Product usage
Sealing system
- Fully mechanical sealing system for reduced installation and re-entry time.
The top shell, sealed with a gasket, can be easily installed and removed without special tools or torque control. - Cable sealing devices based on a mechanical compression system: this allows to re-use all
components for future upgrades or re-access to the closure. (No tape, glue, heat-shrink tubes, or cable jacket preparation is needed).
The mechanical sealing system perfectly fits cables blowing technology.
Grounding
Standard grounding assures electrical continuity between all cable ports (an external grounding plug is also available).
Splice management
Four plastic splice trays allows to store and identify up to 48 Heat-Shrink splices. Plastic combs for buffer tubes and pig-tails retention are moulded in each tray.
Cabling clamping
1 Standard port per side, each allowing up to 12 cables.
3 points cable clamps for extremely high cable retention, or simplified 1 point anchoring systems for cables and tubes are available.
