Electrical enclosure light Rittal 2500.311, LED, 100–230 V, 50/60 Hz, 13 W, black, screw mount

Rittal 2500.311 is an LED light designed specifically for electrical enclosures and control cabinets. Operating on 100–230 V AC at 50/60 Hz with a rated power of 13 W, the compact black luminaire provides focused illumination along a 437 mm length and installs with screw mounting for secure attachment inside cabinets. The design delivers even light distribution for task areas and tight corners inside enclosures where reliable, low‑maintenance lighting is required.

Advantages

The LED technology offers high luminous efficiency and low power consumption compared with traditional fluorescent fittings, reducing heat generation inside cabinets. Its compact profile and screw-mount design ensure stable installation and easy alignment. Low maintenance and long service life reduce the need for frequent replacements, and its wide input voltage range allows use in varied supply environments.

Suitable for

• Illumination of electrical cabinets, control panels and switchgear enclosures
• Work areas inside server racks, telecommunication cabinets and industrial control panels
• Inspection and maintenance lighting for confined spaces where even light distribution is required

When it may not be suitable

This light is intended primarily for internal cabinet use and is not designed as a primary room or outdoor luminaire. It may not be suitable for installations that require specific ingress protection ratings or explosion-proof certification unless those requirements are confirmed separately. For large open enclosures where very high lumen output or broad area lighting is required, multiple fixtures or alternative lighting solutions may be preferable.

Key specifications

• Power consumption: 13 W
• Input voltage: 100–230 V AC, 50/60 Hz
• Color: Black housing
• Mounting method: Screw mount for cabinet interior
• Length: 437 mm
• Lighting technology: LED

How to use

Mount the LED light inside the cabinet using the supplied screw points or appropriate fasteners, ensuring secure attachment to the cabinet frame or interior panel. Connect the unit to the AC supply within the stated voltage range and observe correct polarity if applicable. Position the light to illuminate work areas and corners, avoiding blockage from wiring or components that could cast shadows. Follow local electrical regulations and de-energize equipment before installation or wiring.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the cabinet interior dimensions and mounting hole locations to ensure compatibility with the 437 mm length and screw-mount arrangement
• Verify supply voltage and frequency to match 100–230 V AC, 50/60 Hz
• Check whether additional ingress protection, certifications or special environmental ratings are required for your installation

Usage recommendations

For optimal cabinet illumination, place the light along the top or side interior profile aimed toward the main work area; consider installing more than one unit for larger cabinets or deep racks to ensure even coverage. Regular visual checks for secure mounting and intact wiring will help maintain safe operation.
