B-LINE 4A-12-VTU12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a vertical tee up fitting do in a cable tray run?
A vertical tee up joins three tray runs where a straight run needs a branch heading upward. The Eaton B-Line 4A-12-VTU12 is the Series 2-5 vertical tee up built for 12 inch wide, 4 inch deep aluminum tray, with a 12 inch bend radius on the vertical leg. If your branch needs to drop instead of rise, a vertical tee up is the wrong fitting.
2) How much space do I need to allow for this vertical tee in the run?
Allow 15 inches of length for the fitting itself, plus clearance for the 12 inch radius vertical bend as it turns up. Tight ceiling or overhead obstructions are the usual problem: a 12 inch radius needs real room above the horizontal run before the branch levels off.
3) Is this cable tray tee aluminum or steel, and does that matter for my install?
Aluminum. That keeps the fitting light for overhead work and suits damp or corrosive areas better than plain painted steel. It also means you should keep bonding and grounding practice consistent with the rest of an aluminum tray system rather than mixing metals at the joint.
4) What is the exact part number to order this 12 inch vertical tee up?
Order Eaton B-Line part 4A-12-VTU12. The number reads out as 4 inch deep aluminum, 12 inch tray width, vertical tee up with a 12 inch radius, which is how the adjacent fittings in the series are distinguished from each other.
5) How heavy is the B-Line 4A-12-VTU12 vertical tee for overhead handling?
12.75 lb. Light enough for one electrician to set on a lift, though a vertical tee wants support on all three legs close to the fitting once the tray is loaded.
6) Does this Eaton B-Line tray fitting carry any certification marking?
It carries the CE marking. That is the certification held on record for the 4A-12-VTU12 aluminum vertical tee up.
