Uni-Pole Insulated Conductors

The insulated conductor U 10 is being used for main and control supply and data transmission (Powercom) for monorail systems. Sliprings and multipole slipring units can be made of it. Capacity: 10 - 100 Amps.

Cat. 2a

U 20 - U 30 - U 40 are single phase, insulated conductors, for indoor or outdoor installation. Compact hangers allow space saving arrangements; from 60 to 1,000 Amps.; with collectors from 15 to 400 Amps. Capacity. Recommended for: Runway conductors for overhead cranes, gantry cranes, shipyard and port cranes, AS/RS systems, automated material handling systems, testing installations, elevators, people mover systems, etc.
Cat. 2b

U 15 - U 25 - U 35 are single phase insulated conductors, for indoor or outdoor installation; from 10 to 860 Amps. Recommended for: Runway conductors for overhead cranes, gantry cranes, shipyard and port cranes, AS/RS systems, monorail systems, elevators, sliding doors, data and signal transmission, amusement rides, high voltage installations, etc.
Cat. 2C

VAHLE insulated conductors are designed in accordance to international safety regulations for a mulitude of power supply applications. They fully meet VDE 0100 and are finger safe to EN 60529 (VDE 0470, part 1, protection code IP 23 for vertical arrangement). They are UL, SAA and SEV approved. The shrouding which envelops the various conductors is an excellent insulator. Therefore our unipole insulated conductors guarantee utmost safety in operation. Any number of conductors can be accomplished by installing various powerails side by side.

Standard rail sections are 6 m long ( U 35: 6,25 m long), shorter lengths to coincide with your runway requirements are available. Factory fabricated or field prepared radius bends can be used for horizontal or vertical curves. The ground conductor is identified by international colour coding. For obvious safety reasons phase and ground collectors are not interchangeable.
