Series E4.112

Here you can configure your e-chain system® individually. All entries and changes are taking over to the part list which is situated at the end of the page.

Series E4.112 - chain, snap-open along both sides

1. Mounting brackets made of steel
2. Noise absorber, optional –10 dB(A)
3. Gliding surfaces, long travels
4. Chip protection
5. NC without camber
6. High strength and stability thanks to undercut design
7. Locking crossbar with scaling on rear side
8. Straight running due to inner/outer- link design
9. Quiet running due to built-in brake

Series E4.112 is suitable for the following types of applications:

Vertical: Hanging applications ≤ 120 m, standing applications ≤ 6 m
Horizontal: unsupported applications ≤ 6.5 m, gliding applications ≤ 450 m, side-mounted, unsupported applications 3.0 m
Circular motions: Rotating applications possible, may require machining (machining rework is required from 180° rotational angle)

When to use Series E4.112

When a robust e-chain® with inner height of 112 mm is required (e-tube 108 mm inner height)
If an inner width up to 600 mm is required
For unsupported lengths up to 6.5 m and fill weights up to 85 kg/m
For long travels up to 450 m
For very long unsupported lengths and fill weights
Also suitable for side-mounted, standing and hanging applications
If the ability to have multiple options and attachment parts is required

When not to use Series E4.112

When an e-chain® for tough environments with an even higher interior is required
Series 800
When a lightweight version is required
Series 1640

* The required clearance height is HF = H + 100 mm (with 5 kg/m fill weight), this should be taken into account for all application types. Please contact us if you have particularly narrow space conditions.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

A=Moving end, B=Fixed end
Pitch: 143 mm per link
Chain links per m: 7
Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

Unsupported length versus fill weight
X axis: Unsupported length in m FLB/FLG
Y axis: Fill weight in kg/m
Lower scale: Travel S in m
FLB = Unsupported with permissible sag
FLG = Unsupported with straight upper run

Reference example A:
Fill weight = 6 [kg/m]
Unsupported length FLB = 4,5 m
Travel = 9,0 m
