BT3 Cable Tray from Blitz Systems is a cable containment tray for commercial and light industrial electrical and data installations. It comes in 150, 300, 450 and 600 mm widths and 3 m lengths, in Pre-Galvanised and ProGal 360 finishes. This listing gives the load capacity, deflection, weight and product code at support spans of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 m, taken from the manufacturer's data sheet, and compares your cable load with the tabulated capacity.

This listing is not verified by the manufacturer. It is the user's responsibility to review the product brochures and technical notes related to the information presented in this listing and ensure alignment with these resources. If you identify any inconsistencies, errors, or intellectual property issues, please email us at [email protected].

Utilisation of load capacity (%)

U = 1

Load capacity, deflection, weight and product code for Blitz Systems BT3 cable tray at the support spans tabulated on the manufacturer's data sheet. Select the tray width, support span and span condition. Enter a cable load to compare it with the load capacity.

Deflection at load capacity

The tabulated deflection applies to continuous spans. For a single span the data sheet directs that it is multiplied by 2.5.

Not Available

Utilisation of load capacity

Cable load as a percentage of the tabulated load capacity at the selected span.

Not Available

Basis and limits

Source: Blitz Systems BT3 Cable Tray data sheet (copyright 2025). All values are as printed on that sheet.
Load and deflection values were obtained by the manufacturer through testing to NEMA VE 1-2009. Load capacities were determined using single-span testing.
Tabulated deflections are for continuous spans. For single-span installations the data sheet says to multiply the listed values by 2.5.
The data sheet gives one load and deflection table for the BT3 range. It is applied here to all four tray widths.
Only the tabulated spans of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 m are offered. Values are not interpolated or extrapolated to other spans.
The utilisation compares the cable load entered with the load capacity. The data sheet does not say whether the weight of the tray is included in the load capacity.
Not covered: supports, hangers, threaded rod and fixings; tray joints and accessories; point loads; fire-rated installations; BT5 tray.
Pre-Galvanised is listed for internal or protected environments and ProGal 360 for marine or exposed environments. The data sheet lists the tray for internal installations.
Preliminary selection only. Confirm the final design with Blitz Systems.

Blitz BT3 Cable Tray BT3 is a cable containment tray from Blitz Systems for commercial and light industrial electrical projects. It is used for electrical and data cable containment and for pipe containment, and is supported by a range of installation accessories. What this listing does Select the tray width, support span and span condition to see:

the load capacity at that span, in kg/m
the deflection at load capacity, in mm
the product code and the weight of a 3 m length

Enter a cable load to see it as a percentage of the load capacity, with a check that shows whether it is within or exceeds the capacity. Product range

Widths: 150, 300, 450 and 600 mm
Length: 3 m
Cable laying depth: 43 mm (50 mm overall)
Product codes: FCS-BT3150, FCS-BT3300, FCS-BT3450 and FCS-BT3600
Finishes: Pre-Galvanised for internal or protected environments, and ProGal 360 for marine or exposed environments, both to AS 1397:2001

The listing also shows the BT3 accessories: rise link plate, joiner, tee-cross bracket, radius plate, bolt and nut set, hold down plate and STUDBITE screws. Basis of the data All values are as printed on the Blitz Systems BT3 Cable Tray data sheet. Blitz Systems states that the load and deflection values were obtained through testing in an accredited facility to NEMA VE 1-2009, with load capacities determined by single-span testing. The tabulated deflections are for continuous spans. For a single span the data sheet says to multiply the listed deflection by 2.5, and the listing does this when you select a single span. Limits

Only the tabulated spans of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 3.0 m are offered. Values are not interpolated or extrapolated to other spans.
The data sheet gives one load and deflection table for the BT3 range. It is applied here to all four widths.
The cable load is compared with the load capacity as tabulated. The data sheet does not say whether the weight of the tray is included.
Supports, hangers, threaded rod, fixings, tray joints, point loads and fire-rated installations are not covered.
