— Flexible non-metallic conduit systems Introduction

Adaptaflex have more than 20 different types of non-metallic conduit systems, all providing different technical properties for your cable management applications.

Advantages of non-metallic: • No corrosion • Wide variety of fittings - much larger solution choice

The popular and easy-to-fit Adaptalok system delivers a range of conduits and fittings, specifically designed to maintain system integrity. Fitting types are available in straight, 90°, 45°, with metric, PG, PF, & NPT threads. We are proud of our best-in-class Adaptalok ATS™ fitting, a unique and innovative solution in flexible conduit systems.

• Quicker to install (cut & assemble fittings) • Lighter in weight compared with metallics • Better fatigue life • No memory in case of impact (return to shape) Most of our conduit systems have industry recognised approvals including British Kitemark, CE Approval, UL 1696, NF, LUL and DIN amongst others.

FLEXIBLE NON-METALLIC CONDUIT SYSTEMS - INTRODUCTION TO ADAPTALOK ATS™

7

— Flexible non-metallic conduit systems Introduction to Adaptalok ATS™ Adaptalok ATS™ represents a unique and innovative solution in flexible conduit systems. Until now, manufacturers have produced fittings and seals separately, and assembled them together, or had the customer assemble them. This increases assembly time and introduces the possibility for errors.

Adaptalok ATS™ uses a sophisticated moulding process to mould an internal conduit seal and a face seal washer. This makes installation times very fast, and extremely reliable, because the seals cannot be left out. The conduit system also benefits from the highest IP rating possible.

Additional key features: • Nylon 66 body • Lighter in weight • Quicker to install (cut & assemble fittings) • Wide variety of fittings - much larger solution choice • Better fatigue life • Return to shape

Internal elastomer conduit seal Guaranteed fit, cannot be lost or fitted incorrectly. No assembly & protects cables.

High visibility elastomer 3 visible confirmation points.

Integral face seal washer Guaranteed fit, cannot be lost or fitted incorrectly. No assembly.

Visual fitting guides – Highly visible elastomer markings on lugs, aids correct fitment.

Conduit data – Conduit size clearly indicated on fitting.

Thread data – Thread size clearly indicated on fitting thread

Proven clip design – Pitch independent, ensures secure fitment to coarse & fine pitch conduits.

MARKETS

11

— Markets Machine building OEMs and factory automation

Overview This market is driven by the needs to meet the best in lean manufacturing. To achieve this every piece of equipment in this sector is pushed for greater efficiency by working more intensely and faster. As a result any conduit installed in these applications will need to provide excellent mechanical strength, flexibility and abrasion resistance, in order to supply the best possible solution to provide protection along the entire length of all the moving parts. In this hardworking environment of both dynamic and static applications, it is essential that any cable management products continue to deliver performance in areas where resistance to oils and chemicals is paramount. Any downtime in manufacturing can be very costly so products that can offer high ingress protection are fundamental - Adaptaflex can offer a wide range of solutions to meet all of these needs.

Typical applications: • Metal cutting and fabrication • Milling machines

• Hoists • Cranes • Lifts • Escalators

Standards, approvals and certifications Adaptaflex products are approved by a range of recognised industry standards including: • BSI Kitemark to IEC61386 • CE marked to the Low Voltage Directive • Fully compliant to BS7671 Wiring Regulations code of practice • UL/UR • CSA

— Markets Marine industry

Overview Safety and reliability are vital considerations within one of the harshest operational environments to be found. Products specified and installed within this sector have to face the particularly damaging effects from the wind, wave and salt spray conditions in exposed areas. Whilst this demands for the most robust of products, it also calls for solutions where vibration and temperature extremes add to the challenge. Adaptaflex offer a broad range of solutions to suit this sector, with system properties that include resistance to abrasion, impact, corrosion and chemicals, as well as long service life and low fire hazard properties. Utilising Adaptalok sealing systems also offers ingress protection, particularly valuable in pressure washing applications, with our specialist insert seal raising the IP66 to IP67/68/69.
