Rack accessory Rittal 2413.550 EMV shielding rail, steel, length 550 mm, chrome

Rittal 2413.550 rack accessory is a chromated steel strip designed to provide reliable cable shield contact inside 19-inch enclosures. The strip has a 75 mm² cross section and a length that fits a 550 mm rack width, offering a durable conductive path for electromagnetic shielding.

Advantages

The chromated steel construction ensures corrosion resistance and stable conductivity for shield connections. With a 75 mm² cross section and a form factor matching a 550 mm rack, the strip is easy to mount and integrates with standard rack equipment. Its straightforward design supports consistent contact between cable shields and the rack grounding system.

Suitable for

• Establishing cable shield contact in 19-inch server or network racks
• Use in control cabinets and IT enclosures where EMC grounding is required
• Applications needing a robust conductive strip for grounding and shielding

When it may not be suitable

This chromated steel strip is intended for mechanical and electromagnetic shielding contact and is not a replacement for insulated grounding conductors where insulation or specific current ratings are required. It may not be suitable for installations that demand stainless steel, non-magnetic materials, or different cross-sectional dimensions than 75 mm².

Key specifications

• Material: Chromated steel strip
• Cross section: 75 mm²
• Designed width compatibility: 550 mm rack
• Function: Cable shield contact / EMC strip

How to use

Mount the strip inside the enclosure or rack aligned with the 550 mm mounting width and secure it according to the rack manufacturer’s instructions. Ensure firm mechanical contact between the strip and cable shields or shield termination points to create an effective conductive path to the rack grounding. Verify continuity to the enclosure ground after installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm rack or enclosure width is 550 mm for correct fit
• Check that a 75 mm² cross section meets your shielding and grounding needs
• Determine whether chromated steel is acceptable for your environmental and corrosion requirements

Usage recommendations

For reliable EMC performance, ensure clean metal-to-metal contact and, if necessary, remove paint or coatings at contact points. Use proper fastening hardware and verify grounding continuity periodically.
