The BR3-OT80 from GGK is a top section for dado channels, made of PVC and compliant with the standard DIN EN 50085-2-1. It serves as an internal cover element that is snapped into the bottom section of the dado channel to ensure a closed and aesthetically pleasing cover. The product is specifically designed for use with dado channels of dimensions BR 60x110/80, BR 60x130/80, and BR 60x170/80, where the designation 80 refers to the height of the bottom section. The construction allows for clean and secure routing of cables and lines along dadoes, for example in office buildings, industrial facilities, or administrative buildings, where orderly and discreet cable routing is required.

Applications

The BR3-OT80 is used in electrical and IT installations where integrated cable routing along dadoes is necessary. It is particularly suitable for rooms with high requirements for cleanliness and visual elegance, such as administrative buildings, hospitals, or schools. Use is intended for indoor environments, as the material is PVC and does not offer special outdoor properties such as UV resistance or weather resistance. The cover protects the installed lines from mechanical damage and ensures structured cable routing.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The top section is designed as an internal element that is snapped into the bottom section of the dado channel. This snapping is achieved through a precisely shaped design that ensures a secure and stable connection. The surface is smooth and provides an even cover. The colour is alpine white, offering a neutral and universally applicable appearance. The use of PVC as the material ensures good shape stability and resistance to common indoor environmental conditions.

Technology Explained Simply

The product complies with the standard DIN EN 50085-2-1, which defines requirements for cable management systems for use in buildings. The standard specifies, among other things, the mechanical and electrical properties as well as the construction of the channels. The PVC material provides sufficient strength to withstand mechanical stress from snapping and cable installation. The design as a top section allows for easy installation, as it does not require additional screwing or gluing, but is fixed in the bottom section by form fit.

Compatibility and Accessories

The BR3-OT80 is compatible with dado channels BR 60x110/80, BR 60x130/80, and BR 60x170/80. The designation 80 refers to the height of the bottom section into which the top section is snapped. The channel dimensions are designed so that the top section fits exactly and enables a seamless cover. No additional accessories are required to install the top section; the connection is purely mechanical through snapping.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out by simply snapping the top section into the already installed bottom section of the dado channel. No additional fastening such as screws or adhesive is required. The precise fit of the shape ensures that the top section sits securely and cannot be accidentally pulled out. Installation typically takes place after the cables have been laid in the bottom section, with the cables fully positioned before snapping in the top section.

Advantages in Operation

The BR3-OT80 provides a clean and professional cover for cable routing along dadoes. The simple installation without tools or additional fastening materials reduces installation time. The use of PVC ensures a long service life under normal indoor conditions. The alpine white colour seamlessly integrates into most interior designs, making the installation visually unobtrusive. Compliance with DIN EN 50085-2-1 ensures adherence to applicable standards for cable management systems in buildings.
