Unsupported length versus fill weight
X axis: Unsupported length in m FLB/FLG
Y axis: Fill weight in kg/m
Lower scale: Travel S in m
FLB = Unsupported with permissible sag
FLG = Unsupported with straight upper run
Reference example A:
Fill weight = 0,75 [kg/m]
Unsupported length FLB = 0,78 m
Travel = 1,55 m
The diagrams for unsupported lengths
apply to standard e-chains® in
igumid GLW material. The values can
also be used for assessing
e-chain® applications in ESD special material.
If the respective maximum unsupported length exceeds 80%,
the suitability of the e-chain® should be verified by a practice-oriented test.
