1485 Series Lay - In Wireway - NEMA 12

Application  

• Designed to enclose and protect electrical wiring from dirt, dust, oil and water.
• All sections and fittings are completely open on each side to allow wires and cables to be placed into the wireway without "pulling through".

• UL 870 Type 1 (unless marked1)
• CSA Type 1 (unless marked1)
• Complies with
  • NEMA Type 12
  • IEC 60529, IP54

• Smooth continuously welded seams.
• Interior surfaces are smooth to prevent wire damage during 
  installation.
• Butt hinged cover is secured with easily operated quick release clamps.
• Oil resistant gaskets are permanently secured.
• Solid oil resistant gaskets are used between flanges when sections and fittings are bolted together.
• One gasket kit, complete with hardware is provided with each straight section or fitting.
• Sealing plate is supplied.
• Flange junctions are sealed with gasket sealing plates, which are put in place after wiring is completed. One is supplied with all straight sections and most fittings; see table for exact number.

Notes

• When joining a wireway section or fitting to an enclosure be sure to order a box connector.
• When joining two wireway sections, or joining a wireway section to a fitting, a flat sealing plate is required at each junction; necessary kits are supplied with each section and fitting. See table, extra kits may be ordered if necessary.
• When joining a lay-in wireway section or fitting to a closure plate, a box connector, or cut-off fitting, an angle sealing plate is required at each junction.
• Necessary kits are supplied with each section and fitting - see table. Extra kits, although not normally required, are necessary when joining lay-in wireway to a non-lay-in section or fitting section.
