A new generation of split cable entry frames for the KT grommet system from icotek has been released. The KEL-FA cable entry system has a tool-free assembly, high cable density and easy routing of pre-terminated cables. The system may be used for routing and sealing cables with and without connectors, as well as hydraulic and pneumatic hoses.

Use of the system is easy due to its tool-free design. Once the entry frame has been populated with grommets and cables, the cover is pressed down until the two clamping levers are locked into place. The frame design ensures a twist-proof assembly which can be either screw-mounted or simply snapped into the larger KEL-SNAP frame.

The KEL-FA frames match the cut-out dimensions for 10-, 16- and 24-pin standard industrial connectors and the system can route and seal cables with diameters from 1 to 35 mm. The frame has an integrated gasket on the rear side, which ensures a clean sealing between the frame and the wall. With the use of multi-hole grommets, a very high cable density of up to 40 lines through one frame can be achieved.

The KEL-FA system consists of polyamide and is free of silicone and halogen. The cable entry frame achieves ingress protection IP54, and has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 140°C.
