Chatsworth 40170-003 Pipe Clamp With Bonding Connector

Overview

The Chatsworth 40170-003 is a pipe clamp designed to provide a secure bonding connection for grounding sensitive electronic equipment, such as surveillance cameras or network devices, to existing pipe infrastructure. This clamp is essential for protecting equipment from static discharge and electrical surges, particularly in outdoor or industrial environments where grounding is critical. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance and long-term durability. The 40170-003 is specifically engineered for use with pipe sizes ranging from 1.5 inches to 2 inches (38 mm to 50 mm), offering a precise fit for common conduit and structural pipes.

Compatibility

This pipe clamp is designed for universal compatibility with standard 1.5-inch to 2-inch (38 mm to 50 mm) diameter pipes. It is suitable for grounding applications involving various types of surveillance equipment, network hardware, and electrical conduits where a secure bonding point is required. It is compatible with grounding conductors typically used in low-voltage and high-voltage installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a suitable wrench to tighten the clamp onto the pipe and secure the bonding conductor. Ensure the pipe surface is clean and free of paint or corrosion for optimal electrical contact. Torque specifications for the clamp screws should be followed to ensure a secure connection without damaging the pipe or clamp. The bonding conductor must be properly sized and terminated according to local electrical codes and equipment requirements.
