APPLICATIONSTEKNOMEGA bar supports make it possible to support efficiently and conveniently all copper and/or aluminum bar systems to be made inside anelectric cabinet.

The versatility and universality of our bar supports allows the panel board fitter to easily handle the few references to make a wide range ofconfigurations in any type of panel board metalwork. TEKNOMEGA dedicated particular attention on the efficiency and safety of these products,carrying out TYPE TESTS on all the hereindicated references as per the requirements of the reference standards at acknowledged laboratories.

ADVANTAGESComplete range to support side and level bars For copper and aluminum bars Maximum versatility of use and applicationCan be used on the following thicknesses: Quick and simplified Universal fitting5 and 10 mm for side bar supportfrom 4 to 14 mm for level bar supportFor systems up to 3,200 Amp

Tested and certified in compliance with standards IEC 439-1

Ω TOP - Universal bar support

The Ω TOP bar support is built using two references only:1) aluminum support and fitting channel.2) set of blocks/screws with all that is needed to make a bar support.There are also some pre-assembled bar support for panel boards 400 and 600 mm depth, as well as accessories such as:- rilsan tube advised for configurations with minimum spacing between phases - brackets for horizontal omnibus and vertical busbar (to be used also to compensate the offset between different bar systems.)

SUPPORT CHANNEL - one single code for all configurations- made in aluminum, prepunched with 12.5 mm pitch- length 2 meters

- used, double thanks to the asymmetric shape, it forms a highmechanical resistance structure (for high horizontal loads)

rtsΩ TOP - Universal bar support (tables of distances)

Distance between support depending on Icc (short-circuit current)Icc pk = Short-circuit current peak value of short duration, equal to 200 mseconds, expressed in kAmperesIcc rms = Effective value of short-circuit current, duration equal to 1 second, expressed in kAmperes

INFORMATION FOR ASSEMBLY

• The first and last bar support must be assembled at a distance from the bar extremities not exceeding 1/4 of the distance requested betweenboth supports.

• In some minimum phase spacing configurations, it might be difficult for the internal phases to insert the screws; one should do one phase ata time.

• In minimum phase spacing configurations, one should use the TOP1055 RILSAN tube to insulate the tie-rod.

• In horizontal configurations starting from copper 80x10 bar nr. 2 or 50x10 bar nr. 3 per phase, one should use the DOUBLE aluminum channel(i.e. two coupled channels, one inside the other, to create a kind of square pipe with significant mechanical rigidity (cf. picture on page 21).

NB. The distances between supports (in mm) are computed considering the yield stress of copper; the indicated values therefore preventpermanent deformation of the copper bars when stressed by short-circuit conditions.

Ω FLAT bar support (table of distances)

Distance between support depending on Icc (short-circuit current)Icc pk = Short-circuit current peak value of short duration, equal to 200 mseconds, expressed in kAmperesIcc rms = Efficient value of short-circuit current, duration equal to 1 second, expressed in kAmperes

NOTE: The first space between phases value refers to the use of the "T" block (air distance between two adjacent bars, equal to 20 mm).

The second space between phases value refers to the use back to back "L" blocks(air distance between two adjacent bars, equal to 40 mm).

Further values refer to the use of the "L" blocks only (2 per bar) spaced between each other.

For other distance between phase values, contact our technical office.

- values lower than 100 mm.
