Overview

The nVent MCU2065R5 Top Frame Extension (SKU: MCU2065R5) is a steel enclosure accessory designed to expand vertical space in nVent MCU floor-standing enclosures measuring 200mm (H) x 600mm (W) x 500mm (D). Constructed from 1.75mm steel frame and 1.35mm steel panels, this extension provides a durable, corrosion-resistant solution with RAL 7035 structured powder coating. It supports IP41 protection against solid objects >1mm and vertically falling water droplets, making it suitable for industrial environments. The extension includes front and rear panels with mounting accessories (roof plate sold separately) and features a universal hole pattern for flexible accessory mounting. It enhances cable management by segregating power and data cabling, reducing electromagnetic interference and improving system reliability. Ideal for applications requiring additional top-level cabling, power distribution, or control device mounting in manufacturing, automation, telecommunications, and power distribution sectors.
  • Description: For cable entry and routing or for installation of a power distribution system. Fixed to the top of the enclosure by four M12 screws. Available in 200 mm and 300 mm heights. The enclosure roof plate CCR can be used to close the top. For lifti
  • Side panels: MCUP supplied as an accessory.
  • Material: Frame in 1.75 mm steel plate, panels in 1.35 mm steel plate.
  • Finish: RAL 7035 structured powder coating.
  • Protection: Complies with IP55.
  • Pack quantity: 1 piece with front and back panels including mounting accessories (without roof plate).
  • Top extension frame for mild steel combinable floor standing enclosures
  • The frame creates additional space at the top of the enclosure with integrated hole patterns and allows segregation if required
  • The frame can be segregated from the enclosure which creates extra space for hazardous components, for example main busbars
  • Standard accessories can be mounted within the frame thanks to the universal hole pattern allowing accessories to be easily mounted, e.g. busbar supports

How to Assemble the MCU2065R5 Unit

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the physical assembly and fixation of the MCU unit, including gasket installation and securing various components with specified torque values.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

T30 Torx wrench, T25 Torx wrench, SW10 wrench, SW13 wrench, Torque wrench

Supplies needed:

M12x20 screws, M12 nuts, M8 nuts, M8 washers, M8x16 screws, M6x12 screws, 4.5x8 screws, M5x10 screws, M6 nuts, Gasket, CCI06 brackets (for bayed variant, ordered separately), CNT05 fixation kit (for alternative fixation, ordered separately)

  1. Install Gasket

    Carefully position and fix the gasket outside the corner holes of the MCU unit. Ensure it is properly seated to provide a seal, as this is crucial for the unit's integrity.

  2. Assemble Primary Structural Components

    Begin by securing the primary structural components using the M12x20 screws (A) and M12 nuts (B). Tighten these fasteners to a torque of 10-15Nm using a T30 Torx wrench and a torque wrench. Next, use the M8 nuts (C) and M8 washers (D) to connect further structural elements, applying a torque of 8-10Nm with an SW13 wrench. Finally, install the M8x16 screws (E) and tighten them to 15-20Nm to complete the main structural assembly.

  3. Attach Secondary Components and Panels

    Attach any secondary components or panels using the M5x10 screws (H), M6x12 screws (F), and M6 nuts (J). For these fasteners, apply a torque of 4-5Nm using a T25 Torx wrench and an SW10 wrench with a torque wrench. Also, use the 4.5x8 screws (G) to secure other panels or covers as indicated in the diagram. Note that the M5x10 screws (H) are specifically for MCU units 1000mm wide or larger.
