What are cubicle modifications
A standard 8MC2 or 8MF system cubicle comprises the following basic elements:
- a frame
- a rear panel
- a flat-panel roof
- a door with espagnolette lock and 3 mm lock insert for double-bit key, and
- possibly side panels (in case of stand-alone installation)
For special requirements the standard system cubicle can be modified by replacing individual elements or by providing cut-outs, e.g.
- with a double-wing door in place of a single door
- with an instrument cover in place of a front door
- with a door in place of a rear panel
- with a roof prepared to accommodate a busbar in place of a flat panel
- with the integration of ventilation slots into a standard door and with a perforated ventilation roof in place of a flat panel
All these options are described as cubicle modifications. The various possible cubicle modifications are explained in more detail in this catalog section.
How are the prices for cubicle modifications calculated
The basic elements are either replaced with alternative elements or else provided with cut-outs (ventilation slots), depending on what the customer has requested. For replacement elements, an additional price is derived from the price difference between the basic and replacement elements. The modification surcharge reflects the additional work incurred to produce the requested cutouts.
How do cubicle modifications affect the delivery time
Irrespective of whether you order doors with ventilation slots, asymmetrically divided doors or a roof to accommodate busbars, cubicle modifications have only minimal influence on the delivery time.
