Electrical enclosure light Rittal 2500.314, LED, 100–230 V, 50/60 Hz, 13 W, black, screw mounting

Rittal 2500.314 is an LED light for electrical enclosures and control cabinets, designed to provide reliable interior illumination for inspection, maintenance and component identification. The luminaire runs from a wide AC voltage range of 100–230 V at 50/60 Hz and consumes up to 13 W. Its black housing and screw-mount design allow fixed installation inside cabinets where targeted, shadow-reducing lighting is required.

Advantages

The LED system offers improved light distribution to reach the corners of an enclosure while keeping energy consumption low. With a broad input voltage range the unit is compatible with standard industrial and building supplies. The compact, screw-mounted form factor simplifies installation and secures the fixture against vibration. The low-wattage LED source reduces heat generation compared with conventional lamps and requires minimal maintenance.

Suitable for

• Illuminating control panels and switchgear interiors
• Maintenance and inspection tasks inside electrical cabinets
• Cabinets in industrial, commercial or utility environments
• Areas where fixed, reliable, low-heat lighting is required

When it may not be suitable

The unit is intended for interior cabinet lighting and is not a substitute for general room lighting; it provides targeted illumination rather than wide-area coverage. It is a screw-mounted fixture and therefore not ideal where tool-free or rapid removal mounting is required. The specification does not indicate integrated emergency backup or battery operation, so it is not suitable where lights must remain on during mains failure unless an external UPS is provided.

Key specifications

• Power consumption: 13 W (maximum)
• Input voltage: 100–230 V AC
• Frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Light source type: LED
• Housing colour: black
• Mounting method: screw mounting for fixed installation

How to use

Install the light inside the enclosure using the supplied screw mounting points or appropriate hardware compatible with the cabinet material. Connect the supply to the AC input, observing correct wiring practice, grounding and local electrical codes. Position the fixture to illuminate control elements and wiring runs while avoiding obstruction of moving parts. After installation, verify correct operation at both 50 Hz and 60 Hz supplies if relevant and inspect for secure fastening and cable strain relief.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the cabinet has an appropriate mounting surface and space for a screw-mounted fixture
• Verify required input voltage range is within 100–230 V AC and compatibility with local supply frequency
• Check if emergency lighting or UPS backup is needed for the application
• Ensure ingress protection and environmental conditions inside the cabinet are suitable for the luminaire

Usage recommendations

For consistent illumination, mount the Rittal 2500.314 along the length of the cabinet or near frequently accessed components; combine multiple fixtures for longer cabinets. Use correct cable glands and strain relief when routing power into the enclosure and follow manufacturer and local safety regulations during installation and maintenance.
