    Raychem GUROSIL Gel – IP68 Protection for Electrical Connections

    The Raychem GUROSIL Gel is designed to protect electrical connections from the ingress of water, and can be used in rooms with high humidity effects as well as in outdoor applications.  The system is tested up to 18m water depth for over 1000 hours and provides reliable protection against mechanical shock and vibration.

    GUROSIL Gel is a soft-elastic hardening, amber cold casting compound that is based on hydrocarbon resins. It is environmentally friendly, halogen, silicon and isocyanate free.  Quick and clean casting is simple with the help of standard caulking guns, so no special tools are required. It is easy to remove, repairable and self-resealing. Electrical connections can be tested and repaired quickly where required, even after installation had been finished.

    GUROSIL Gel can be injected into any Australian-approved electrical junction box to provide the enclosed connections with high levels of protection.

    Raychem GUROSIL Gel, along with the complete Raychem LV/MV range of cable accessories, is proudly distributed by GLA (Gilbert Lodge Australia.

  • The Mainline Power Track System from GLA enlarge

    The Mainline Power Track System from GLA

    Mainline is an innovative, track-based power distribution system which allows flexible access to power when and where it is needed. With the Mainline Power Track System, distributed by GLA in Australia and New Zealand, you have the ability to safely and easily add, remove and reposition adapters anywhere along the track, offering a truly convenient and flexible power solution. The system is safe and cost effective to install, minimising the need to use power boards and extension leads.

    Features & Benefits  

    Complete flexible access to power: Furniture placement is no longer governed by the location of fixed power points. Mainline enables furniture to be positioned wherever desired, then outlets are added where required.

    Improved safety: Less terminations and reconnections when compared to traditional power points. Lower potential for a hot spot (excessive heat rise) being created, reducing the risk of fires when a fault situation occurs.

    Removable adapters: Power points can be removed when not in use. This further improves safety and eliminates possible circuit leakage, resulting in less energy being consumed and therefore lower CO2 emissions.  

    Minimalist design: Allowing incorporation and blending into its environment, Mainline can add to the aesthetics of a room.

    Greater flexibility for design: Mainline provides greater flexibility for designers, architects, developers, builders and end users, saving countless hours of work trying to determine power point locations to allow for current and possible further furniture placement and room layout changes.

     

    How Mainline Works

    To access power simply insert the Mainline adaptor into the track and turn clockwise to the ‘ON’ position. Add as many adaptors (power points) as you need (subject to power consumption limits) in complete safety and at your convenience.
