Hammond Stainless Steel Wireway System: Cable Protection in Corrosive Environments
June 31 2016
This 1487SS modular pull-through wireway system consists of three cross-section sizes: 4 x 4, 6 x 6 and 8 x 8 inches, all with a smooth brushed stainless steel finish. Components are available in standard 12, 24, 36, 48, 60 and 120 inch straight lengths with an extensive range of fittings that enable required configurations to be constructed from standard elements.
The 1487SS system sections are formed from 14 gauge 304 stainless steel and are fitted with 10 gauge flanges at each end. The top of each straight section consists of a hinged cover, secured with easy to operate screw clamps to give access to the cables. The system offers rapid installation, is sealed to NEMA Type 4X and IEC60529 IP66, and is constructed with stainless steel components allowing for effective use in wet, corrosive environments both indoors and outdoors. It is designed to enclose and protect electrical or network wiring from dirt, dust, oil and water, making it ideal for use in factories, warehouses and other locations where such contamination is likely to be present.
The system features smooth interior surfaces to prevent damage to wires during installation and all seams are continuously welded and smooth finished. Oil resistant gaskets are used between the flanges when sections and other fittings are assembled; the comprehensive range of fittings extends to flexible and adjustable fittings, 45 and 90 degree elbows, T fittings, edge and centre hole reducers, fixed and swivel nipples, box connectors, drop and bracket hangers and other system components that enable even the most complex installations to be realized from standard components.
