Aardingsmateriaal Rittal 2412.216, metalen oppervlak, hoogte 200 mm

Rittal 2412.216 grounding hardware in a metallic finish with a height of 200 mm is a dedicated component for establishing equipotential bonding and protective grounding in electrical enclosures and control cabinets. Constructed from tin-plated copper, the earthing strap is supplied with press-fitted contact rings and offers a combination of electrical conductivity and mechanical flexibility. The design supports robust attachment points inside industrial and commercial panels where reliable grounding connections are required.

Advantages

The tin-plated copper construction ensures low electrical resistance and corrosion protection for long-term performance. Press-fitted contact rings provide secure and reproducible connection points that simplify installation and maintenance. The flexible strap design counteracts current displacement effects at high frequencies, improving shielding and grounding continuity in electrically noisy environments. Its metallic finish and standard 200 mm height make it compatible with common cabinet layouts and mounting arrangements.

How to use

Mount the grounding hardware on an appropriate earthing point inside the cabinet using compatible fasteners and ensure a clean, conductive surface for the connection. Use the press-fitted contact rings to attach cable lugs or bolted connections, tightening to the torque values specified by the panel or terminal manufacturer. Route the strap to minimise mechanical stress and avoid sharp bends that could reduce flexibility or damage the conductor. Verify continuity with a suitable tester after installation to confirm a low-resistance connection to the protective earth.

Recommendations

Inspect contact surfaces for paint, oxidation or contaminants prior to installation and remove any barriers to metal-to-metal contact. Select fasteners and torque settings appropriate for tin-plated copper to avoid over-compression of the contact rings. In electrically noisy environments, use multiple grounding points or ensure short, direct strap routes to improve high-frequency performance.
