The latest 20 page colour catalogue produced by EDL covers their range of cable support and management systems. These products are now being specified for several major international projects, including the latest developments in offshore floating production platforms. They are also specified for electrical power generation and distribution equipment, together with railways, tunnelling and mining, bridge construction, underground transport systems and a wide diversity of heavy engineering applications.
New options in the Vari-cleat range of cable fixings have been shown in the catalogue for the first time. These include a larger base size which can accommodate three cables in trefoil formation each from 102mm to 118mm outside diameter. In addition, the three largest base sizes are now supplied with seperate clip-in retention straps to facilitate easier cable installation. Bases can also be supplied with Kelvar coating to provide a high degree of corrosion protection as well as increased fire resistance.
Further new products include heavy duty versions of the Vari-cleats which have a higher short circuit withstand rating, and stainless steel trefoil cable straps for use as intermediate surge clips between Vari-cleat mountings. Surge clips and Vari-cleats can also now be supplied complete with low smoke and fume (LSF) liners to provide additional protection for cables.
Other products covered in this catalogue include aluminium trefoil cleats covering cables from 22.3 to 60.3mm diameter. These are supplemented by Eurotech LSF channel cleats, manufactured from flame retardant black plastic material. These offer resistance to corrosive atmospheres, oil and chemical contamination, and are suitable for use within operating temperatures of 10 to +120°C. Cable racks incorporating hardwood cleats are also shown, suitable for cables ranging from 12 to 75mm outside diameter.
Cable hangers and suspension hooks, cable tray support brackets, connecting plates and clips etc., together with cable suspenders, catenary wire and associated accessories are also included.
