Cable management system now includes screwless version
Conta-Clip has expanded its KES cable management range to include the KES-E version for screwless mounting. The cable entry plates enable quick and safe feed-in of non-assembled cables and conduits into control cabinets and machine enclosures, without the need for cable glands.
The KES-E cable entry plate has an all-round profile gasket and can be installed without tools. The plate is simply pressed into a 36 x 112mm standard opening in a cabinet or housing wall. The profile gasket’s elastic inner sealing lip tightly curves around the opening inside the housing, ensuring a tight and vibration-proof hold.
The initial KES-E launch comprises nine variants in A and B versions for cables and pneumatic hoses with diameters from 1.0 to 16mm. The cable entry plates are suitable for wall thicknesses from 1.5 to 2.5mm (A) or 2.5 to 4.0mm (B).
Depending on the design, these plates can increase packing densities and hold up to 48 cables or conduits. The cable entry system provides IP64 protection against dust and splashing water ingress. Its smooth surfaces, rounded corners, and EcoLab-certified material resistance to industrial cleaning agents ensure that the plates can be used in food or pharmaceutical industries. They are suitable for ambient temperatures from -40 to +90°C.
