INSTALLATION NOTES FOR FESTOONING SYSTEMS USING FLATFORM CABLES
- Put the cable trolley on the guiding rail and push them together at the starting point. The distance between the bedding surface of two trolleys must be wider than double the thickness of all cables when stacked (packeted).
- Packeting should be started with the smaller cross-section laying on the bedding and built up successively so that the largest cross-section is on top.
- Also be careful to have a symmetrical load distribution on the bedding of each cable trolley.
- For fast moving or multi-packeted systems the larger cross-section cables should have a shorter loop depth than the smaller cross-section cables and be fitted with tow ropes to limit conductor stress and whiplash on acceleration and braking.
- Flat cables should never reach full extension especially in the case of multicore flat cables smaller than 2.5mm² where it is critical due to its low tensile strength. Allow +10% cable for calculations of trolley travel length.
