Detas SpA - DetasUltra Division

Detas SpA introduces DetasUltra, the new division of Detas Automazione, characterized by the motto "Solutions around the cable," born in 2019 after a very long experience in cable management technology in switchboards and in electrical and electronic equipment in general.

DetasUltra is engaged in the production and marketing of components primarily intended for industrial automation on the machine edge and in the control cabinet.

Thus was born the DES (Detas Entry System) solution: a wide range of components dedicated to those who use simple and headed cables.

Designed, engineered and patented entirely in Italy, designed to simplify the use of cables, especially with connectors, in electrical panels and electrical equipment by improving reference performance (water tightness, strain relief, etc.) and  minimizing the models quantity to cut costs.

The stages of research and development

The focal points around which all phases of R&D were focused are:

• Improved benchmark performance, such as water tightness, tear resistance.
• Reducing the number of models to minimize stock
• Cost reduction
• Product durability and robustness even under extreme conditions
• Simplicity and speed of assembly

The Detasultra range is divided into four main product groups:

• Group 1: caqble entry systems for headed and unheaded cables;
• Group 2: Cable entry plates for unheaded cables;
• Group 3: Strain relief cable fixing modules;
• Group 4: Shielding clamps and braids for ground connection.

The divisible frames of the DES series, together with the openable or pierceable inserts of the SPP/SPG series, together form an innovative wall-crossing system.

The absence of internal dividers allows a wide variety of configurations for the routing of cables with diameters from 2 to 35mm: the inserts (cable grommets) are free to slide inside the frame. The cable installer has the opportunity to choose the best configuration directly during assembly. The system is also suitable for routing corrugated tubes, pneumatic connections, sensors, etc.

Products in the DES family are made of polypropylene reinforced with chemically bonded glass fiber, designed specifically for applications requiring high stiffness, mechanical strength even at high temperatures and resistance to detergents and chemicals, such as precisely food applications. The chemical bond between the polypropylene matrix and the reinforcement consisting of glass fiber ensures absolute safety, preventing the dispersion of particles into the environment and contamination of food.

DES frames use the standard multipole connector openings, from which they take their name. DES 24 for example uses the 24-pin connector opening and, thanks to multi-hole grommets, allows up to 40 cables to pass through the wall in a very small space.

IP66 protection and strain relief according to EN62444 is achieved for all available grommet combinations. The system meets UL94V0 class self-extinguishing for both the frame and the gray and black grommets and withstands installation temperatures from -40 to +155°C (static).

All locking screws are made of SS304 stainless steel. For greater mounting flexibility, quick couplings and solutions designed to prevent dirt accumulation in the cavities are also available. The rear gasket is co-molded into the frame, ensuring faster assembly times.

Detasultra products that are used for cables with and without connectors are successfully used in many industrial and robotics fields and also in parallel fields, particularly in:
