ENTASYS Coupler Bracket: ENT-CB1, ENT-CB2, ENT-CB1W, ENT-CB2W
The ENTASYS Coupler Bracket, designated
ENT-CB, is used to attach two ENTASYS columns
together. Multiple Coupler Brackets may be used to
connect up to five columns together. The Coupler
Brackets must be attached to the "T" Mounting
Bracket from each of the ENTASYS columns that are
to be connected together as shown in Figure 8.
Connecting the ENTASYS enclosures to-
gether is the first step required when constructing mul-
tiple column arrays regardless of the other brackets
that will be used to mount or suspend them.
Instructions for Attachment
1. Remove the "T" Mounting Brackets from each EN-
TASYS column to be connected together. See
Figure 4 for instructions on this removal.
2. Bolt the Coupler Bracket to the two "T" Mounting
Brackets as shown in Figure 8 using the M6 x
20mm bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and nuts
included with the Coupler Bracket. Note that the
"T" Mounting Brackets should lay inside the "U"
shape profile of the Coupler Bracket. Verify that
the nuts and bolts are securely tightened. Failure
to do this may result in unsafe construction of the
array.
3. If more than two ENTASYS columns are to be
connected together, repeat Step 2 as necessary
for connecting up to five "T" Mounting Brackets
together.
4. Stack the ENTASYS columns together in the re-
quired order for the array to be constructed. This
may be done vertically by stacking them on top of
each other, or horizontally by laying them on the
ground.
5. Align the tabs on the "T" Mounting Brackets with
the larger opening in the slot on the back of each
ENTASYS enclosure. Insert the "T" Mounting
Bracket and Coupler Bracket assembly into the
slot in the enclosure and slide the "T" Mounting
Bracket and Coupler Bracket assembly up into
position in the enclosure slot. This is done in a
similar manner as reattaching a single "T" Mount-
ing Bracket (see Figure 4).
6. Make sure the Bottom Fitting is securely fastened to the bottom of the "T" Mounting Bracket and
Coupler Bracket assembly with its M6 Set Screw. This is critical as the entire weight of the array
must be supported by this single Bottom Fitting.
7. Tighten all eight of the M4 Set Screws in each ENTASYS enclosure to secure it to its "T" Mounting Bracket
(see Figure 4).
