Product catalog summary
Overview: This technical data sheet provides detailed specifications and operational guidelines for the SITEMA Safety Catchers KRP series, which are designed to secure loads in pneumatic or compressive load applications. The document includes information on dimensions, force requirements, pressure specifications, and installation instructions.
Specifications: The Safety Catchers are available in various sizes (KRP 25 to KRP 100), each with specific dimensions and force capacities. The admissible force (M) exerted by the mass to be secured is a critical parameter, with the holding force ranging from 2x to 3.5x M. The necessary pressure to release the clamping is 4 bar, increasing to 6 bar if a spring base is installed. The maximum operating pressure is 10 bar.
Components and Features: The Safety Catchers include proximity switch holders for standard inductive proximity switches, which are not included but available as accessories. The internal volume changes during switching are managed through a port with an air filter, which can be replaced with a pressureless hose in environments with moisture or aggressive media.
Materials: The housing parts are made of stainless steel for KRP 25 and KRP 80, and anodized aluminum for KRP 40 and KRP 56, ensuring durability and resistance to environmental factors.
Installation and Operation: The document provides guidance on the installation and operation of the Safety Catchers, emphasizing the importance of correct attachment and control. Additional practical advice is available in the Operating Manual BA-A12.
Additional Resources: For further information on purpose, function, and choosing the right type, refer to the Technical Information TI-A10. CAD files for dimensions can be downloaded from the SITEMA website.

bold types = preferential sizes, available from stock Subject to modification without prior notice o M is the admissible force the mass to be secured exerts on the Safety Catcher. The holding (braking) force for dry or hydraulic-oil wetted rods is not less than 2 x M but will not exceed 3.5 x M. 0 The necessary pressure to keep the clamping released is 4 bar. In case a spring base is installed, the required pressure for releasing without lifting is 6 bar, see “TechnicalData Sheet TI-A20”. The admissible operating pressure is 10 bar. © Pneumatic operating volume Q Proximity switch holders are provided for standard inductive proximity switches (M12 x 1, nominal switching distance 2 mm, flush mountable, NOC; except KRP 25 and KRP 28: M8 x 1 with a nominal switching distance of 1.5 mm). The dimension T3 indicates how deep the proximity switch immerses in the Safety Catcher measured from the holder's top. KRP 25 to KRP 80: For easier service, the proximity switch holders have a depth stop and are pre-adjusted when delivered from the factory. The switches only need to be inserted to the stop and then clamped. The proximity switches are not included in the standard scope of delivery but are available as accessories. 0 Internal volume changes during switching are compensated at port T. It is plugged with an air filter which, in a dry and clean factory environment, offers sufficient protection against dust etc. If, however, moisture or aggressive media are present, a pressureless hose instead of the filter must be installed to connect the Safety Catcher with clean atmosphere (e.g. a clean pressureless container). 0 The surface of the housing parts consists of stainless steel (for KRP 25, KRP 80) or of aluminum, anodized (for KRP 40, KRP 56).
