MTL7700 Series – accessories

MTL7700 Series 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 Series 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.
