Troubleshooting

Rails do not align with cabinet holes

Verify that you are using a Rittal cabinet with 400mm width and depth, and that it is designed to accept 18x39mm mounting rails. Ensure you are using the correct mounting hardware for your specific cabinet model.

Difficulty securing components to the rail

Ensure that the components you are mounting are compatible with the 18x39mm profile. Use appropriate T-nuts or screws designed for perforated mounting rails. Do not overtighten, which could damage the rail or component.

Cable clamps do not attach securely

Confirm that you are using Rittal-compatible cable clamps designed for this rail system. Ensure the mounting slots on the rail are clear of debris and that the clamp is correctly inserted before tightening.
