, and UL 50E Type 1 compliance, this enclosure supports regulated installations and safe operation. As part of the VX Baying enclosure system, it leverages sheet-steel construction and a modular mounting plate to streamline assembly, serviceability, and future upgrades. This translates to faster deployment, reduced field wiring errors, and lower total cost of ownership for automation projects in manufacturing and process industries. The design supports scalable enclosures, compatible gland plates, and adaptable door configurations to suit evolving control cabinet needs.

Interior layout flexibility and mounting plate enable rapid reconfiguration. The VX 8884.000 uses a dedicated mounting plate and two punched rails that support multiple interior arrangements, making it easier to route cables, locate components, and swap equipment without a full enclosure rebuild. This reduces commissioning time, minimizes wiring errors, and supports scalable layouts for future expansion in machine automation and process control cabinets. Protection and compliance deliver predictable performance. With IP 55 protection against dust and moisture ingress, IK10 impact resistance, and UL 50E Type 1/NEMA 1 compatibility, the cabinet meets core industrial standards while safeguarding sensitive electronics in demanding environments. The result is fewer unplanned outages, smoother regulatory clearance, and longer service intervals for critical equipment. Door orientation and accessibility enhance adaptability. The right-hinged door can be swapped to the left to fit existing plant layouts, enabling installation in tight spaces or retrofits with minimal rework. This flexibility minimizes on-site modification costs and accelerates project delivery in multi-line facilities. Finish and durability support long service life. The enclosure features a dip-coated frame, powder-coated exterior in a textured finish, and zinc-plated gland plates, delivering corrosion resistance and easy maintenance in factory floors, wash-down zones, and temperature-variant installations. Dimensions, weight, and packaging map to efficient supply and installation. With a width of 800 mm, height 1,800 mm, depth 400 mm, mounting plate 699×1,696 mm, and a packed weight of 109 kg, the system aligns with standard rails and hardware for straightforward shipment and on-site assembly. PCF data also informs sustainability planning.
