Rittal AX 1008000 is a stainless steel wall-mounted enclosure for electrical and control equipment.

Rittal AX 1008000 is a 380 × 600 × 210 mm stainless steel compact enclosure with a 330 × 575 mm mounting plate. Its tall, relatively narrow format provides extended vertical mounting space while limiting the enclosure width to 380 mm. This configuration is particularly relevant for layouts arranged vertically, such as multiple DIN-rail levels, terminal sections and control components, where additional height is more useful than a wider enclosure footprint.

AX Stainless Steel Model Comparison
| Model | Enclosure Size (W × H × D) | Mounting Plate (W × H) | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| AX 1006000 | 380 × 380 × 210 mm | 330 × 355 mm | More horizontal mounting space is also required |
| AX 1007000 | 500 × 500 × 210 mm | 450 × 475 mm | Layouts requiring more mounting width as well as height |
| AX 1008000 | 380 × 600 × 210 mm | 330 × 575 mm | Vertically arranged layouts requiring more mounting height without increasing width beyond 380 mm |
AX 1008000 prioritises mounting height rather than enclosure width. Compared with AX 1006000, it retains the same 380 mm enclosure width and 210 mm depth while increasing the height from 380 mm to 600 mm. Compared with the 500 × 500 mm AX 1007000, AX 1008000 provides a narrower but taller mounting format. The choice therefore depends on whether the component layout benefits more from horizontal distribution or additional vertical mounting levels.
Before Ordering AX 1008000
1. Check whether the layout benefits from additional height
AX 1008000 provides a 330 × 575 mm mounting plate. The additional height is most useful when components can be organised vertically. If the layout requires several large components side by side, a wider AX configuration may provide a more practical mounting area.
2. Plan DIN rails and terminal sections vertically
The 575 mm mounting-plate height provides more room for multiple horizontal DIN-rail or terminal levels. Plan the spacing between these sections together with wiring ducts and service clearances rather than using the additional height only to increase component density.
3. Check installation access at the top and bottom
A 600 mm-high enclosure requires sufficient installation and service space around the enclosure. Consider cable entry, conductor routing and access to components positioned near the upper and lower ends of the mounting plate when determining the installation height.
4. Do not use additional height to solve a depth problem
AX 1008000 remains 210 mm deep. Deep components, connectors, wiring ducts and door-mounted equipment therefore require the same depth and clearance checks as other 210 mm-deep AX configurations.
5. Recheck height-dependent accessories
Accessories carried over from 380 mm or 500 mm-high AX models should not automatically be assumed compatible. Rails, chassis and other dimension-dependent components must be checked against the 380 mm width, 600 mm height and 210 mm depth of AX 1008000.
Accessories for AX 1008000
Accessory selection for AX 1008000 requires particular attention to its 600 mm enclosure height. Height-dependent installation components should be verified for the 600 mm configuration, while width-dependent accessories must match the 380 mm enclosure width and depth-dependent components the 210 mm depth. Accessories used with shorter AX models should not be transferred solely because they belong to the same AX series.

FAQ
Q1: Is AX 1008000 wider than AX 1006000?
A: No. Both enclosures are 380 mm wide and 210 mm deep. AX 1008000 increases the height to 600 mm and uses a 330 × 575 mm mounting plate, providing substantially more vertical mounting space.
Q2: When should I choose AX 1008000 instead of AX 1007000?
A: Choose based on the direction in which additional mounting space is required. AX 1008000 provides a taller, narrower 380 × 600 mm enclosure format, while AX 1007000 uses a wider 500 × 500 mm format. AX 1008000 is therefore more suitable when the layout can be organised vertically and horizontal installation width is limited.
Q3: Is the full 380 × 600 mm area available for mounting components?
A: No. Components installed on the mounting plate should be planned against its 330 × 575 mm dimensions. Additional space should also be reserved for wiring ducts, cable routing, terminals and required equipment clearances.
Q4: Does the 600 mm enclosure height provide additional component depth?
A: No. AX 1008000 remains 210 mm deep. The larger dimension is height, so components limited by installed depth still require a separate clearance check.
