Rittal 8017665 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How are the two holes arranged on the Rittal 8017665 box, side by side or stacked?
Stacked. The hole pattern is 2 rows by 1 column, so the two 22.5 mm openings sit one above the other on the cover. If you need them side by side, this is the wrong orientation for your layout.
2) Can a Rittal PB pushbutton enclosure be used where it gets hit with coolant or washdown spray?
The PB box carries NEMA 12, 13 and 4 ratings, so it is built to keep out dirt, dust, oil and coolant (12/13) and sprayed water (4). That covers machine-tool stations and hose-down areas indoors. It is specified for indoor use, so it is not the pick for outdoor exposure.
3) Does the Rittal 8017665 come with mounting hardware or do I need to order brackets separately?
Wall mounting brackets are supplied with the enclosure, along with captive cover screws that stay in the cover during service. Nothing extra to buy for a standard wall mount. The operators themselves (buttons, switches, pilot lights) are not included.
4) If I only need to house a single 22.5 mm pushbutton instead of two, what can I use instead of the Rittal 8017665?
The Rittal 8017665 PB enclosure is drilled for 2 holes at 22.5 mm diameter in a 2-row by 1-column layout, so it is sized for two operators. For a single device, the Eaton M22-I one-element surface mounting enclosure is also a 22.5 mm non-illuminated station and holds one element. Both accept standard 22.5 mm pushbuttons and selector switches; the difference is element count and the Rittal's carbon steel housing in a powder-coated RAL 7035 finish.
5) What color and finish is the Rittal PB pushbutton box, and will it match our other Rittal panels?
Carbon steel housing and cover, dipcoat primed and powder coated with a textured finish in RAL 7035 light grey. RAL 7035 is Rittal's standard enclosure color, so it matches the usual run of Rittal panels and wall boxes on a plant floor.
6) Steel or stainless for a pushbutton station in a wet or food-contact area?
The Rittal 8017665 is carbon steel with a powder-coated finish, which holds up in general industrial indoor use but is not the choice for corrosive washdown or food-processing areas. For that, a stainless option such as the Eaton 10250T heavy-duty watertight/oiltight stainless steel enclosure is the better fit. Note the Eaton 10250T is a 30.5 mm device enclosure, so your operators have to match.
7) Is the Rittal 8017665 suitable for an outdoor machine station?
No. The PB series box is specified for indoor use. Its NEMA 4 rating covers sprayed water, but outdoor service also calls for an enclosure rated for rain, sleet and ice (NEMA 3R/4X territory), so pick a different housing for exterior mounting.
8) For a washdown or corrosive area, is the Rittal 8017665 the right pushbutton box or should I move to stainless?
The Rittal 8017665 is rated NEMA 12, 13 and 4, which covers dirt, dust, sprayed water, oil and coolants, and its carbon steel body carries a dipcoat primer plus powder-coated textured finish. Where the chemistry or washdown calls for bare corrosion-resistant metal rather than a coated one, the Eaton 10250TN watertight/oiltight station is stainless steel in the 30.5 mm operator size. Choose by operator diameter as well as material, since the Rittal takes 22.5 mm devices.
9) Will an Eaton M22 enclosure take the same devices as the Rittal 8017665?
Both are built around the 22.5 mm operator standard, so 22.5 mm pushbuttons, selector switches and pilot lights are the common denominator. The Eaton M22-I is a one-element non-illuminated surface mounting enclosure, while the Rittal 8017665 PB box provides two 22.5 mm holes in a 2-row by 1-column arrangement and ships with captive cover screws and wall mounting brackets. Confirm device count and depth before swapping one for the other.
10) Do I have to remove the cover screws completely to open the Rittal PB enclosure?
No. The cover screws are captive, meaning they stay with the cover when you back them out. For a technician troubleshooting an e-stop or selector switch over a machine, that means no dropped screws into the equipment below.
