Product description
VX Distribution enclosure (ISV), WHdepth 1100x2000x400 mm, sheet steel, two-door
Durable sheet steel construction provides robust mechanical protection for sensitive electronics, improving long-term reliability in demanding environments and enabling stable operation of ISV modules in automation panels. The IP 55/NEMA 12 protection combination minimizes dust and moisture ingress, reducing maintenance costs and downtime in manufacturing and process environments. The VX 9666.966 ships with a complete supply set — enclosure frame, doors, gland plates, rear panel, roof plate, and a right-hinged door that can be swapped to the left — delivering faster on-site installation and flexible layout planning for larger control systems. At 1,100 mm wide, 2,000 mm high, and 400 mm deep, the enclosure accommodates substantial electrical gear while maintaining a compact footprint; weight of 146 kg per pack supports secure, vibration-resistant mounting in retrofit projects. Powder-coated exterior with zinc-plated gland plates enhances corrosion resistance in semi-aggressive environments, aligning with industrial sanitation and washdown considerations. The cradle-to-gate PCF of 359.7 kg CO2 eq (Cat B) is a transparent footprint metric that supports sustainability reporting for capital projects. The enclosure is also compatible with VX basic enclosures for 600 mm wide distribution setups, expanding modularity across plant footprints.

FAQs
Plan for a 1,100 mm wide by 2,000 mm high footprint with 400 mm depth, ensuring stable mounting surface and clearance for ISV modules. The unit ships with a right-hand hinged door that can be swapped to the left, and includes gland plates, rear panel, and roof plate, simplifying wiring, cable entry, and panel layout during retrofit or new builds.
IP55 protects against dust ingress and water jets, while NEMA 12 guards against dust and non-corrosive liquids in indoor installations. Together they reduce the risk of ingress-related faults, support longer service intervals, and enable reliable operation in manufacturing floors, assembly lines, or process environments with wash-down or heavy dust exposure.
Yes. The enclosure is supplied with doors hinged on the right and may be swapped to the left to suit site layouts. This flexibility simplifies installation in tight spaces and aligns with existing panel designs, enabling a smoother integration with minimal rework during retrofits or new deployments.
The VX 9666.966 is IEC 61439-1/2 tested and carries IP 55 protection with a NEMA 12 rating. It also aligns with IEC 61 439-1/-2 test specifications and supports general industrial enclosure requirements, providing confidence in regulatory compliance and safe operation within standard automation environments.
The enclosure combines a dipcoat-primed frame with a powder-coated exterior and zinc-plated gland plates for corrosion resistance and durability. With a weight of 146 kg per pack, it offers stable, vibration-resistant mounting. Its rugged construction reduces maintenance frequency, extends service life for automation panels, and lowers lifecycle costs in high-demand production lines.
