Series 08

Here you can configure your Energy Chain System® individually. All entries will be copied to the Bill of Materials shown at the bottom of this page.

Series 08 E2 'micro'

1. Small pitch for very quiet operation
2. High torsional rigidity
3. Mounting brackets with strain relief options
4. One-piece, non snap-open Energy Chain®
5. Very lightweight - low price
6. Dirt repellant exterior

Inner widths Bi: 0.39 up to 1.97 (10 - 50 mm)
Bending radii R: 0.98, 1.1, 1.9 (25, 28, 38, 48 mm)
Pitch: 0.79 (20 mm) per link = 16 links/ft (50/m)

When to use Series 08

If quiet operation is required
If cost is a factor
If connection options are required (Quicksnap, Quickfix, etc.)
If high torsional rigidity is required

When not to use Series 08

If snap-open links are required
Series 09 “Zipper”
If quick insertion of cables with preassembled connectors is required
Series E08 E-Z Chain

* The required installation clearance is HF = H + 0.39 (10 mm) (in the case of 0.13 lbs/ft (0.2 kg/m) additional load) If extremely restricted space is available, please consult us.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

A=Moving End , B=Fixed End
Pitch: 0.79 (20 mm) per link
Links per ft: 16 (50/m)
Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

Dependency of the unsupported length on the additional load
X axis: Unsupported length in ft FLB/FLG
Y axis: Additional load in lbs/ft
Lower scale: Length of travel S in ft
FLB = unsupported with permissible sag
FLG = unsupported with straight upper run
