January 23, 2021 – Rittal is replacing its previous KS series with new AX glass fiber, UV-resistant enclosures, which promise panelbuilders “the greatest possible simplification, speed and design freedom, while at the same time fulfilling every precondition for maximum safety and robustness”.

The enclosures are suitable for outdoor use; an integrated rain protection strip on the upper and lower edges of the door protects the gasket against dust and rainwater. The enclosure is also UL 508A approved and has UL94 fire class V-0.

Numerous mounting bosses inside the housing enable accessories (e.g. punched sections, rails) to be quickly and directly screw-fastened to any enclosure interior and to the rear panel. Door-operated switches and door stays can also be directly attached to the mounting bosses.
