Straightforward cable entry
14 March 2016
The Rittal CP 60/120/180 support arm system features clip-on and flexible plastic covers that enable easy access for operators to cables when the support arm is mounted. Cables can also be easily laid or replaced by simply removing the covers.

The section diameters of the support arms provide plenty of room for pre-assembled cables with connectors (e.g. DVI). Meanwhile, clamping elements can also be installed in the open area of the support sections to stabilise open support sections with a long jib, preventing them from twisting.
Rittal says the CP support arm system can support loads comparable to those for closed support sections; the clip-on plastic cover then neatly conceals the
clamping elements. This simple option is said to offer additional stability and safety.
It can be configured for the three load levels of 60, 120 and 180 kg (based on a jib length of 1m).
