LED light series
Published: 19 January, 2017
RITTAL reports it is to launch two new versions of its LED system lights, thus completing the range and says its series of specially designed lights will include 600 and 400 lumens of light output (luminous flux), to add to the current 1200- and 900-lumen versions. Rittal says this means that it can now offer lighting solutions to suit all sizes of enclosure, from small housings right up to large systems.
The company says the new lights are designed to enable control and switchgear manufacturers to provide lower light output for smaller enclosures - the 600-lumen version meets the standard requirement for the large TS 8 enclosure while the 400-lumen lights are suited to wall-mounted enclosures, such as the Rittal AE compact enclosure series.

RITTAL, a leading global provider of solutions for industrial enclosures, power distribution, climate control and IT infrastructure, has announced further improvements to its ISV distribution enclosure - part of the Ri4Power range and says it has upgraded the installation kit allowing the ISV modules to be integrated faster and more easily into the TS 8 and SE 8 enclosure systems, and into the AE compact enclosure.
After five years' development work, RITTAL reports it has unveiled its new VX25 large enclosure system at the 2018 Hanover Trade Fair.
RITTAL says we live in a world of rapid change, driven by the growth of ‘smart technology’, automation components are becoming more compact, both for centralised and decentralised applications, while still delivering considerable computing power and sensors and actuators are also getting more ‘intelligent’.
RITTAL reports it is expanding its production capabilities and building an advanced production plant for compact enclosures in Haiger, Germany, with completion scheduled for 2018. The company says the total capital expenditure will amount to 250 million euros, making it the largest single investment in the company’s history and state-of-the-art infrastructure and digitisation will underpin highly-efficient production, logistics and communications processes.
Manufacturing switchgear can be very labour intensive, despite the advances in automation, there is still a huge amount of manual work involved in cutting and machining busbars, support rails and cable ducts. RITTAL AUTOMATION SYSTEMS says it is now offering new and improved machines and tools that will help automate or part-automate these previously time-consuming activities.
