Hercule tested and approved !
Our “new” Hercule ladder with amended rungs and beams underwent stringent testing.
We are one of the first companies to get a cable ladder tested with short circuit cleats on various amperages. CMP Patriot, Sovereign, Saturn and Valiant cable cleats tested at selected fault levels ranging from 90 to 190 kA.
Customers now have the security to use these clamps knowing that not only the clamp itself but also the containment withstands these forces. If you’re planning your next project, speak with us—or contact CMP directly—to discuss your short-circuit requirements.
You can also use the their cleat selector on cmp-products.com to identify the right solution for your application.
We also tested the new rungs for transverse deflection on a 150x1000mm Hercule ladder in our new Niedax laboratory facility in Germany. While the deflection with full cable load at 300kg is well within the specification the breaking point was reached at 915kg !
Trusted in France and Ireland since the early 1990’ties the Hercule is used nowadays all over mainland Europe and Scandinavia on major projects. It also has one of the shortest lead times within the industry.
