Control Cabinet Cable Entry Systems From AutomationDirect

April 7, 2020

The KDL/D cable entry system allows cables to be installed through enclosures or other bulkhead surfaces, with the added benefit that pre-made, terminated cables can be installed without disassembling the connectors. The split-frame system enables the quick and simple installation of up to 48 cables in a single frame. Four frame sizes, starting at $16.00, fit standard cut-out dimensions and provide integrated strain relief. The KLD/D system’s robust multi-part frame design gives better mechanical stability while achieving a high degree of environmental protection.

The multi-part split-frame system clamps together with a grommet block and grommets to provide a high-density cable entry point with an IP65 environmental rating. Small and medium size grommets (from $6.00) accept cable diameters from 0.08 to 0.87 inches (2 to 22mm). Double cable and multi-line grommets accept more than a single cable. A blank grommet is also available for any unused medium openings in the grommet block.

Optional discharge plates ($29.00 each) install directly to the cable entry frame on the inside of the control cabinet and eliminate interference that can occur on cable shields.

The KDL/D cable entry system from AutomationDirect is cURus approved and backed by a 2-year warranty.
