SUPPLEMENT FEATURE CABLING & CABLE MANAGEMENT
VERSATILE CABLE ENTRY SOLUTIONS FOR ALL SHAPES AND SIZES
Conta-Clip's comprehensive range of IP66 cable entry systems and a vast selection of sealing elements provide a highly flexible solution for routing cables, conduits and pipes
T
he KDSClick system enables easy and flexible cable management. Users will
no longer have to machine enclosures to suit specific applications, because any setup of cables, wires and conduits can be modified at any time with just a few simple steps. The retrofitting of cables and
maintenance work also requires very little effort. The seals are available with multiple holes, and unused positions can be sealed with blind plugs, always allowing for any future additional cables to be easily inserted.
eight, or ten sealing elements. Unlike designs from other
manufacturers, where the frame that holds the sealing elements has to be opened and then screwed tight again, Conta-Clip has developed a one-piece rigid plastic frame that only needs fitting once. Featuring an injected foam gasket, the frame is screwed onto the enclosure from the outside, and preserves the high protection rating even on painted or rough surfaces. To accommodate the necessary wiring configurations, various inlays can then
LARGE-SCALE CABLE ENTRY For special machine manufacturers and other customers who need a greater number of cable openings and extra flexibility to adapt control cabinets to individual orders, Conta-Clip provides special flange plates. These KDS-FP flange plates are also
screwed onto an enclosure opening, sealing it completely (to IP66) and are large enough for two or three KDSClick modules with space for a total of up to 30 entries. They come with segmented blind
covers that can be easily and cleanly removed without tools to reveal a 40 x 110mm opening which can be further divided into up to ten entry points by snapping inlays from the KDSClick series into place.
ROUND CABLE ENTRY The KDS portfolio was recently expanded by adding the KDS-R series for quick, tool-less assembly in M20 to M63 round enclosure openings. As usual, they can be quickly
inserted with no tools. This new system consists of a cable entry frame with an integrated gasket, a two-piece thread and locking adapter and a two-piece locknut. The standard range of sealing elements
FRAME-BASED CABLE ENTRY SYSTEM The KDS portfolio of multi-cable entry systems for rectangular as well as round enclosure openings ensures safe cable entry with IP66 ingress protection, and reliable strain relief working towards DIN EN 62444. The easy-to-assemble systems are available in various different designs with up to 30 cable openings. The KDSClick system, which is based on a simple modular principle, and is comprised of only three basic components, is available in four sizes for four, six,

be simply inserted in the frame. Once the cables, with or without plugs,
have been pushed through the inlays, the sealing elements (featuring a wave cut split) are fitted around them individually. The portfolio currently already comprises over 100 sealing elements for cable and conduit diameters from 2mm to 35mm, with one, two and four slots for industrial flat ribbon cables, as well as blind plugs. The tapered seals can be easily pressed into the frame/inlay from inside the enclosure, while the design also ensures an IP66 tight fit.
and inlays can be used to achieve a high IP66 ingress protection. Assembly is complete by screwing the
two-piece thread and locking adapter into the cable entry and securing the latter in the opening with the separable locknut.
