DOTcard Core Idents

Product Overview

The DOTcard2130 two-part sleeve and core ident system is probably the most popular way of identifying instrumentation wiring across the world today.

The system is made up of a transparent sleeve, the DOTsleeve, which has one recess for the wire / cable and one recess for the DOTcard2130 core ident. No more having to disconnect, reconnect and retest the circuit to change a heatshrink label or other type of marker, simply slide the old label out of the DOTsleeve then slide the new label in.

The DOTcard System can print up to 7,200 of the DOTcard2130 core idents per hour and uses the same thermal transfer DOTcard System Printer and DOTlabel Software as which prints the full range of DOT cable markers. The software enables you to import information direct from Word and Excel, saving enormous amounts of labour time and money in reduced production times.

 

The DOTcard2130 core identification system has numerous features and benefits such as:

• Thermal printer producing up to 7,200 core idents per hour
• Easy to use DOTlabel Software, which can import information direct from Word & Excel
• Easy to install ‘slide in and break off’ DOTcard2130 and DOTsleeve system
• Clear, easy to read text or numbers, even on small cores
• No heat gun required
• Label can be changed even after termination
• The DOTcard2130 core idents are ex-stock and available for immediate despatch

Product Overview

The transparent DOTsleeve has two recesses, one for the wire / cable and one for the label. The DOTcard2130 core identification system has two distinct advantages over other systems available on the market today. The first being that should the core ident require changing after the wire has been connected, simply slide the old label out before sliding the new one in. There’s no need to disconnect, reconnect and retest the circuit.

The second advantage is that should the information to be printed onto the DOTcard2130 core idents not be available at the time the Engineers are ready to connect the wires and test the circuit, the Engineers can simply slide the DOTsleeves into place, connect the wires and test the circuit and the printed core ident can be slid into the DOTsleeve as and when the information becomes available. This cannot be done if a heatshrink labelling system is being used.

Both the DOTsleeve21 and the DOTsleeve30 are available in a range of core diameters (see table below) and are manufactured from a flexible PVC for ease of installation. All sizes of the DOTsleeves are ex-stock and available for immediate despatch.
