Rittal 8606500 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Rittal TS 8 baying enclosure come in?
Five sizes, all given width by height: 600 x 2000 mm, 800 x 1800 mm, 800 x 2000 mm, 1000 x 2000 mm and 1200 x 2000 mm. Part numbers run 8606500, 8886500, 8806500, 8006500 and 8206500 in that order. Only the 800 mm width offers the shorter 1800 mm height, so if you are matching an existing 1800 mm lineup, that is the one frame that lines up.
2) Can I bay these Rittal TS 8 enclosures together in a row without leaving gaps?
Yes, that is what the frame is built for. The TS 8 uses a symmetrical width-and-depth profile, so enclosures can be bayed on all sides, not just side to side, and the triple-machined surface gives a precise mating fit between frames. Integrated automatic potential equalization ties the panels together so grounding continuity carries across the bayed lineup without adding bonding jumpers panel to panel.
3) Is the Rittal TS 8 enclosure rated for outdoor use?
No. The TS 8 baying enclosure is an indoor enclosure: IP 55 to EN 60529 and IEC 60529, NEMA 1, 12, and UL 50E Type 1, 12. Type 12 covers dust, falling dirt and dripping non-corrosive liquids, but nothing in that list covers rain, sleet or outdoor ice. For an outdoor location you need a 3R or 4X enclosure instead, such as the ABB Q-Line NEMA 3R 225A enclosure or, for washdown and corrosive areas, the Square D EM3570ENC NEMA 4X meter enclosure.
4) Can the door on the Rittal TS 8 enclosure be hinged the other way?
The door catch is right-hand as supplied and can be swapped to the left in the field, so you can set the swing to suit the aisle or the adjacent bay. The door is secured by a 3 mm double-bit lock, the standard industrial insert, which matters if you are standardizing keys across a room of enclosures.
5) I only need to house a single meter, not a full lineup — is the Rittal TS 8 overkill?
The TS 8 is a baying system enclosure sized from 600 x 2000 mm up to 1200 x 2000 mm, built as a floor-standing frame that bays to adjacent enclosures and ships with rear panel, roof plate, mounting plate, TS punched rails and eyebolts. For a single metering device, the Square D EM3570ENC is an enclosure made specifically for PowerLogic EM357x meters, and the ABB Q-Line TQD225R is a 225A enclosure for a single device. Those are purpose-sized housings; the TS 8 is the choice when you need a mounting plate and rail interior you lay out yourself, or when the enclosure has to line up in a row.
6) How does the Rittal TS 8 differ from the ABB CR series enclosure housing?
The ABB CR-104PEG11 is a CR series industrial electrical enclosure housing. The Rittal TS 8 is a carbon steel baying system enclosure with a symmetrical width-and-depth profile so units can be bayed on all sides, integrated automatic potential equalization across the enclosure panels, a 3 mm double-bit lock with a door catch that swaps from right to left hand, an IK09 impact rating and a RAL 7035 finish. If the job is a multi-bay floor lineup with grounding continuity carried between frames, that is the TS 8's specific design intent.
7) How tough is the Rittal TS 8 enclosure in a plant aisle where it might get hit?
It carries an IK09 impact rating, which is the upper end of the IEC impact scale and well above what a typical office-grade enclosure claims. The body is carbon steel with a triple-machined surface finish, finished in RAL 7035 light grey, the usual control panel colour, so it matches most existing industrial lineups.
