Rittal AX 1017000 stainless steel enclosure, 800 × 1200 × 300 mm, with 745 × 1175 mm mounting plate. View specifications, accessories and availability.

Rittal AX 1017000 is an 800 × 1200 × 300 mm stainless steel enclosure with a 745 × 1175 mm mounting plate. Its tall single-door format provides extensive vertical installation space without increasing the enclosure width beyond 800 mm. This configuration is suited to control layouts where power, control, terminal and cable-distribution sections need to be arranged in multiple vertical zones while retaining one continuous mounting plate.

AX Stainless Steel Model Comparison
| Model | Enclosure Size (W × H × D) | Mounting Plate (W × H) | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| AX 1016000 | 800 × 1000 × 300 mm | 745 × 975 mm | Use when the equipment can be divided into practical functional zones without extending the layout to 1200 mm height |
| AX 1017000 | 800 × 1200 × 300 mm | 745 × 1175 mm | Use when additional vertical zoning solves the layout while 745 mm of mounting width remains sufficient |
| AX 1019000 | 1000 × 1200 × 300 mm | 945 × 1175 mm | Consider when the 1200 mm height is appropriate but 745 mm mounting width still forces major equipment groups or wiring routes too close together |
AX 1017000 makes sense when the panel already works within a 745 mm mounting width, but the 975 mm mounting height of AX 1016000 would force terminal sections, cable distribution or additional equipment levels into the same working zones. Moving to AX 1017000 adds 200 mm of mounting height without increasing enclosure width, allowing the designer to extend the layout vertically while retaining an 800 mm-wide cabinet. However, if the 745 mm width itself is already causing long cross-panel cable routes, congested side-by-side equipment groups or poor access between power and control sections, adding height will not correct that problem. In that case, a wider 1200 mm-high configuration such as AX 1019000 should be evaluated instead.
Before Ordering AX 1017000
1. Check whether the problem is height or width before increasing cabinet size
Lay out the major equipment groups against the 745 × 1175 mm mounting plate. If the 745 mm width allows practical separation between power, control and terminal sections, the taller format can provide useful additional vertical capacity. If the layout is already congested horizontally, the extra 200 mm of height may simply make cable routes longer without solving the underlying problem.
2. Decide what belongs in the upper and lower zones
A 1175 mm-high mounting plate should not be treated as one continuous area to fill. Define which functions belong in the upper, central and lower zones according to cable entry, terminal location, heat-producing equipment and maintenance frequency.
3. Check cross-panel wiring before finalising the zones
Vertical expansion works best when related equipment can remain within the same general width. If conductors repeatedly need to travel from one side of the enclosure to the other between functional sections, the layout may be signalling that additional width—not height—is required.
4. Position service-intensive devices deliberately
With a 1200 mm-high enclosure, some equipment can end up well above or below the most convenient working area after wall installation. Devices requiring adjustment, fuse replacement, testing or frequent terminal access should be positioned with the final mounting height in mind.
5. Account for the 3-point locking system
AX 1017000 uses a 3-point locking system with one 3 mm double-bit lock, rather than the two-cam-lock arrangement used on AX 1016000. Replacement locking components, handles and door accessories should therefore be checked against the actual 1017000 locking configuration.

FAQ
Q1: When should I choose AX 1017000 instead of AX 1016000?
A: Choose AX 1017000 when the 745 mm mounting width already works for the panel layout, but the 975 mm mounting height of AX 1016000 would leave insufficient room for functional separation, terminal sections or cable distribution. AX 1017000 retains the same mounting width and increases the mounting plate height to 1175 mm.
Q2: When should I consider a wider enclosure instead of AX 1017000?
A: Consider a wider configuration when the main constraint is horizontal rather than vertical—for example, when major equipment groups must be compressed side by side or cross-panel wiring becomes excessive. Adding enclosure height does not correct insufficient mounting width.
Q3: Does AX 1017000 use the same locking arrangement as AX 1016000?
A: No. AX 1016000 uses two cam locks, while AX 1017000 uses a 3-point locking system with one lock. Both use a 3 mm double-bit insert.
Q4: Where can I buy AX 1017000?
A: Please contact SuwiAuto to purchase Rittal AX 1017000 / 1017.000. We can check availability, provide a quotation and help confirm compatible accessories for your order.
