4Preventing Stripping/Clamping of the Collector Head on the Insulation
Profile
To prevent the collector head from being stripped/clamped, the following procedure can also be used for larger radii:
The insulation profile can be slotted in horizontal bends to prevent stripping/clamping of the insulation (2). The slotting
reduces the degree of protection to IP 20 and may only be carried out with a safety extra-low voltage DC 48 V/AC 65 V.
The slotting is not allowed to be carried out with a safety extra-low voltage DC 48 V/AC 65 V. For higher voltages, addi-
tional protective devices (e.g. enclosure or protection by distance) must be provided.
Before inserting into the insulation profile, a layer of packing tape/strapping band (1) must be inserted into the inside of
the insulation profile to prevent the intervention opening in the insulation profile from narrowing. The packing
tape/strapping band (1) must not just from the insulation profile and remains in the conductor rail. The quantity of pack-
ing tape/strapping band (1) depends on the number and length of the curves. So it must always be ordered the double
quantity of packing tape/strapping band per conductor rail. After that push the conductor bar into the insulation profile.

Radii up to min. 3,000 mm are recommended. The limit range is 2,500 mm.
