Allied Tube & Conduit 136 atkore.com/flexicon Flexicon FSU Conduit Our fitting's components are supplied part assembled to illustrate how they go together. Our C type fittings consist of a compression nut, an elastomeric seal, an insert and a body. Insert being fitted Firstly place the back nut on the conduit followed by the seal (note the orientation). Next, screw the insert into the end of the conduit until this gives a secure fit. Bring the body to mate with the back nut. Metal fittings should be tightened with grips or spanner to ensure security and IP rating. Attaching the body Non-metallic conduits to 34mm can be easily cut with Flexicon Conduit Cutters, part no. CC01. Use CC02 for sizes up to 67mm. Drop the blade into a corrugation and squeeze and twist until conduit is cut 50% through. Cut the remaining 50% without twisting to achieve a square cut. Non-Metallic Metallic conduits should be cut with a fine tooth (32 TPI) hacksaw or bandsaw. Ensure you make a straight vertical cut. Our clamping vice, part no. BSB makes the use of a hacksaw much easier. Metallic Cutting of overbraided conduit is made much easier by tightly wrapping self adhesive tape around the conduit and sawing through the middle of the tape. The tape should be removed after cutting if EMC screening is required. Ensure you make a straight vertical cut. Overbraided Note: Conduit length is measured under light tension. When cutting an exact number of lengths from a reel (e.g. 5 x 5m from 25m) please take into account the length tolerance of the reel and each cut length. FPA & Ultra™ Fitting Our range of non-metallic conduit fittings, Flexicon Ultra™, Flexilok®, FPA and FPAX are all push fit fittings which are quick to assemble once you have cut the conduit to length. FPA & Ultra™ For Ultra™, Flexilok® and FPA fittings simply push the conduit into the end of the fitting with a slight twist until it will go no further. Pull back slightly to ensure the locking teeth mechanism has engaged with the corrugations. The FPAX fitting features a conduit seal to provide an IP rating up to IP69. This simply fits onto the end of the conduit before the fitting is connected to the conduit. To aid assembly moisten this seal. For a one piece fitting with an IP69 rating use Ultra™ (An FPA fitting cannot be uprated to IP69 with the addition of a seal). Pull back slightly to ensure the locking teeth mechanism has engaged with the corrugations. FPAX To remove the Ultra™, FPA or FPAX fittings simply insert a small screwdriver into the screwdriver slot and move the screwdriver handle towards the “off” position. Remove the screwdriver then manually twist the cap further towards the off position - the fitting can then be released from the conduit. Once removed, the fitting can be reused by simply twisting the cap so that the screwdriver slot lines up with the ON position.
