Knightsbridge’s Tenax offers up to 48 bulkhead options

The Tenax range of polycarbonate bulkheads from Knightsbridge – one of the UK’s leading manufacturers or wiring accessories and lighting – has just got tougher and more versatile with the introduction of the Tenax Pro Series and two more gear trays. The modular design and wide range of options enable the Tenax Pro to be tailored to any situation without requiring an extensive inventory – there are up to 48 different combinations out of the base choices of cases and gear trays.

The casing can be square or round, black or grey, standard or anti-vandal eyelid design and there is a choice of eight gear trays: standard, emergency, self-test, microwave, emergency microwave, self-test microwave and the two latest additions, which are equipped with daylight sensors.

The standard LED gear tray delivers luminosity ranging from 1,200lm at 10W to 2,100lm at 20W, ensuring adequate illumination while maintaining energy efficiency. The emergency LED gear trays goes further by incorporating a three-hour emergency backup powered by a lithium (LiFeP04) battery, ensuring continued operation during power outages.

Also fitted with a photocell to detect natural light, the standard and emergency LED gear trays save energy by cutting out when not needed. Available in three colour temperatures – 3000k, 4000k, and 5700k – and wattages of 10W, 15W, and 20W, these gear trays cut complexity by combining triple wattage and colour adjustments into a single gear tray. Installation is simple too, thanks to push-fit terminals. By offering a choice of six casings and eight gear trays, Knightsbridge enables customers to streamline their inventory and installation processes, providing a mix-and-match approach that reduces the need to stock a wide variety of components.

Covered by a five-year warranty, the Tenax Pro series is IP66 rated for dust and water and IK10 for impact and guarded by stainless steel tamper-proof screws so each unit is secure and durable. BESA box compatible, the casings have multiple 20mm conduit entries for easy installation.
