Power extension Rittal DK 7240.330 — 9 Type D AC outlets, 2 m cable, grey

The Rittal DK 7240.330 power extension is a 9-outlet socket strip housed in an aluminium duct, designed for installation in racks and enclosures. It provides nine Type D AC outlets on a grey, 2 m cable unit with 250 V, 16 A rating and integrated over-voltage protection. The product's 658.6 mm width and compact 44 mm depth and height make it suitable for mounting in 19" (482.6 mm) sections or other 25 mm hole-pattern sections.

Advantages

The aluminium duct and variable mounting bracket allow flexible attachment: the bracket can be inserted in four positions so the strip fits 482.6 mm (19") mounting angles, 19" frames, enclosure frames or the rear of wall-mounted distributors. It can also be inserted into any section with a 25 mm hole pattern without additional accessories. Cable routing for the infeed is provided, and when mounted in a 482.6 mm section there is enough space to route the supply cable between the strip and the profile rail without kinking. IEC 320 sockets are arranged at a 45° angle to permit use of angled connectors.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This socket strip is designed for use with Type D outlets and a maximum current of 16 A; it may not be suitable where higher current capacity or different outlet standards are required. The product width and mounting design assume installation in systems that accept 482.6 mm (19") or 25 mm hole-pattern sections, so it may not fit non-standard enclosures or improvised mounting arrangements.

Key specifications

How to use

Mount the strip using the variable angle bracket by inserting it in one of the four available positions to match the intended mounting points (482.6 mm mounting angles, 19" frame, enclosure frame or rear section of a wall-mounted distributor). If installing into a section with a 25 mm hole pattern, the strip can be inserted without additional mounting accessories. Route the infeed cable through the provided cable routing space; when mounting in a 482.6 mm (19") section, run the supply cable between the socket strip and the profile rail to avoid kinks. Plug equipment into the angled IEC 320 outlets to preserve space when using angled connectors.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Install the strip with the bracket position that provides the most secure mechanical support, and route the infeed cable through the allocated space to prevent bending or pinching. Use the 45° IEC 320 sockets for angled connectors to maintain clearance and avoid blocking adjacent outlets.
