Prysmian BICON Flexo Trackside Disconnect Boxes – Features & Benefits

The design principles applied ensure that every unit exceeds the performance requirements. Specifically, the threaded inserts are fully bonded to the neoprene to ensure integrity. Manufactured from high grade brass to guarantee long life. The covers are exceptionally tough and corrosion resistant. The neoprene body ensures the elimination of vibration degradation and that terminations will not fracture.

Prysmian BICON Flexo Trackside Disconnect Boxes – Installation

Cable entry is simplifed by the provision of moulded nesting grooves to suit individual applications. The cables are secured by means of a full width clamp/brush sealing arrangement requiring a single allen key only. This facilitates rapid assembly and allows cable routings to be checked quickly and easily. The boxes’ design allows them to be used with cables requiring terminating on site or with certain products from the range of Prysmian pre-terminated detection system cables.
