PVC Channels

konseal Channels consist of clip-on lid. It is fitted to the body simply by pressing it along its front face. The lid is removed by lifting it from the body at one end and then simply peeling it away. The lid closing mechanism is designed to give a securely closed installation, yet easily accessible for maintenance or modifications. International standards stipulate a maximum of 45% of the inside space of channels that can be occupied by cables.

Fixing
Holes are drilled on the base of the body. It is mechanically fixed to the desired surface using flat head screws. The distance between the fixing centres should not be more than 40 cm. And it should be not more than 15 cm from the end of a straight run.

Jointing
A fine toothed tenon saw and mitre block should be used to cut the channels. This will ensure accurate clean cuts, leading to an easy and efficient installation. In all straight joints, it is important to stagger the joints of the channel body and lid to give a better protection and reduce joint visibility. On straight runs longer than 6 m, allowance for expansion must be made. For corners, the channels must be mitred and for T- joints it must be slotted for cable entry.
