Rittal's new CM compact system enclosure series combines the benefits of its AE compact enclosure with the installation versatility of its award-winning TS 8 enclosure system. With a triple surface finish of phosphating, electrophoretic dipcoat priming and a structured powder coating, the CM offers very good corrosion protection as well as resistance to lubricants, detergents and mechanical stresses. The CM range brings a new enclosure depth of 400mm.Doors are spot-welded, with perforated assembly strips on a 25mm pitch pattern for universal interior installation. The enclosure is compatible with Rittal's TS 8 mounting components and system accessories. Lights, door-operated switches, door stays and customer-supplied parts can be easily mounted using vertical rails on the side panels and horizontal rails at the top and bottom of the enclosure. Information on more than 8,000 Rittal products can be found in the company's new Catalogue 31, which is free on application. Available in hard copy (1,200 pages) or on CD-ROM, the publication provides details on enclosures, enclosure climate control, power distribution systems, IT products and kiosks.
