Notes
1. In outdoor installations or in aggressive chemical environments it is necessary to periodically check the installation.
2. In outdoor installations, a colour change may occur on the raw material, without affecting its mechanical features. If painted, dark colored paints might cause further warming of the product once exposed to the sun, in such case we recommend to install Cable trays in U48X.
3. Detection limit for the analytical technique applied.
4. Except for new part numbers, which are under process of obtaining quality marks and approvals. See updated information of each part number on www.unex.net
5. The values indicated according to IEC 61537:2006 have been tested under its European implementation EN 61537:2007.
6. Tested according to standard prescriptions of EN 61537:2007 . Equivalent to IEC 61537:2006 Cable tray and cable ladder standard.
7. Tested according to standard prescriptions of EN 50085-1
8. Test carried out considering the use of the cable tray with cover to provide additional insulation to an isolated conductor according to requirements of EN 50085-1 standard (Low Voltage Directive)
