Casinos require security…strength…flexibility…ceiling integrity. Only H.H. Robertson Cellular FloorSystems meet every criteria.

Ideally, wire distribution systems usedto provide reliable electrical service toslot machines and other gaming devicesmust meet the following criteria:

• Able to withstand the extremelyheavy wheel loads of “coin carts.”(HHR testing showed a failure loadof 3,180 pounds over an unactivatedpreset outlet and a failure load of5,000 pounds over the 3/8"-thick steelcover plate.)

• Have sufficient design flexibilityto provide services anywhere on thegaming floor without compromisingdesired positioning. (Robertsoncellular systems provide outlets onas little as two-foot increments.)

Why cellular makes good sense for casino wiring.

FOR CASINOS

• Able to form and reinforce theconcrete pour, eliminating the needfor a separate structural slab.

• Maintain ceiling integrity—theplenum and tile need never beviolated. Security and surveillancesystems are completely separatefrom gaming services.

• Provide quick and easy activationand abandonment of individual outletswithout interfering with ongoingcasino operations.

ONLY CELLULAR FLOORWIRE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMSMEET ALL THESE CRITERIA.

Advantages vs. Underfloor Duct• Composite deck reinforces the

slab, no re-bars required• Open top trench/lay-in wiring• No hi-chairs required• Single activation for power

and data services• Single concrete pour• Eliminates concrete placement,

vibration and honeycombingunder cells

• Less costly to purchase andinstall than underfloor duct

• Twice the wiring space ofstandard underfloor duct

Every HHR cellular system meets the critical criteria for casino applicationsas well as providing:

• the ultimate in security—every high and low voltage cable is completelyencased in steel cells.

• total EMI and RF shielding. There’s not a chance of change, alterationor detection of the signals in the cables. They’re totally protected in bothtrench header and cells.

• three services are standard—separated power, telephone and datacompartments are instantly available at every activation.

• complete compatibility with fiber optic cabling as well as all conventionalwiring schemes.

• no change to building height, presets require no core drilling andnon-plenum rated wire is suitable for all applications.

Quality cellular floor and H. H. Robertson are synonymous. They'refully code compliant and will provide worry-free operation.

All Robertson systems are UL-approved and fully complywith the National Electrical Code.

No one else even comes close toH.H. Robertson in experience, design abilityand manufacturing capabilities.

FOR CASINOS

Don’t assume that all wire distribution systems are safe simply because theyare “code approved.” Many systems that expose plastic covered cabling to thefire will allow those cables to burn and produce toxic smoke. This danger isnot addressed by the fire codes.

Access floor plenum spaces can be particularly hazardous if a fire occurswithin this space. Smoke from burning cables could incapacitate people withina few seconds.

Cellular floor systems with underside fireproofing protect plastic-coveredcables to the highest levels possible. Even non-plenum cables can be usedsafely within the cells and trench headers. There has never been a fire ina cellular floor system!

FIRE SAFETY… It has to be your numberone design consideration.
