Series 14340

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 14340 - chain openable from both sides with crossbars every other link

1. Crossbars of the e-chain® can be removed from both sides
2. Wide plastic crossbars – cable-friendly
3. Optimised ratio of inner dimensions to outer dimensions
4. Lateral gliding surfaces for side-mounted operation
5. Strain relief elements can be integrated into the mounting bracket
6. Locking or pivoting mounting brackets available
7. KMA mounting brackets, with option to fasten from any side
8. Undercut design ensures greater stability
9. Wide variety of forms of interior separation
10. Alternative available with Reverse Bend Radius (RBR)!

Series 14340 is suitable for the following types of applications:

Vertical: Hanging applications ≤ 80 m
Horizontal: Unsupported applications ≤ 4 m, gliding applications ≤ 150 m
Circular movement: Rotating applications possible, may require machining (machining rework is required from 180° rotation angle)

When to use Series 14340

If a weight and price reduction can be accompanied by a compromise in stability.
If an e-chain®/e-tube with a 62mm inner height is required
If an inner width up to 400mm is required
For unsupported lengths up to 4.0m and fill weights up to 40kg/m
For travel lengths up to 150m
Also suitable for side-mounted, standing and hanging applications

When not to use Series 14340

When the e-chain® needs to be extremely quiet (≤46 dB(A)) and low-vibration
Series E6.62,
If large unsupported lengths are required for side-mounted uses
Series H4.56
When longer unsupported lengths and longer travel distances are required
Series H4.56
When high fill weights and/or rigid cables or hoses are required
Series 14140
When swarf protection is required
Series 18840

* The required clearance height is HF = H + 50 mm (at 2 kg/m fill weight), which should be observed in all types of applications. Please contact us if you have particularly confined space requirements.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

A=moving end, B=fixed end
Pitch: 91mm per link
Chain links per m: 11
Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

The unsupported length depends on 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 = 10 [kg/m]
unsupported length FLB = 2.75 m
travel = 5.5 m
