Series E16

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 E 16 - to be filled in the outer radius

1. Limited torsion tolerance
2. Small pitch for low-noise and smooth operation
3. Very easy to fill - cables only have to be pushed in
4. Cable-friendly interior
5. “E” Series features split crossbar along the outer radius
6. Patented push button principle holds the links together
7. Mounting bracket with integrated strain relief
8. “Z” Series features split crossbar along the inner radius

Inner widths Bi: 0.91 up to 3.94 (23 - 100 mm)
Bending radii R: 2.36, 2.95, 3.94 (60, 75, 100 mm)
Pitch: 1.2 (30.5 mm) per link = 11 links/ft (33/m)

When to use Series E 16

If filling is required without opening and closing
If price is an issue
If quiet operation is required

When not to use Series E 16

If a long unsupported length is required
Series 27
If an Energy Chain with a high locking crossbar is needed
Series 27

* The required installation clearance is HF = H + 0.59 (15 mm) (in the case of 0.2 lbs/ft (0.3 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: 1.2 (30.5 mm) per link
Links per ft: 11 (33/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
