......there is something in the air........
"The HoverCube from OBO supplies workstations with power, data and compressed air directly from above."
Supply lines can easily be overlooked and therefore create additional accident risks at the workplace. Poorly laid compressed air hoses or extension cables are not only a tripping hazard but also a nuisance during transport and a source of danger which should not be underestimated, especially when great importance is attached to the quick running of work processes.
The power supply for workstations in production areas and workshops often causes problems. The energy sources required, such as power current and compressed air for example, come from central supply points, are transported to the individual workplaces and have to be bundled again on site.
OBO Bettermann has the solution: with the space-saving HoverCubes of the VH and VHF types, disruptive extension cables and hoses are a thing of the past. The compact suspended distributors can be detached from the ceiling and positioned freely in the room. They therefore support safe and efficient working at any workstation.

Ready-made or self-assembled
For a quick and easy purchase, power supply units are available for standard applications, with and without compressed air. However, OBO also offers empty housings for 4 and 8 installation devices in order to meet individual requirements. For a more subtle appearance in seminar and training rooms, for example, the power supply unit can be used in pure white. More information about the OBO HoverCube? Ask your account manager from itsme
