AddBlock

There are eleven different sizes of AddBlock. By tearing off the wing-like inserts, which are of varying thickness, and inserting them in the main block it is possible to accommodate 66 different cable and pipe dimensions, from 3.5 mm (00.14”) to 69.5 mm (2.74”). The inserts are fitted with a locating ridge that fits exactly into furrows in the main block.
These stop the block from ”telescoping".

  • AddBlock is available as both Ex and EMC.

Plugs and wraps
The plug’s main purpose is to prepare coming installations by creating a spare block together with an AddBlock. Once the cable penetration is to be done, the plug is removed and the AddBlock is reused. 

 

In the table you see which plug, or combination of plug and wrap-around casing, to use when turning an AddBlock into a spare block.
