Quick Summary
Rittal VX 9680.808 Baying System is a modular enclosure for partial doors and internal separation in automation projects. Engineers often struggle with rigid layouts and difficult cable routing, so this design offers flexible reconfiguration. It delivers IP54 protection (depending on panels) and is tested to IEC 61439-1/-2 standards to ensure reliability in harsh environments. The sheet-steel body, 1.5 mm thick, with a powder-coated exterior, plus the included enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates, translates to faster installation and lower total cost of ownership while supporting scalable, modular automation layouts.

Product description
VX Modular enclosure, WHdepth 800x2000x800 mm, sheet steel
Feature → Business Impact → Application: Modular baying design enables rapid reconfiguration of enclosures to accommodate evolving control architectures, reducing retrofit costs and downtime for production lines. This translates to faster changeovers and improved project predictability in automation projects, especially where control panels must be redistributed or expanded. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Heavy-duty sheet steel at 1.5 mm thickness with a durable powder-coated finish provides robust protection in demanding environments, lowering maintenance needs and extending cabinet life in manufacturing and process automation. This is ideal for control cabinets in food, chemical, or machine-building industries where exposure to dust, moisture, and mechanical stress is common. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Supplied as a complete package—the enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates—enabling faster on-site assembly, fewer loose components, and cleaner cable management in control rooms and machine cells. This supports installation teams by simplifying sourcing and reducing job-site errors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Precise dimensions (800 mm width, 2000 mm height, 800 mm depth) and compatibility with standard baying configurations allow compact, scalable layouts in tight spaces, delivering higher cabinet density and better use of floor area. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP54 protection (dependent on panels) and IEC 61439-1/2 testing provide regulatory compliance and reliability, mitigating risk in electrical infrastructure projects and helping ensure safety certifications across plant facilities. Sustainability and lifecycle considerations are addressed with cradle-to-gate PCF data (158.2 kg CO2 eq, Category B), supporting responsible procurement and green objectives in industrial operations.

FAQs
VX 9680.808 is a modular 800 mm wide, 2000 mm high, 800 mm deep enclosure designed for baying configurations. It ships with the enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates, so it integrates smoothly with current VX systems and standard mounting arrangements, minimizing custom fabrication and alignment issues on site.
The enclosure is tested to IEC 61439-1/2, ensuring safe and reliable operation for switchgear assemblies. It offers protection up to IP54 depending on panels, aligning with IEC 60529. These certifications help ensure compliance, safety, and performance in industrial automation environments.
Yes. Its modular baying design supports flexible layouts with internal separation, and the sheet-steel construction with powder coating provides durability in challenging environments. The IP54 rating can be achieved with appropriate panels, making it suitable for industrial automation cabinets and control rooms.
Plan for a single-pack shipment containing the enclosure frame, rear panel, and gland plates, with a weight of about 64.2 kg per pack. The dimensions fit standard bays, and the 1.5 mm sheet steel body supports durable use. Consider future expansion and ensure compatible gland plate configurations to maintain IP protection as panels are added.
The cradle-to-gate PCF is 158.2 kg CO2 eq (Category B), reflecting the embodied carbon of the product’s weight and materials at production. This data supports sustainability assessments and procurement decisions in green initiatives while comparing total lifecycle impacts across competing enclosures.
