Rittal 1338000 AX Compact Control Cabinet, Carbon Steel, IP66/NEMA 12

The Rittal AX compact control cabinet is a carbon steel enclosure built around Rittal's patented 25 mm system grid, the same modular layout used on the larger VX25 platform, so accessories and rail-mounted components install without drilling. The housing and door are 1.5 mm carbon steel paired with a 2.5 mm mounting plate sized 330 mm x 575 mm, finished in RAL 7035. The enclosure carries IP66 protection (IEC 60529 and EN 60529) and a NEMA 1, 3R, 4, 12 rating (UL 50E Type 1, 3R, 4, 12), making it well suited to demanding indoor and outdoor electrical installations.
