Chatsworth 40170-005 Pipe Clamp With Bonding Connector

Overview

The Chatsworth 40170-005 is a pipe clamp designed to provide a secure bonding connection for grounding applications. It is specifically engineered for use with pipe sizes ranging from 3.5 to 4 inches (89 mm to 100 mm) in diameter. This clamp ensures a reliable electrical path, critical for safety and system integrity in environments where grounding and bonding are mandated, such as data centers, telecommunications facilities, or industrial installations. Proper bonding prevents static discharge and ensures equipment operates within safe electrical parameters.

Compatibility

This pipe clamp is designed for direct attachment to standard 3.5-inch to 4-inch diameter pipes. It is intended for use with electrical grounding and bonding systems where a secure mechanical and electrical connection to the pipe infrastructure is required. While not specific to any single surveillance or IT equipment brand, it serves as a universal component for ensuring the proper grounding of racks, conduits, or other metallic structures that house sensitive electronic equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a suitable wrench to tighten the clamp securely onto the pipe. Ensure the pipe surface is clean and free of paint or debris to achieve optimal electrical conductivity. The bonding connector lug should be attached to the clamp and then terminated to the grounding conductor according to local electrical codes and system requirements. Torque specifications, if provided by the installation standard, should be followed to ensure a secure, non-damaging fit.
