Product catalog summary
Overview: The DCL-Pro compact conductor line is designed to provide a safe and reliable power supply for mobile machinery, such as cranes, that operate on fixed travel paths. It features innovative technology for continuous operation, ensuring efficient power and control signal transfer along both straight and curved tracks.
Key Features:
  • Rugged Enclosure Profile: The profile is highly resistant to flexing, has a low deadweight, and can accommodate larger copper profiles up to 70 mm². It is compatible with existing DCL systems.
  • Current Collector System: Designed for reliability and long service life, it supports high speeds up to 200 m/min and is suitable for various applications, including storage and retrieval machines.
  • Installation and Compatibility: The system is easy to install with a patented connection system, allowing for quick assembly and compatibility with previous DCL systems.
  • Safety and Maintenance: The narrow opening in the enclosure profile prevents accidental contact, and the system meets fire protection standards. It is easy to service, with sections that can be installed or removed at any point.
Technical Specifications:
  • Enclosure Material: PVC
  • Standard Length: 4,000 mm
  • Number of Conductors: Up to 7
  • Max Voltage: 24 to 690 V AC
  • Permissible Current: Up to 200 A
  • Ambient Temperature: -30 to +70°C
  • Fire Protection: UL94 V-0
  • Minimum Curve Radius: 800 mm
Applications and Options:
  • Versatile Applications: Suitable for a wide range of applications due to the extended range of conductor sizes.
  • Additional Options: Stainless steel-plated copper conductors for harsh conditions and silver-graphite contacts for reliable low-strength signal transfer.
Conclusion: The DCL-Pro compact conductor line offers a robust and flexible solution for power supply to mobile equipment, with features that enhance reliability, safety, and ease of installation and maintenance.
