Product description
VX modular enclosure, WxHxD: 1000x2000x800 mm, sheet steel
The VX 9680.008 enclosure is 1000x2000x800 mm and is constructed from 1.5 mm sheet steel, providing a robust housing with ample interior space for medium-density control gear while maintaining a compact footprint. Supply includes the enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates, reducing sourcing steps and accelerating on-site assembly, which translates to shorter project timelines and fewer supplier touchpoints. Protection is validated up to IP54 (dependent on panel configuration) with IEC 61439-1/2 test compliance, delivering reliable dust and moisture resistance that lowers field failures and supports regulatory compliance. Finish and coating details—frame dipcoat-primed, rear panel powder-coated outside with textured paint, gland plates zinc-plated—offer superior corrosion resistance and low maintenance in harsh environments. Color is RAL 7035 for consistent plant-wide appearance, simplifying inspection and asset management across sites. Dimensions and packaging—width 1,000 mm, height 2,000 mm, depth 800 mm; weight per pack 135 kg; packs of 1—facilitate accurate logistics planning and safe handling during installation. Alignment with ETIM 9 EC000261 and ECLASS 8.0 27180101 enhances cataloging and procurement workflows across enterprise systems.

FAQs
VX 9680.008 ships with an enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates, enabling a straightforward retrofit into existing frames or new builds. Its standard 1000x2000x800 mm footprint matches common rack systems, while the 1.5 mm sheet steel construction supports quick alignment and secure fastenings. On-site installation is faster thanks to included components and compatible mounting points, reducing project lead times and simplifying commissioning for panel builders.
The enclosure offers protection up to IP54, depending on the panel configuration, and is tested to IEC 61439-1/2 standards. The frame is dip coat primed, the rear panel is powder-coated with a textured exterior, and gland plates are zinc-plated, delivering durable dust and water resistance suitable for demanding factory floors and outdoor-like environments.
Yes. With dimensions of 1000x2000x800 mm, a robust 1.5 mm sheet steel body, and a color specification of RAL 7035, this modular enclosure is ideal for machine-building control cabinets and electrical infrastructure housings. It supports scalable layouts, easy expansion, and consistent appearance across multi-site deployments, streamlining standardization and maintenance across plants.
VX 9680.008 is validated to IEC 61439-1/61439-2 and offers IP54 protection (panel-dependent). It carries an EAN of 4028177981331 and aligns with ETIM 9 EC000261 and ECLASS 8.0 27180101 classifications, aiding digital catalogs and procurement systems. This combination supports regulatory compliance, safer installations, and easier integration into modern automation workflows.
The powder-coated rear panel, zinc-plated gland plates, and durable sheet steel frame reduce corrosion and maintenance costs over the cabinet’s life. Supplied components simplify procurement and accelerate installation, cutting downtime during upgrades. The modular design also accommodates future expansion without full cabinet replacement, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership for capital-intensive automation projects.
