CHANGING LEVELS
LOADING
Cablofil has been tested to UL, CSA, NEMA VE1 and IEC standards. Cablofil wire mesh tray and supports are designed to support any cable load allowed by the NEC when supports are spaced on 8' spans. Only the heaviest cables (750 kcmil multiconductor power or larger) may require shorter spans. For specific loading go to the interactive load table on www.cablofil. com and choose your exact cable for detailed cable capacity and span requirements.
To avoid obstructions or change levels, cut the side wires as shown and bend Cablofil cable tray to the angles needed.
SUPPORT SPACING
Cablofil comes in 118" lengths and straight sections are designed for 6'-8' support spacing; (building joists or purlins are typically on 6'-7' spacing) Cablofil has developed the following diagrams as a general guideline for supporting Field Fabricated Wire Mesh Tray. These guidelines will provide assistance in estimating and locating supports for the most common wire mesh tray installations. Supports are required as some of the side wires have been cut and the load capacity has been reduced. In actual installation, shallow and narrow trays may not require as many supports just as deep and wide trays may require additional supports. The installer should keep in mind that unique requirements arise in the field and practical solutions are often simple.
