DEFENDER CABLE CROSSOVERS
You have chosen the DEFENDER series and thus made the best choice when it comes to protecting your cables.
Although using our cable crossovers is a simple and logical matter, here are a few helpful tips on handling and
using them.
PATENTED WITH SELF-CLEANING HINGE (EU Patent No.: EP1366550) MADE IN GERMANY!
All of our crossovers are made of extremely sturdy, nonbreakable TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane). If necessary,
the crossovers can be cleaned without trouble, even using a steam jet cleaner. In order to ensure trouble-free
functioning, however, the hinge area and the fastener should always be kept clean. Lubricate the hinge and
fastener lightly as needed. For this, we recommend using a commercially available Teflon or silicone spray. Wipe
off excess lubricant after application to avoid any risk of slipping.
USE AND LOAD BEARING CAPACITY
Please note that additional markings / hazard warnings or even permits may be required when using cable
crossovers on public thoroughfares, walkways, etc. To find the right cable crossover for your respective require-
ments, please see the attached tables for the load bearing capacity.
PREREQUISITE
Please always remember that the respectively specified safe load is for use on a firm, level surface. Load bearing
capacity may be greatly reduced on uneven or soft ground. In such cases, you should conduct appropriate load
tests before using the crossover.
FIRE PREVENTION
All DEFENDER cable crossovers are made of polyurethane. They have a B2 fire resistance rating (also available
with a B1 rating – difficult to ignite – in compliance with DIN4102) and are resistant to oil, acids & petrol. The
operating temperature range is approx. -40°C to +70°C. The Shore A hardness range is 88 ± 4.
