Product description
VX Modular enclosure, WHdepth 400x2200x800 mm, sheet steel
Feature: Modular baying design with partial doors and internal separation. Business Impact: Accelerates deployment and future changes, reducing downtime during upgrades. Application: Scalable control cabinets in automation lines and manufacturing cells. The design enables quick reconfigurations without replacing the entire enclosure, translating to shorter project cycles and lower lifecycle costs. Feature: Material and finish. Business Impact: Combines mechanical strength with corrosion resistance, lowering maintenance and replacement costs. Application: Harsh factory floors and outdoor-adjacent installations where durability matters. The 1.5 mm sheet steel, dipcoat-primed frame, and powder-coated exterior in RAL 7035, along with zinc-plated gland plates, deliver long-term reliability and lower total cost of ownership. Feature: Protection and standards. Business Impact: Ensures regulatory compliance and predictable performance in varying environments. Application: Electrical cabinets in process industries and machine-building environments where IP protection up to 54 is required. The enclosure is tested to IEC 61 439-1/-2, providing confidence in duty cycles and humidity resistance. Feature: Inclusions and installation. Business Impact: Speeds up installation with ready-to-use components and straightforward integration. Application: Retrofit projects and new builds where a complete package (frame, rear panel, gland plates) reduces sourcing effort. Feature: Footprint and sustainability. Business Impact: Optimizes space planning and provides environmental data for procurement. Application: Design teams planning modular layouts; packaging includes 400x2200x800 mm dimensions and a cradle-to-gate PCF of 113.6 kg CO2 eq (Cat B) for sustainability reporting.
