Use this reference to prepare product questions for FD SOLUCIONES. Check interfaces, capacity, protection and installation requirements against the current product documentation.

Mesh cable tray cover plates can be securely fixed using pressing plates, screws, clasps, padlocks, or buckle systems depending on installation type and load requirements.

Common Fixing Methods

Pressing Plate Fixing Punch holes in the cover plate and place a pressing plate over it. Secure the cover plate and tray together using screws through the perforations. This method works for both horizontal and vertical installations and provides strong stability.

Screw Fastening Punch holes in the cover plate and use screws with rotating plates to fasten the cover to the tray. This method is suitable for all orientations and ensures a firm attachment. Buckle Fixing Bend the folds at both ends of the buckle to attach the cover plate to the tray.

This method does not require punching holes but is best for horizontal installations, as vertical setups may allow the cover to slip. Padlock Fixing Some mesh trays allow padlocks to secure the cover plate, providing additional security in areas where access needs to be restricted.

Seven-

Shaped Buckle Fixing This method uses a specialized seven-shaped clip to lock the cover plate in place, offering moderate strength and quick installation.

Installation Considerations

Orientation: Ensure the chosen fixing method is compatible with horizontal or vertical installation. Pressing plates and screws are versatile, while buckles are better for horizontal setups. Support and Mounting: Use appropriate wall-mounted brackets, ceiling-mounted supports, or suspended rods to ensure the tray itself is stable before fixing the cover plate.

Accessibility: Consider ease of maintenance; screw or buckle systems allow easier removal for cable access. Load and Safety: Ensure the fixing method can handle the weight of the cover plate and any environmental stress, such as vibration or airflow.
