General
Material	Sheet steel, galvanised
Scope of delivery	2 mounting rails including fastening material.
Suitable for	Enclosure type: TS IT, TX CableNet, TX Colocation Rack, depth: = 800 mm
Note	One mounting within the disassemblable variant of the TX CableNet is possible by using the insert nuts (M8) for screwing the corner connections of the cabinet frame and, after completing the frame assembly, breaking off the protruding parts of the insert nuts, thus providing a flat mounting surface for the floor mounting.

The floor mounting VX 5502.501 from Rittal is a mounting component made of galvanised steel sheet, specifically designed for integrating floor plate modules of the VX base into enclosure systems of the TS IT, TX CableNet and TX Colocation Rack series. It enables the mounting of VX floor modules in enclosures with an exact depth of 800 mm, serving as an alternative to previous TS floor modules. The mounting rail is supplied in a packaging unit of two pieces and is designed for use in industrial and technical enclosure installations where secure and stable mounting of floor modules is required.

Floor mounting

The floor mounting serves as a fixed mounting base for VX floor plate modules installed in enclosure frames of the TS IT, TX CableNet and TX Colocation Rack series. It is attached to the lower section of the enclosure frame using the included fastening material, allowing the modules to be securely and planar-parallel positioned. The construction from galvanised steel sheet ensures high mechanical stability and corrosion resistance, which is particularly advantageous in industrial environments.

Applications

The floor mounting is primarily intended for use in enclosure installations with a depth of 800 mm, particularly in enclosure types TS IT, TX CableNet and TX Colocation Rack. It is used in installations where mounting of floor plate modules is required, for example for cable routing, installation of cable glands or shielding. Use in disassemblable variants of TX CableNet is also possible, where the insert nuts (M8) are used to fasten the corner connections of the frame. After assembly, the operating tabs of the insert nuts are broken off to create a flat mounting surface for the floor mounting.

Functions and equipment in detail

The delivery includes two mounting rails and the necessary fastening material to mount the rails to the enclosure frame. The rails are made of galvanised steel sheet, ensuring high strength and durability under industrial conditions. Mounting takes place at the lower end sections of the enclosure frame, with the rails installed parallel to the floor surface to enable secure and flat positioning of the VX floor modules.

Technology explained simply

The floor mounting is a mechanical mounting aid that simplifies the integration of VX floor modules into existing enclosure frames. The use of galvanised steel sheet ensures high mechanical load capacity and resistance to corrosion. Mounting is done via designated fastening points on the enclosure frame, using the included screws and nuts. In disassemblable TX CableNet models, the mounting surface is created by breaking off the operating tabs of the insert nuts (M8) after fastening the frame, to provide a flat surface for the rails.

Compatibility and accessories

The floor mounting is compatible with enclosure frames of the TS IT, TX CableNet and TX Colocation Rack series, which have a depth of 800 mm. It is specifically designed for mounting floor plate modules of the VX base and can be used as a replacement for previous TS floor modules. Use in disassemblable TX CableNet models is possible, where insert nuts (M8) are used to fasten the corner connections of the frame. The floor mounting is not intended for other enclosure types or depths.

Mounting and installation

Mounting takes place at the lower end sections of the enclosure frame. The two mounting rails are fastened to the designated mounting points using the included fastening material. In disassemblable TX CableNet models, the operating tabs of the insert nuts (M8) are broken off after fastening the frame to create a flat surface for mounting the rails. The rails are then installed parallel to the floor surface to ensure secure and planar-parallel positioning of the VX floor modules.

Advantages in operation

The floor mounting offers simple and secure mounting of VX floor modules in existing enclosure installations. The use of galvanised steel sheet ensures high mechanical stability and corrosion resistance. Compatibility with various enclosure series and the possibility of mounting in disassemblable TX CableNet models increases flexibility during installation. The delivery with two rails and fastening material simplifies mounting and reduces the effort required for additional components.
