The SL200801 base channel for baseboard trunking from Hager is a device mounting channel made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with dimensions of 20 mm depth, 80 mm height, and a length of 2000 mm. It serves as a base for baseboard trunking channels in the field of electrical installation and enables structured cable routing along walls. The product is black and complies with DIN EN 50085-1, which defines requirements for electrical installation systems for use in buildings. The material contains at least 30 % recycled content, highlighting the product’s sustainability. The IP40 protection rating ensures protection against solid foreign objects and splashing water, making the channel suitable for indoor use. The IK07 impact resistance provides sufficient mechanical stability against mechanical stress. The operating temperature range is between 5 °C and 60 °C.

Applications
This channel is specifically designed for the installation of electrical cables in indoor environments. It is commonly used in office buildings, apartments, or commercial spaces where orderly and concealed cable routing is required. The pre-punched keyhole slots spaced at 125 mm intervals facilitate wall mounting and allow for quick and precise installation without tools. The chambered design ensures a minimum clearance of 10 mm from the floor, enabling safe and compliant installation of insulated cables.

Functions and Features in Detail
The base unit features three chambers, enabling system separation of cables. This is particularly important to spatially separate different cable systems such as power supply, data communication, or safety cables, thereby minimizing interference or hazards. The maximum capacity is six cables with a cable diameter of 11 mm and a fill rate of 50 %, distributed as two cables in the second chamber and four cables in the third chamber. The fourth chamber is unoccupied, increasing flexibility in planning. Tool-free mounting of device carriers is also possible, speeding up installation and improving work quality.

Technical Explanation
The channel is made of PVC, a robust and dimensionally stable plastic suitable for indoor installation systems. The use of at least 30 % recycled material reduces the ecological footprint. The IP40 protection rating means the channel is protected against solid foreign objects (e.g. dust) and splashing water, making it suitable for use in normal indoor environments. The IK07 impact resistance ensures the channel is resistant to mechanical impacts such as light shocks or pressure loads. The pre-punched keyhole slots allow for quick and precise wall mounting, reducing installation time.

Compatibility and Accessories
The SL200801 base unit is compatible with baseboard trunking top covers such as SL2008029016 (traffic white) and with device carrier skirts such as SL20080A9016 (white). These accessories complement the system and enable a complete installation with matching cover and device mounting. Combining with the top cover SL2008029016 provides an aesthetic finish and protects the cables inside. The device carrier skirt is used to mount sockets, switches, or other electrical devices within the channel.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by securing to the wall using the pre-punched keyhole slots spaced at 125 mm intervals. This allows for quick and tool-free installation. Tool-free mounting of device carriers is achieved via integrated holders within the channel. Installation requires no additional tools apart from a screwdriver or drill for wall fastening. The chambers are designed to allow clear separation of cables, simplifying planning and maintenance of the installation.

Operational Advantages
The channel provides structured and orderly cable routing, simplifying maintenance and expansion of the installation. The system separation in three chambers reduces the risk of interference between different cable systems. Tool-free mounting of device carriers speeds up installation and reduces labor effort. The use of recycled material contributes to sustainability. The IP40 protection rating and IK07 impact resistance ensure safe and durable use indoors.
