4 Mounting
4.1 Mounting of electrical connection 1
1. Align socket1 to match plug.
2. Connect socket1 to the plug.
3. Tighten the screw-type lock of the socket1. Tightening torque:
0.4Nm±55%
4.2 Mounting of electrical connection 2
1. Align the plug2 to match the socket.
2. Insert the plug2 into the socket.
3. Tighten the screw-type lock of the plug2. Tightening torque: 0.4Nm±55%
4.3 Wiring
Feature Cable characteristic Wiring
-E- Suitable for energy chains In energy chain or flexible
Tab. 2 Wiring
4.4 Mounting in energy chain
1. Lay the chain out lengthwise.
2. Place the cables in the chain, making sure they are not twisted.
3. Separate cables from each other using separators/drill holes.
4. Do not connect cables together.
Fig. 2
5. Maintain spaceX. X>10% of the cable diameterD.
If the chain is suspended vertically: increase the spaceX.
Fig. 3
6. Align chain in the operating position:
– Make sure that the radius is greater than the bending radius R of the
cables.
– Cables can move freely in the bending radiusKR of the energy chain.
ÄCables are not forced through the chain.
7. Mount the energy chain ècorresponding instructions.
8. Fasten cables:
– At both ends of the chain in case of short energy chains
– Only at the driver end in the case of long, sliding energy chains
Fig. 4
9. Do not bend cables all the way to the fastening point.
ÄMounting spaceA between the fastening point and bending movement is
observed.
NOTICE!
Damage to cables if the chain breaks.
• Replace cables after a chain break.
NOTICE!
Malfunction and material damage due to vertically suspended cables.
The cables stretch.
• Regularly check the length of the cables.
• Readjust the cables if required.
