Rittal VX 8951.010 VX Isolator - UL 50E Type 1
Part Number: 8951010
Quick Summary
Rittal VX 8951.010 is an isolator door cover that enables UL 50E safety locking for enclosure doors. Facility teams often struggle to achieve consistent, regulator-compliant locking across bayed enclosures during onboarding and routine maintenance. The solution delivers UL 50E Type 1 compliance, IP55 protection when paired with VX series enclosures, and NEMA 12 compatibility, providing robust defense against dust and splash. Built for rugged industrial environments, it also supports a main door lock, cover plate, and assembly parts to streamline installation. The powder-coated finish in RAL 7035 enhances corrosion resistance and aesthetics, while the 103 mm by 2,000 mm by 600 mm footprint fits standard VX frames, delivering tangible time and cost savings in project rollouts.
