The BA6 wiring channel made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in the colour Stone Grey (RAL 7030) is a system for structured cable installation in indoor environments. With dimensions of 43 mm height, 31 mm width, and a length of 2000 mm, it offers a usable internal cross-section of 1178 mm². The product consists of a lower part with slotted side walls and a matching upper part for closing the channel. The base perforation conforms to standard EN 50085, enabling compatible mounting on standard mounting plates.

Applications

The channel is designed for the installation of electrical wiring and data cables in buildings, particularly in areas where orderly and aesthetically pleasing cable routing is required. It is suitable for use in office buildings, apartments, industrial facilities, and other indoor spaces where open cabling is necessary. The Stone Grey colour (RAL 7030) ensures discreet integration into the environment.

Functions and Features in Detail

The system features side walls with a slot spacing of 6 mm and a slot width of 4 mm, enabling flexible cable fixation and easy installation. The upper part is included in the delivery scope and provides a closed, clean surface. Material properties include self-extinguishing characteristics according to UL 94 V0, offering enhanced safety in fire hazards. Creepage resistance is guaranteed, supporting electrical safety during operation.

Technical Explanation

The channel is made of PVC, a robust and widely used plastic in electrical installations. The slotted side walls allow for easy and secure cable fixation without damaging the cables. The base perforation according to EN 50085 ensures universal mounting on standard mounting plates, simplifying installation. The fire resistance class M1 indicates that the material is only limitedly flammable and does not release hazardous gases when exposed to fire.

Compatibility and Accessories

Various accessories are available for mounting and securing the channel. These include spacers in sizes 20 mm (item M5159) and 12 mm (item M51592), enabling secure and stable fixation. For precise processing of the channel, the channel shear L5561 with a cutting length of 85 mm is suitable. These tools support adapting the channel to individual mounting conditions.

Mounting and Installation

Mounting is done via screw fastening or riveting onto a mounting plate. The base perforation according to EN 50085 enables simple and standardised fastening. Installation requires no special tools other than a screwdriver or riveting tool. The upper part is placed onto the lower part after cable installation and secured.

Operational Advantages

The channel provides structured and secure cable routing, simplifying maintenance and expansion of the installation. The self-extinguishing property and creepage resistance enhance operational safety. The Stone Grey colour (RAL 7030) ensures discreet integration into the environment. The use of PVC ensures high mechanical stability and durability.

Standards and Conformity

The product complies with flammability class UL 94 V0 and fire resistance class M1. It is REACh-SVHC free and RoHS-compliant, ensuring environmental compatibility and adherence to European regulations for electrical equipment. The mounting method according to EN 50085 ensures high compatibility with standard mounting plates.

Material and Environment

The channel is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a widely used material in electrical installations. The material is not flexible but offers high mechanical stability. Conformity with REACh and RoHS indicates that the product contains no harmful substances dangerous to the environment or health.
