The article RX 9365003 from Rittal is a short rail connector for the baying set, specifically designed for connecting modular RiLineX boards within an enclosure. It serves as an electrical transition between busbars and enables secure and reliable baying of enclosure modules. The connector is designed for use with E-Cu busbars in dimensions 15 x 5/10 mm, 20 x 5/10 mm, and 30 x 5/10 mm. The width of the connector is 45 mm, enabling compact integration into existing enclosure configurations.

Applications

The baying connector is used in industrial electrical installations where modular enclosure solutions are required. It is suitable for applications where multiple RiLineX modules are arranged in a cabinet to create a flexible and expandable electrical installation. The connector is used in enclosures certified to IEC 61 439-1/-2 and UL 508, ensuring compliance with international safety and quality standards.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The connector consists of an upper part made of galvanized steel sheet, providing high mechanical stability and corrosion resistance. The contact plate is made of E-Cu (electrolytic copper) and tinned to ensure optimal electrical conductivity and contact stability. The maximum rated current load is 780 A, making it suitable for high-performance applications.

Technology Explained Simply

The baying connector transfers electrical current between the busbars of adjacent RiLineX modules. The galvanization of the steel sheet protects against corrosion, while the tinned copper contact plate ensures low contact resistance and high conductivity. The design provides short-circuit withstand capability up to 65 kA, which is critical for safety in industrial installations. Compliance with IEC 61 439-1/-2 and UL 508 standards guarantees adherence to safety and quality requirements.

Compatibility and Accessories

The connector is specifically designed for use with the 3-pole baying set (article number 9360103). This set is required to correctly integrate the connector into the enclosure configuration. Compatibility is provided for busbars in the specified dimensions (15 x 5/10 mm, 20 x 5/10 mm, 30 x 5/10 mm). Use with other busbar dimensions is not intended.

Installation and Mounting

Mounting is done by inserting the connector into the baying set (9360103), which is attached to the busbars. The connector is inserted into the set and secures the electrical connection between the adjacent modules. Installation requires no additional tools or components beyond the baying set. The connection is mechanically stable and electrically reliable.

Operational Advantages

The baying connector provides a compact and reliable solution for connecting RiLineX modules. The high rated current load of 780 A and the tested short-circuit withstand capability up to 65 kA ensure safe operation. The use of galvanized steel sheet and tinned E-Cu ensures long service life and high reliability. Compliance with IEC 61 439-1/-2 and UL 508 standards ensures compatibility with international standards and facilitates approval in various markets.
