V.LOCK
Kinetics Noise Control
13 48 00 Sound, Vibration, and Seismic Control
V.LOCK seismic cable restraint connector makes suspending services faster, easier, and more cost-effective. V.LOCK quickly and easily fastens cables used in the seismic restraint of piping, duct, electrical cable trays, and suspended equipment.
Used in pairs, they help to minimize damage during a seismic event by providing a load path between the building and the retrained component, ensuring they move in tandem.
Bracing is required on both primary axes for all restrained systems. Spacing is determined by the building code and specifying engineer. Cable restraints are required for isolated systems as rigid restraints such as struts will short-circuit the isolation.
