Festool EAA CT 26/36/48 Energy Box Module

Overview

Festool EAA CT 26/36/48 Energy Box Module At a Glance: Genuine Festool interface module for connecting compatible CT 26, CT 36 and CT 48 E mobile dust extractors manufactured up to 2024 with a Festool EAA energy box or extraction boom arm. The module provides the required connection point for the EAA/ASA control cable and integrates the mobile extractor into a stationary or suspended Festool workplace system. The Festool EAA CT 26/36/48 is a dedicated connection module for integrating compatible Festool CT mobile dust extractors with an EAA energy box or Festool extraction boom arm. Installed in the appropriate module position on a CT 26, CT 36 or CT 48 E-series extractor, it provides the control-cable interface required between the mobile extractor and the workplace extraction system. This allows the extractor to form part of a more organised professional workstation in which extraction, power-tool connections and hoses can be routed through an energy box or overhead boom-arm installation rather than directly around the floor-level extractor. Festool's current specification identifies order number 496143 for CT 26/36/48 E extractors manufactured up to 2024 . It is a specialised system component intended for workshops using Festool's EAA or ASA workplace infrastructure rather than a general-purpose accessory for every CT extractor. The link between the CT extractor and the EAA workplace system The EAA CT 26/36/48 module provides the dedicated interface needed to connect the control cable from a Festool energy box or boom arm to the compatible mobile dust extractor. Once installed, the CT can be incorporated into the EAA/ASA extraction arrangement instead of operating only as a stand-alone mobile extractor. Product highlights • Dedicated Festool system module: Designed specifically for integration of CT mobile dust extractors with an EAA energy box or extraction boom arm. • For CT 26/36/48 E: Current Festool specification covers compatible E-series machines manufactured up to 2024. • Control-cable interface: Provides the connection point required for the EAA or ASA control cable. • Workplace integration: Allows a mobile CT extractor to become part of a more permanent Festool workshop extraction system. • Useful with overhead extraction: Designed for installations using Festool boom arms where hoses and services are routed above the work area. • Compatible with energy-box installations: Enables connection between the extractor and Festool EAA energy-box systems. • Cleaner workstation organisation: Supports organised routing of extraction equipment in professional workshop environments. • Genuine Festool component: Correct original interface for the specified CT and EAA/ASA system generation. Product Compatibility • Festool CT 26 E: Compatible machines manufactured up to 2024. • Festool CT 36 E: Compatible machines manufactured up to 2024. • Festool CT 48 E: Compatible machines manufactured up to 2024. • Festool EAA energy box systems: For establishing the control connection between the energy box and CT extractor. • Festool extraction boom arms / ASA systems: For connection of the boom-arm workplace system to the compatible CT extractor. Important compatibility note: Festool's current product information specifies the EAA CT 26/36/48 module for CT 26/36/48 E mobile dust extractors manufactured up to 2024 . Do not assume compatibility with the newer CT 26/36/48 EI generation introduced from 2025; confirm the exact extractor model and year before ordering. LE models: Earlier Festool documentation notes that this retrofit module is not required on applicable CTL/CTM 36/48 LE versions because the corresponding connection was already fitted to those machines.
