Product Information
The Steel Raceway is a large capacity, two-piece steel surface raceway designed for dry interior location installations. It provides superior strength and extra large cross-sectional area for accommodating large wiring requirements or installations that use large diameter cable for power and/or data/communications. The raceway features a dividable base that allows for the creation of two compartments, making it ideal for bringing large amounts of power and data/communications cable to one location. It also comes with a complete line of fittings for interconnection between raceway systems.
The Steel Raceway has a gray baked enamel and Ivory ScuffCoat finish, ensuring durability and scratch resistance. It can be easily overpainted to match the surrounding decor. This raceway can be installed as a feeder or header raceway, making it suitable for overhead, open spaces, and underfloor applications. It can accommodate large size devices, accepting single- and dual-gang devices up to 100 amps and circuit breakers up to three poles.
The raceway includes pre-cut covers for standard outlet center locations, reducing the need for field cuts and saving labor. It also comes with base and cover cutters that are lightweight and portable, offering labor savings for any size job while maintaining clean and square cuts. The Steel Raceway is ADA compliant and can be installed in conformance with ADA requirements. It is UL Listed and CSA Certified. Additionally, the Steel Raceway accepts industry standard and proprietary devices from various manufacturers, providing seamlessconnectivity for voice, data, audio, and video applications at the point of use.
Product Usage Instructions
- Identify the desired installation location for the Steel Raceway.
- Ensure that the location is suitable for a dry interior installation.
- Measure the wiring requirements or the diameter of the cable to determine the appropriate size of the raceway.
- If needed, divide the raceway base using the snap-in divider to create two compartments.
- Install the raceway using appropriate mounting hardware and techniques suitable for the chosen application (overhead, open spaces, underfloor).
- Connect the raceway to the power and data/communications sources using compatible fittings.
- If necessary, use the base and cover cutters to make clean and square cuts on the raceway.
- Install large size devices such as single- and dual-gang devices and circuit breakers within the raceway, ensuring they are within the accepted size limits.
- If applicable, mount devices on the pre-cut covers for standard outlet center locations.
- Ensure proper connectivity by using industry standard or proprietary devices from various manufacturers.
- Comply with ADA requirements during the installation process.
- Refer to the Technical Section of ED1560 (Product Guide) for additional information as needed.
Large Capacity, Two-Piece Steel Surface Raceway
6000® Series Raceway can be used divided for separate wiring circuits or multi-service applications. For large cabling installations, 6000 can be used undivided as headers and feeders or to bring wiring to a specified location. 6000 Series Raceway is ideal for all applications requiring a high cable capacity, dual service steel raceway. Commercial, institutional, and industrial applications all benefit from the 6000 Series rigid steel construction and durable Ivory ScuffCoat™ finish. 6000 Series Raceway is also ideal for municipalities that require either all steel construction or prohibit nonmetallic cable management systems.
