£297.40
The Rittal VX IT 5301.246 is a durable and practical vertically divided side panel designed specifically for Rittal VX IT enclosure and server rack systems. Its two-part construction provides convenient access to installed components while creating a secure side closure for professional data centre, server room, networking and IT infrastructure applications.
Designed for straightforward handling, the VX IT 5301.246 uses quick-release fasteners for convenient closing and internal locking elements to improve access security. Individual side sections can be completely removed without tools, providing excellent access to installed equipment, cabling and infrastructure during installation, maintenance and system upgrades.
Manufactured from durable sheet steel with a powder-coated RAL 7035 finish, the VX IT 5301.246 is designed for enclosures measuring 2000 mm high and 800 mm deep. The completed side panel provides an IP20 protection rating to IEC 60529 and is supplied with the components required for installation on compatible VX IT enclosures.
Vertically divided side panels provide an effective solution for IT enclosures where regular access to servers, network equipment, power distribution, cabling and other installed components may be required. By dividing the side closure into separate sections, the Rittal VX IT 5301.246 allows individual sections to be handled and removed more easily than a conventional full-size side panel.
The internal locking arrangement also improves physical access security because opening the side sections requires access through the enclosure doors. Combined with tool-free removal and quick-release fasteners, this makes the VX IT 5301.246 particularly suitable for professional IT infrastructure where convenient maintenance access and controlled enclosure security are important.
