Now, a smart new enclosure accessory
from Rittal can provide far greater
scope for the interior configuration of
compact enclosures.
The planning and configuration of
interior installations within compact
enclosures can be both time consuming
and complicated.
It can also lead to actions which
compromise the integrity of the
enclosure and add to the cost of
installation.
Additional holes often have to be
drilled in areas such as the side panels
to fasten components outside of the
mounting plate. This not only lowers
the enclosure’s protection category, it
is also adds significantly to the settingup costs.
The limited available installation space
inside the enclosure can also cause

problems around the best use of the
existing mounting surfaces.
In response, Rittal has developed
an interior installation rail. The
rail can be easily mounted to the
side, oor or roof areas of the E
compact enclosure, without any need
for additional drilling through the
enclosure panels.
This neat solution saves time and
preserves the enclosure’s protection
category. It can be
placed wherever it is
needed in the enclosure
and is easily fi ed with

as punched sections, enclosure
lights, the afore-mentioned dooroperated switches, door stays, cable
conduit holders and a range of other
components. Use of the rail can easily
double the available mounting surface
inside an E compact enclosure.
And because it has also been designed
to use the accessories for the triedand-tested modular TS enclosure
system, there is no longer any need to
keep a duplicate stock of accessories.
The rail has two rows
of system punchings
