When you need to protect power, data and control cables in hazardous areas, flexible conduit systems can be the perfect answer.

They physically sheath cables in a rugged tube, with a variety of materials to choose from including metal and sturdy plastic piping.

Flexible conduit systems can cater for a number of different hazards, including:

  • Explosion risk
  • Fire risk
  • Oil exposure
  • Chemical exposure
  • High temperatures

These kinds of protection can also be achieved using rigid structures; however, flexible conduits are ideal for fast installation of complex routes.

 

No need to cut corners

When you need to lay cables around corners, or even more complicated routes like zig-zags, flexible conduit systems are your friend.

Flexible steel-core PVC and over braided nylon can snake around obstacles and obstructions and can be securely fastened to suitable structures and walls.

Elbow joints at 45 and 90-degree angles mean where necessary – or where you want to – you can make a connection rather than simply bending the conduit to shape.

All of this makes flexible conduit systems versatile and adaptable to a wide range of different hazardous areas, and Cable Systems are happy to make recommendations if you’re not sure which is the best type of conduit for the job.
