Series 1400

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 1400 - snap-open along inner radius

1. Opening system for rapid opening, either from the right or the left
2. Double stop dog for long unsupported length
3. Crossbars with high locking range
4. Series 1400 snap-open on both sides along inner radius
5. Series 1500 snap-open on both sides along outer radius
6./7. Series 1450 half Energy Tube snap-open on both sides along inner radius
8. Tried-and-tested mounting bracket
9. Modular interior separation
10. Easy assembly by optimized pin
11. Integrated strain relief possible
12. Also available as ESD version

Inner widths Bi: 0.59 up to 4.92 (15 - 125 mm)
Bending radii R: 1.38 up to 7.09 (35 - 180 mm)
Pitch: 1.31 (33.3 mm) per link = 10 links/ft (30/m)

When to use Series 1400

If snap-open accessibility along the inner or outer radius is required
If intergrated strain relief at the mounting point is required
If half Energy Tube is required Series 1450
If long service life is required
If easy installation is required

When not to use Series 1400

If the application is very simple
Easy Chain®, Series E14

* The required installation clearance is HF = H + 0.98 (25 mm) (in the case of 0.34 lbs/ft (0.5 kg/m) additional load) If extremely restricted space is available, please consult us.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

Pitch: 1.31 (33.3 mm) per link
Links per ft: 10 (30/m)
Chain length = S/2 + K
A = Moving end
B = Fixed end

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
