Air Guard cable seal by PDU Cables Inc.
Proving that sometimes the best things are the simple things, PDU Cable Inc.'s Air Guard takes the gold for helping to prevent air loss in plenum cooled floors with its simple concept and design. The overlapping brushes in Air Guards unique design seals the cable openings, increases static pressure under the floor and keeps debris from entering the air plenum.
The new design incorporates a mechanical latch on the side bar allowing users to easily remove one side of the unit to remove floor tiles without disconnecting power and data cables. UL-recognized flame retardant heavy duty PVC provides a finished look. Textured surface compliments all floor coverings. Mounting hardware and cutout template are included. Dimensions: 6.0" H x 12.0" W x 1.5" D.
The overlapping brushes in Air Guard's unique design allow flexibility and simplicity in cable routing. The Air Guard is easily installed in any location on the floor panel. Two Air Guards can be interlocked and installed on the floor panel to accommodate a variety of cable sizes. Relocating the Air Guard is also simple and inexpensive.
