MITA GRP Cable Tray

MITA GRP cable tray is available with solid or slotted base and covers (lids). MITA GRP cable tray system is supported by a complete range of flat bends, external risers, internal risers, tee/cross units, reducers and couplers. 

GRP cable tray offers structural strength and rigidity required for rail cable support systems - GRP cable tray provides high load bearing, corrosion, fire and weathering resistance.

Specially modified acrylic resin GRP cable tray with LSF zero halogen low smoke properties for cable containment within tunnels. 

• Fire Retardant Resins - Fire Performance GRP Cable Tray to BS476/ASTM E84
• Modar/Phenolic Resins - Low Smoke Fume (LSF) GRP Cable Tray to BS6853/NES 713

Ellis Patents Pegasus nylon cable hangers are extensively specified for the support of rail cables where an anti-static, non-metallic cable containment system is required.

MITA GRP Cable Tray for Channel Tunnel Rail Link - Press Release 
Mita (UK) Ltd have recently supplied high-strength, corrosion and fire-resistant composite Glass Reinforced Polyester (GRP) cable tray and support systems for multiple electrical services for Phase II of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link (CTRL).

Opened in 2007, Phase II of the 108 km high speed rail line linking the Folkstone end of the Channel Tunnel to London, runs from Ebbsfleet in Kent to the new London St Pancras International station, a distance of 39 km.  Part of one of the UK’s largest civil engineering projects, the route includes over 40km of twin  bore tunnels running under the Thames at Dartford and from Dagenham to Central London.

Containment and protection for multiple electrical services, including power, lighting, signa

lling and data-communications cabling is provided by heavy-duty Cabsys GRP cable tray manufactured by Mita.  More than 20 km of the heavy duty GRP cable tray together with Fibastrut channel-type supports have been installed throughout the cross-passages which link the twin running-tunnels as well as in sections of the main tunnels themselves.

All components supplied by Mita (UK) Ltd for the project have been manufactured in GRP composite using special ‘modar’ resin and pultrusion lamination technology.

Not only does this combine fire-resistance with low smoke, zero halogen performance, it also gives a high loading to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, minimal maintenance requirements with speed and ease of installation, to reduce through-life costs to a minimum.
