“DLP trunking facilitates circuit separation and identification, easy cable traffic, facilities for layout extension and modifications, maximum safety and speed of installation,” says Luk Ivens, general manager, Legrand Southern Africa. “DLP trunking is available with black, grey and white flexible and rigid covers that retain colour quality, maintain original shape and mechanical properties, also resisting the effects of UV. The DLP range also encompasses an antimicrobial system for use in sterile environments, including hospitals and laboratories.”
Features of this system include variable internal and external angles, rounded corners suitable for Cat 6 optical fibre cable distribution and a range of fully insulated base profiles for various compartment configurations. Variable angles mean, even if there is a corner angle that is not exactly 90 degrees, there is still a perfect fit.
The PVC direct clipping assembly enables quick connections for normal and dedicated power, low voltage applications, telephone systems, computers and dedicated sockets. An important benefit is that all power and data is distributed in one system. Another key feature for local installations is the combination of Legrand’s Arteor switches and sockets with this versatile trunking system, which has been adapted especially for the South African market.
Snap-on partition covers are removable for effortless installation of extra sockets and changes can easily be made to plug configurations, without damaging paint or wallpaper. A removable protection film prevents damage to the body and covers during construction.
This direct clipping assembly facility requires no screws – the specially designed Soluclip mounting accessory ensures reliable, tamper-free fixing. Knock-outs in the partitions have been designed to feed cable effortlessly, as required, in between compartments.
Sockets for DLP snap-on trunking have been specially designed to meet the new requirements for electrical trunking systems for installation on walls or on the ceiling.
The installation principle is simple – sockets are snapped directly into the trunking, while the Arteor mechanism is snapped on and fixed with Soluclips. The covers are then installed and the finishing piece is disengaged and rotated by 180°. To complete the installation, a finishing piece is snapped on. Knock out slots ensure easy mounting – no supports or mounting plates are required.
This DLP trunking, with an IP40 index protection rating and an IK 07 protection classification against mechanical shocks, is available in 2 m lengths, with a cover width of 45 mm.
The DLP 3D range, which has been designed for floor to ceiling installation, ensures freedom for the efficient distribution of cables at ceiling level.
