A Vital Tool for Electrical Facilities
Introducing the Mk1500
When you open a power distribution panel, you are confronted with an array of tightly packed terminals, circuit
breakers, and switches, and these myriad devices are connected by a maze of cables. If each device and cable
is not clearly labeled with a symbol or a number, maintenance can become a nightmare. In such electrical
facilities, it is common practice to use printed tube to identify cables and printed labels to identify switches.
The Mk1500 is used to print such labels and tube.
Easy yet high-quality
printing
Printing tube
The Mk1500 can print
tube that identify cables:
“AB-01” or “+20V”, for
example. Because the tube
that is used is available
commercially, the Mk1500
provides an economical
solution. The Mk1500 can
also be used to print on heat
shrink tube and 4mm I.D.
strip.
Label switches clearly
Printing labels
The Mk1500 can also be
used to print label tape (sold
separately). Because labels
that correspond to speci
fi c
cable tube labels can be
printed and applied to the
corresponding devices,
using such labels results in
improved ef
fi ciency.
