The VX25 baying enclosure is a floor standing enclosure suitable to accommodate electrical, electronic, mechanical and pneumatic equipment and components for indoor industrial applications. Test certificates to EN 60 529 verify that the enclosures are protected from dust and hosed water. The fully sealed interiors comply with the test certificates to EN 62 208 as a protected space.
Please check the scope of supply for completeness.
The mounting plate, door, rear panel, side panels, roof and rating plate of the enclosure have a QR code with the following data
Identifier | Data content |
#9| | Width |
#10| | Height |
#11| | Depth |
#50| | Item/spare part number |
#51| | Serial number |
Example of a mounting plate:

Prior to assembly, ensure that
If particular operating conditions apply, special agreements must be made between Rittal and the user.
Assembly instructions
Siting and attachment to the floor
Chassis for enclosure widths ≥ 1000 mm relevant for UL
1) Additionally for width 1000/1200
Three examples from the multitude of possibilities
The illustrations here show three examples for the fitting of cable entry plates in place of the standard three-part gland plates of the VX25 enclosure. Positioning can thus be matched to the mounting plate. The symmetrical enclosure design permits the cable entry plates to be installed on either the right or left, in the same way as the gland plates – variation in the enclosure depth is similarly possible with appropriate sizes.
1) Additionally for width 1000/1200
Shipping brace
For acceleration a > 1g recommended
Enclosures must be secured against tipping over during transportation, assembly and installation. When using a base/plinth system, during transportation (including raising and lowering), ensure that the load is supported on the base/plinth corner pieces at all times, and never on the base/plinth trim.
For installation weights over 15 kg in the door, the shipping brace VX 8618.410 must be used!
If there is the possibility of high pressures developing within the enclosure, the enclosure parts could burst. To counteract all associated dangers, the user must adopt appropriate safety measures.
The design provides for automatic potential equalisation between the rear panel, roof plate and side panel (accessories) and the basic enclosure, as well as between the gland plates and the basic enclosure. For the internal or external mounting of electrically powered Rittal accessories (cooling units, fan-and-filter units etc.) in or on the side panel, rear panel or roof plate, an adequate PE conductor connection is already provided by the mechanical attachment. One assembly component should be marked with a PE conductor symbol to label its function as a PE conductor. An additional PE conductor connection is not required.
Additionally, the enclosure panels are equipped with earthing bolts/eyelets for earthing screws, so that additional earthing connections can be made if required for installation.
All connections must be assembled in accordance with the assembly instructions.
Further information on potential equalisation and the PE conductor connection can be found in the technical documentation "PE conductor connection, current carrying capacity" for the VX25 enclosure system.
Notes on operation
The maintenance plan is recommended for all VX25 baying enclosures.
Maintenance interval
Maintenance must be performed at regular intervals depending on use and ambient conditions, at least once annually and documented accordingly.
Nature and extent of the work to be performed:
When storing the enclosure, ensure that
1) Max. load including enclosure weight
2) Mounting plate in rearmost position: 6000 N
a) IP to DIN EN 60 529 (only in conjunction with fitted side panels)
b) IK to IEC 62 262
c) Type according to UL 50 e (only in conjunction with fitted side panels)
*) 8807.000 – IP 66/Type 4
8458.000 – IP 66/Type 4X

Intended use
These Rittal products serve as both an empty enclosure for low voltage switching device combinations with a maximum voltage rating of 1000 V AC or 1500 V DC, and for measuring and control technology in indoor spaces. Should you have any special requirements, and for outdoor installation, the suitability of the product must be verified by Rittal.
During the development of the Enclosure baying system VX25, as part of the design study, a risk evaluation according to DIN EN ISO 12100 was conducted to evaluate and prevent safety-critical items. Because a few residual risks cannot be precluded, the following notes must be observed.
Danger to life and health in case of non-observance of the safety instructions.
