INSTALLATION COLUMN
CENTRAL ACCESS POINT FOR ALL ROOM FUNCTIONS
It is important to move with the times. This applies in particular to digitization in the education sector. The gesis® installation column is the link for the electrical installation and the solution to all your modern class room automation needs.
In the future, all room and digital functions will be realized per room or classroom with only one column as an access point. The column offers the necessary installation space for automation devices ranging from simple light and blind control to efficient room temperature control, air quality and CO2 measurement. The decentralized nature saves space and additional installation effort. In combination with our pluggable installation, a fast and error-free installation - is created. Rely on the gesis® system from the world market leader for pluggable electrical installations.
FUNCTIONS OF THE INSTALLATION COLOUMN
LIGHTING
The lighting can be controlled via the automation device in the column and the control units mounted in the front. With the components of the gesis® system the entire lighting system can be wired quickly and easily.
SWITCHES, SOCKETS
Both the column’s sockets and the infrastructure cabling, such as the jumpering channel or various switching elements in the room, are centrally and securely integrated via the column.
MULTIMEDIA
A quick and stable internet connection is realized by means of fiber-optic to copper converter solutions or switches. Other multimedia connections can also be integrated, e.g. SAT-TV, USB, HDMI.
SUNSHADE
The protection from the sun can be operated via the control panel on the column, or automated with smart room automation.
HEATING, VENTILATION, AIR CONDITIONING
Energy-efficient room climate at the touch of a button – adapted to individual needs. All the necessary operating and automation devices can be integrated into the installation column.
ALARM SYSTEMS
Integrated alarm systems can help assess emergency situations correctly, saving and protecting lives.
APPLICATIONS
ADVANTAGES OF THE INSTALLATION COLUMN
- Time saving: Coordinated delivery of bodies and distribution panels to the appropriate construction stage. Thanks to the high degree of prefabrication and the pluggable installation, preparatory work such as cable pulling, can be done in advance and the installation column is connected by plug&play.
- Flexible: The design allows for customization.
- Decentralization: As a central access point in the classroom, only the installation column is supplied by the building technology. Decentralized distribution takes place in the installation column, saving time and money.
- Quality: The body of the installation column is made in carpenter quality. The distribution panels are produced and tested according to industry standards.
- Future-proof: Thanks to the large installation space as well as a distribution panel that offers space for up to 126 DUs depending on the variant, there is sufficient installation space for future adaptations and expansion.
- Safety: Due to different user levels and attached touch protection, the installation column provides protection against tampering and electric shock.

The installation column can be completely integrated into the pluggable electrical installation via a flange plate on the distribution panel!
Features of the surface mounting:
- No constructional measures necessary for mounting the installation column
- Wooden material back wall
- Fastening through the back wall of the column
- Room height compensation with adjustable base and ceiling connection element.
- Base adjustable in steps with fine adjustment for exactly vertical mounting
Features of the flush mounting:
- For the flush-mounted variant, a distinction is made between partially recessed and flush-mounted
- Partially recessed (min. 105 mm recessed) or flush-mounted (195 mm recessed) possible
- Suitable installation box in the product range
- Cable entry from below and above
- Cleaning cover for correct diagonal
- Independent of the room height
- Side or rear wall mounting of the column in the installation box
GESIS® INSTALLATION COLUMN COMFORT
The Comfort installation column offers several enhancements. For example, the swivelling corpus contributes to easier and faster assembly - the swivelling direction can be selected.
Door elements that can be easily opened with the push-to-open function or individually designed cut-outs provide easy access to switches, sockets and media connections. Internal taps are protected by an access authorisation. In this way, individual elements can be securely locked.
The column also offers space for a 5-7 row distribution panel, which is mounted with a cover.
The installation column can be completely integrated into the pluggable electrical installation via a flange plate on the distribution panel!
Features of the surface mounting:
- No constructional measures necessary for mounting the installation column
- Fastening through the back wall of the column
- Ceiling compensation infinitely variable
- Base adjustable in steps with fine adjustment for exactly vertical mounting
- Rear wall made of galvanized sheet steel powder-coated

ROOM AUTOMATION WITH THE GESIS® PLUG & PLAY INSTALLATION.
New energy concepts for public buildings are in demand. Anyone who wants to make energy-efficient and digital educational buildings a reality must adopt the right course now.
Legislators and developer are rightly demanding that planners and operators of new buildings and retrofit measures significantly increase the energy efficiency of buildings, with the effect of achieving climate targets and saving costs and resources at the same time.The transition to smart buildings requires flexible, communications-capable systems and products. Public buildings in particular, such as schools, hospitals, or administration buildings, have to be renovated and brought up to date technologically on a regular basis.
Short timescales and tight completion schedules are often a problem for electrical installers on site.
With our gesis® installation column, building owners and operators can rely on well-prepared, quick, safe, documented, and, above all, error-free installation and room automation according to the plug & play principle – easy to handle and maintain, and flexible to accommodate future changes to the building.
