The GLS5510 device mounting box from Hager is a 1-module unit for installation in C-profile trunking channels. It enables secure and tool-free mounting of communication socket outlets as well as switches from standard installation switch ranges. The box allows both vertical and horizontal installation and is modularly stackable, ensuring flexible and neat cabling in the installation. The increased installation depth ensures a flush finish at the top edge of the trunking channel, enabling an aesthetically pleasing and professional appearance.
Device mounting box is the product type specifically designed for use in trunking channels. The mounting method is at the rear wall of the channel, where the box is secured by screw fastening. The fastening is done on a 60 mm mounting track, designed for accommodating standard installation switches and communication outlets. The box features a carrier ring or carrier bracket, which securely holds the devices and ensures stable mounting.
Cable strain relief capability is integrated to reduce mechanical stress caused by cable connections. This protects the cabling and devices from damage due to pulling forces. The tool-free locking mechanism enables quick and easy installation in the channel, with foldable tabs facilitating the connection of multiple boxes. This design reduces installation time and increases efficiency during installation.
The box is made of polyamide (PA), a robust plastic known for its high mechanical strength and heat resistance. The color is black, ensuring visual harmony with most installation systems. The material is halogen-free, increasing safety in case of fire, as no toxic halogen compounds are released during a fire. Additionally, the product is RoHS-compliant, confirming compliance with the EU directive restricting certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.
Compatibility is a key feature: the box is designed for mounting communication socket outlets and fits standard installation switch ranges. It is specifically designed for use in C-profile trunking channels, enabling uniform and structured installation in office and administrative rooms. The modular design allows flexible arrangement of the boxes according to the requirements of each installation.
The functions and equipment in detail include the tool-free locking mechanism, enabling quick installation without additional tools. The foldable tabs facilitate cabling and connection of multiple boxes in a row. The box is open, allowing easy access to devices and cables. There is no integrated connection space, so cabling is done directly in the channel.
Mounting and installation are performed by screw fastening to the rear wall of the trunking channel. The 60 mm mounting track allows use with standard installation switches. The increased installation depth ensures a clean finish at the top edge of the channel. The box is designed for use in data installations, particularly for integrating data technology into trunking channels.
Operational advantages include quick and tool-free installation, mechanical stability provided by the carrier ring, and cable strain relief. The use of polyamide ensures long service life and resistance to mechanical stress. The halogen-free design increases fire safety. Compatibility with common switch ranges and communication outlets ensures universal applicability in various installation scenarios.
The box is intended for use in C-profile trunking channels and supports the integration of data technology into existing installation systems. The modular arrangement and tool-free locking simplify installation and maintenance. The use of polyamide and the halogen-free design meet modern requirements for safety and sustainability in electrical installations.
The box is supplied as a single unit, without additional components or documentation.
