Quick Summary

Rittal CS 9781.868 Outdoor Enclosure protects electrical panels in outdoor environments and supports flexible bayable layouts for control systems. Many projects struggle with weather ingress, installation downtime, and limited interior space, making rugged, adaptable housings essential. This enclosure delivers IP55 protection with NEMA 3R suitability and IK10 impact resistance, built from a stainless steel frame and aluminum panels for durability in harsh conditions. By combining a bayable, twin-walled design with a 25 mm punchings-ready roof and base frame, it enables faster installation, scalable configurations, and easier cable management across industrial automation and electrical infrastructure applications. The result is improved uptime, reduced maintenance, and a safer, compliant control enclosure for outdoor deployments.

FAQs

Begin with a level, stable base and install the 100 mm base/plinth height to align drainage and cable entries. Use the two 2-size gland plates to route cables and seal entry points, then mount the rear panel and front door with the 4-point lock. The rain canopy should be affixed to the top frame to shed precipitation, while outer walls are earthed for full continuity. Finally ensure the door is correctly sealed and hinges oriented as required.
Yes. It is rated IP55 for protection against dust and water ingress and carries a NEMA 3R rating for outdoor use in varying weather. The IK10 protection class provides robust impact resistance, while the stainless steel frame and aluminum panels resist corrosion. This combination supports reliable operation in exposed industrial environments and reduces risk of unexpected downtime.
Interior mounting is enabled by 25 mm system punchings in the roof and base frame, plus vertical sections with two mounting levels. This arrangement supports flexible component placement and easy future expansion. The single door can be hinged on the right or swapped to the left, and the rear panel helps create a clean interior separation for equipment and cabling.
The enclosure provides IP55 protection and NEMA 3R suitability for outdoor installation, alongside IK10 impact resistance for strong protection against physical intrusion. It features a 4-point locking mechanism (BJ 20027) and a powder-coated UV-resistant finish in RAL 7035, ensuring both security and long-term cosmetic durability in outdoor environments.
The bayable, twin-walled design, combined with corrosion-resistant materials and robust mechanical protection, translates to longer service intervals and reduced maintenance. Standardized 25 mm punchings accelerate interior reconfiguration for new modules, lowering downtimes during upgrades. Overall, you gain higher uptime, safer operation, and predictable lifecycle costs for outdoor control cabinets.
