Dimensioning of 90-degree cable tray elbows

90-degree cable tray elbows come in various standard radii and side rail widths, typically ranging from 75 mm to 600 mm radius and 1 1/8" to 2 3/8" side rail widths depending on NEMA class and tray type.

Standard Radii

  • Small to standard elbows: 75 mm, 150 mm, 300 mm (diagonal or curve corners) for compact installations .
  • Medium to large elbows: 12", 24", 36" radius (approximately 300 mm, 600 mm, 900 mm) for horizontal routing .
  • Extra-large elbows: 600 mm radius for heavy-duty or large cable trays .

Side Rail Widths and Classes

  • Class 1: 1 1/8" wide side rail flanges, 4-hole splice plates, compatible with NEMA Classes 12B and 12C .
  • Class 2: 2" wide side rail flanges, 4-hole splice plates, compatible with NEMA Classes 20A, 20B, 20C .
  • Class 3: 2 3/8" wide side rail flanges, 8-hole splice plates, for NEMA Classes exceeding 20C .
  • Class 4: 2 3/4" wide side rail flanges, 8-hole heavy-duty splice plates, for 8" high cable tray systems .

Edge Heights and Tray Widths

  • Common edge heights: 85 mm for steel elbows .
  • Tray widths: 102 mm, 202 mm, 302 mm, 402 mm, 502 mm, 602 mm, depending on cable load and installation requirements .

Material and Finish

  • Steel elbows: Pre-galvanized or hot-dip galvanized according to DIN EN 10346 or DIN EN ISO 1461 .
  • GRP elbows: Glass fiber reinforced polyester, often with integrated perforated connector plates, suitable for corrosive environments .

Summary

When selecting a 90-degree cable tray elbow, consider:

  1. Radius: Small (75–150 mm) for tight spaces, large (300–600 mm) for smooth cable bends.
  2. Side rail width: Matches NEMA class of the tray.
  3. Edge height and tray width: Ensures proper cable support.
  4. Material: Steel for general use, GRP for corrosion resistance. These dimensions ensure proper cable management, minimize stress on cables, and maintain compliance with NEMA standards.
