Rittal Bayed Suite Interlock Bar, Interconnecting Locking Rod
The Rittal Interlock Bar, also supplied as an Interconnecting Rod, extends the locking mechanism of a main enclosure to each adjacent enclosure within a bayed suite, keeping every enclosure in the row secured from a single access point. This bayed suite locking extension is available for panel widths of 24 in, 32 in, and 48 in, so a correctly sized rod can be matched to every adjacent enclosure in the run. Because a correctly sized rod is needed for each adjacent enclosure, the interconnecting rod is selected to match the width of the enclosure it will serve, keeping the extended locking mechanism properly aligned across the entire bayed run. This accessory is intended for bayed suite configurations where centralized locking across several linked enclosures simplifies access control and reduces the number of separate locking points a technician must manage.
Key Features
- Panel Width Range: Available for 24 in, 32 in, and 48 in panel widths, letting integrators match the interlock bar to each adjacent enclosure in a bayed suite.
- Bayed Suite Locking Extension: Extends the locking mechanism from the main enclosure to each adjacent enclosure in a bayed suite for unified, single-point access control.
- Width-Matched Sizing: An interconnecting rod corresponding to the width of the enclosure is required for each adjacent enclosure, so rods should be matched to every unit in the row.
- Multi-Piece Packaging: Supplied as a multi-piece packaging unit, giving integrators enough rods to link several adjacent enclosures from a single order.
- Simplified Access Control: Consolidates locking hardware across an entire bayed run, reducing the number of separate locking points a technician must manage.
- Coordinated Enclosure Accessory: Engineered to work with the main enclosure so locking hardware extends cleanly instead of requiring separate hardware at every adjacent unit.
Technical Specifications
- Panel Width Options: 24 in, 32 in, 48 in.
- Installation: Extends locking from the main enclosure to the adjacent enclosures of a bayed suite; a width-matched interconnecting rod is required for each adjacent enclosure.
