Rittal SV 9342.170 floor sump / base tray, grey, depth 2400 mm

The Rittal SV 9342.170 floor sump / base tray, grey, depth 2400 mm is a dedicated containment tray designed to sit beneath control cabinets, switchgear and other electrical installations. Constructed to collect incidental spills and leaks, this tray provides a stable, level base that helps protect floors and simplify maintenance in industrial and utility rooms. Its 2400 mm depth accommodates larger cabinet footprints and allows flexible placement of electrical enclosures.

Advantages

This base tray is manufactured to fit beneath heavy electrical equipment, offering corrosion-resistant surface protection and a continuous containment area to reduce the risk of liquid spread. The tray’s uniform depth and stable construction facilitate straightforward installation and alignment of cabinets. The grey finish provides a neutral appearance suitable for technical rooms and makes dirt and residues less conspicuous, supporting easier visual inspection and cleaning.

Suitable for

• Placement beneath control cabinets, switchgear and distribution panels
• Containment of incidental oil, coolant or water leaks in electrical and mechanical rooms
• Use as a stable base for modular enclosures in production and maintenance areas
• Floor protection in server rooms, substations and industrial workshops

When it may not be suitable

This floor sump is intended for collection of incidental spills and to provide a base for enclosures; it is not a substitute for engineered spill containment systems for hazardous chemicals or large-volume secondary containment. In environments with aggressive chemicals, high temperatures or where fire-rated containment is required, verify material compatibility and regulatory requirements before use.

Key specifications

• Material surface finish: grey protective coating
• Overall depth: 2400 mm suitable for large cabinet layouts
• Designed as a single-piece base tray for under-cabinet placement
• Intended function: liquid containment and stable support for electrical enclosures

How to use

Position the floor sump on a level, stable substrate where cabinets or equipment will be installed. Align the tray so that cabinet feet or mounting points sit fully within the containment area. After equipment placement, check that any cable entries and conduits are routed without creating gaps that would bypass the tray edge. Periodically inspect the tray for accumulated liquids and remove contents following local disposal guidelines; clean and dry the tray surface before reinstalling equipment if necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the tray depth and internal footprint match the dimensions of the cabinets or equipment to be placed on it
• Verify material compatibility with the types of liquids and chemicals present in your environment
• Assess whether additional spill control measures or regulatory approvals are required for your application

Usage recommendations

Use the tray as part of a broader maintenance and spill-response plan: place absorptive materials or removable collection inserts if frequent minor leaks are expected, and schedule regular inspections to prevent accumulation of liquids that could affect electrical safety or equipment integrity.
