FAQs
The FTA4K is designed to integrate with Eaton’s B-Line Flextray system, ensuring seamless physical and mechanical compatibility with existing trays, fittings, and mounting hardware used in standard electrical and data-center installations. When planning a retrofit or new build, verify enclosure dimensions, mounting patterns, and available support brackets to maintain proper cable support and airflow. No special adapters are required beyond standard Flextray components, which helps reduce part variation and procurement lead times.
The catalog entry for FTA4K does not publish a specific load rating. Engineers should perform a site-appropriate assessment of cable density, weight distribution, and planned future growth. For high-density installations, distribute cables across multiple trays or use longer runs with additional support points. Always follow NEC guidelines and Eaton’s installation recommendations from the Flextray installation guide to ensure safe and compliant support.
Yes, the FTA4K is well-suited for data-center cable management due to its steel construction, compact footprint, and compatibility with the Flextray ecosystem. Benefits include quick installation, reliable mechanical support for both power and data cabling, improved airflow due to open basket design, and regulatory confidence from CSA compliance and UL Classified certification. This combination supports scalable growth, easier asset tracking, and reduced downtime during rack or cabinet reconfiguration.
The FTA4K carries UL Classified certification and CSA compliance. UL Classified indicates the product has been evaluated for use within specific systems and configurations, reinforcing safety and reliability in electrical installations. CSA compliance demonstrates adherence to recognized Canadian standards. Together, these certifications help simplify supplier qualification, support regulatory audits, and mitigate risk when designing or upgrading electrical and data-cabling infrastructure.
The FTA4K contributes to TCO by offering a durable steel solution with a lightweight form factor that speeds installation and minimizes labor hours. Its compatibility with the Flextray system reduces spare parts diversity, aiding in inventory control. The UL Classified and CSA-compliant design reduces regulatory risk and maintenance intervals, while its compact size helps maximize enclosure utilization and airflow, lowering cooling costs over the equipment lifecycle.
