Cable Tray Cover
The M.E.2 cable management system is manufactured with rigid .187 diameter zinc plated steel wire, welded in a 2 inch x 4 inch grid. M.E.2 cable trays can be configured at the installation site. Seven or 10 foot straight tray sections are easy to handle. Two or 4 inch deep trays available in 6, 8, 12, 18 and 24 inch widths, offer a wide variety of wire channel routing and protection options. The 2 x 4 inch grid design facilitates simple cable break outs while supporting the cable. The open grid design prevents dirt and dust build-up experienced in closed cable trays. Changes in tray routing directions are made with factory fabricated “L,” “T,” and “X” type tray junctions. Reducer sections come in wider dimensions only where required, building in cost savings. Tray sections can be easily interconnected, using industry common splice washer clamps. M.E.2 trays can be mounted on walls or posts, on ceilings or installed under raised flooring with Cable-Mgr Hardware.
Features and Benefits
Field fabricated junctions allow for difficult installations.
Seven or 10 foot length straight tray sections can be cut to length or formed by cutting side wires to change routing elevation at the installation site.
2 x 4 inch grid provides easy cable routing in or out of tray sections.
Available metal tray divider for cable separation.
Rigid steel construction – Made in the USA.
Alternative finishes:
Hot dip galvanized
304 stainless steel
316L stainless steel
Wire Management Products
The Wiremaid U.S.A. Products Division of Vutec Corporation entered the cable tray arena with the development of PRO-10 and M.E.2 wire cable tray systems.
PRO-10 cable tray is an innovative and cost-effective system that easily adapts to the most difficult installations. Designed for the low voltage industry and developed with the architect, engineer and installer in mind, PRO-10's pre-fabricated junctions/intersections and ease of installation make it a cost-effective choice of contractors throughout the United States.
M.E.2 cable tray management system is manufactured with rigid .187 diameter zinc-plated steel wire, welded in a two inch by four inch grid facilitating easy cable break outs while supporting the cable. The open grid design prevents dirt build-up and dust experienced in closed cable trays.
