Technical Handbook design considerations, tips and helpful information
b.) Use vertical cavity dividers for best overall operating results: to keep unlike components apart to keep unlike cable or hose jacket materials apart when cable or hose outside diameters are less than 60% of the selected or available inner cavity total height (< 60% of h i ) individual flat cables must be kept separated, in a private compartment to prevent cable or hose tangling and damage to aid in maintaining the best left to right symmetrical weight distribution and balance of the carrier cavity contents maximum cavity fill should be less than or equal to 60% of cavity area if and when using horizontal shelving, you must not exceed the max. cavity fill criteria herein stated for each cavity created
good
not recommended
max. cavity fill < 0.6 x cavity area
c.) If in accordance with the aforementioned recommendations for your particular application (step 2b), adding vertical dividers is required, add to the total value of ∑ ALL Ø (step 2a) the total space required for all vertical cavity dividers ( ∑ div ) you deem necessary to best separate cables and hoses from one another (remember not all carrier types have dividers available, choose carefully). c1.) Also determine if dividers should be installed at interval of every link, every 2nd, every 3rd or every 4th link / frame stay throughout the entire carrier system. Every 2nd link is used as our default interval. A maximum divider interval of every ½ meter through the entire length of the carrier is recommended. c2.) If the resulting B i is wider than the space available, stacking certain cables and/or hoses is possible when using horizontal shelving components seen in the KabelSchlepp catalog. All design rules and safety factors still apply. Please consult factory. ■ Make note of the total width ( B i ) value required for your application
