MTL7700 range – accessories

MTL7700  range of barriers mount directly onto DIN-rail. A 
comprehensive selection of mounting, tagging, power and earthing 
accessories is available. Installation details are given in section 4.3.

Essential accessories

The following are usually considered essential for mounting and 
earthing MTL7700 range of barriers:

DIN-rail (eg, THR2 or THR7000)
Insulating spacers (eg, ISP7000)
Earth terminal (eg, ETL7000)

The tagging systems for individual modules and columns of 
barriers are described here. They are shown below under Tagging 
accessories for columns of barriers.

Mounting accessories (figure 2)

THR2 

 

Standard DIN-rail, 35 x 7.5mm, (in 1m lengths)

THR7000

 

Nickel-plated DIN-rail, 35 x 7.5mm, for use in 
potentially corrosive atmospheres (in 1m 
lengths)

ISP7000

 

Insulating spacer: attaches to the base of a DIN-
rail to isolate the IS earth from a structural earth

Tagging accessories for individual barriers (figure 2)

TH7700

 

Tag holder for mounting on the top of an 
individual barrier

Tagging accessories for columns of barriers (figure 2)

TAG57

 

Tagging strips for mounting over a column of 
barriers, for marking barrier locations. Supplied 
(with labels) in 1m lengths for cutting to size.

TGL7700

 

Spare labels for use with TAG57 tagging strips: 
0.5m strips, supplied in sets of 10.

IMB57

 

Tagging strip supports. Two needed for each 
tagging strip. It can also be used as centre 
support by breaking off the top end tab. 

Power accessories (figure 3)

BPL7700

 

Power link for feeding 24V dc to a maximum of 
40 barriers in a single column from an MTL7798 
power feed module or MTL7799 Dummy 
module.

Earthing accessories (figure 3)

ETL7000

 

Earth terminal providing connections for 
routeing the IS earth from the DIN-rail to an 
appropriate

 plant earth. Two recommended for 

each length of DIN-rail.

ERB57S

 

Nickel-plated straight earth-rail bracket, supplied 

with two push fasteners, one 14mm earth-rail 

clamp and one 9mm earth clamp < 16mm
