FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this shielding rail?
The primary purpose is to provide a mounting point for EMC shielding brackets and offer cable strain relief, thereby enhancing electromagnetic compatibility and cable management within technical enclosures.
What cabinet width is this rail designed for?
This rail is specifically designed for 600mm wide Rittal technical enclosures.
Is the surface treatment resistant to corrosion?
Yes, the rail features a chrome-free passivated surface treatment that provides good resistance to corrosion.
Can this rail be used in any type of enclosure?
While it offers general mounting and strain relief, its specific dimensions and design for EMC shield bracket mounting make it most suitable for Rittal 600mm wide enclosures where these features are required.
What material is the rail made from?
The rail is constructed from die-cast aluminum.
How is cable strain relief achieved with this rail?
The rail incorporates integrated features designed to secure cables, preventing them from pulling on connectors and reducing stress on the cable itself. Specific cable management accessories may be used in conjunction with the rail.
Troubleshooting
Rail does not fit 600mm cabinet
Verify that the cabinet is indeed 600mm wide and that the rail is correctly oriented for installation. Ensure no obstructions are present in the mounting area.
Poor EMC shielding performance
Confirm that the rail is properly grounded to the cabinet chassis. Ensure all shielded cables are correctly terminated and making good contact with the rail via appropriate brackets or clamps. Check for any damage to the rail's surface.
Cables are not securely held by strain relief
Ensure that the appropriate cable clamps or ties are used with the strain relief feature. Verify that the cable diameter is suitable for the chosen clamping method. Check that the rail itself is securely mounted.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Rittal SZ 2388.650 is designed for easy installation within Rittal 600mm wide enclosures. It typically mounts to the vertical frame members of the cabinet. Ensure the cabinet is de-energized and properly grounded before installation. Use appropriate screws and tools to secure the rail firmly. It is designed to work in conjunction with EMC shield brackets, which should be mounted to this rail.
Compatibility: This rail is specifically designed for 600mm wide Rittal cabinets. While it is a general mounting accessory, its primary purpose is for EMC shielding bracket mounting and cable strain relief. Verify that your specific enclosure model is compatible with a 600mm width rail and that any associated EMC shield brackets are also Rittal compatible.
Care: The chrome-free passivated surface offers good corrosion resistance. Clean the rail with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the surface treatment. Regularly check that the rail and any attached cables remain securely fastened.
