Installation overview

 

Note:

The following work steps describe how the trolley is to be installed on an I-beam which is not freely accessible at the front and rear (welded end plate, building wall etc.).

If one of the two ends of the I-beam is freely accessible, the installation will be slightly easier: The side panels can then be bolted directly to the floor (observe tightening torques!) and the trolley can be pushed from the end to the lower flange.

 

 

The following sections describe the installation of the single-girder crane EHB-I:

─     First, the crane trolley is prepared and pre-assembled … (see Pre-assembling the crane trolley).

─     … and then installed on the I-beam. See Mounting the trolley on the I-beam.

─     If necessary, buffer rods are then mounted on the crane trolleys. See Mounting the buffer rods.

─     Next, clamping buffers are installed on the I-beam. See Installing the clamping buffer.

─     The mains power supply is now installed on the I-beam.

Either as a festoon cable system with cable carrier in the C-rail: see Installing the mains power supply on the I-beam: Festoon cable system with cable carrier in C-rail.

Or as conductor system KBH: see Installing the mains power supply on the I-beam: Conductor system KBH.

─     The power carrier is then installed for the mains power supply. See Installing the power carrier.

─     The crane girder suspensions are then installed. See Installing the crane girder suspensions.

─     If required, multiple profile rail sections made of steel (see Connecting steel profile rail sections for crane girders) or aluminium (see Connecting aluminium profile rail sections) are connected together or shortened (see Shortening profile rail sections for crane girders) for the crane girder.

─     Next, the hoist trolley is inserted. See Inserting the hoist trolley.

─     If required, the HBF trolley drive is then installed. See Installing the trolley drive.

─     The chain hoist is then mounted on the hoist trolley. See Installing the chain hoist.

─     If required, anti-collision devices are installed for the trolleys. See Installing the anti-collision device for trolleys.

─     Next, the load capacity sign (see Attaching the load capacity label) and the name plate (see Mounting the name plate) are attached.

─     If required, a terminal box (see Installing the terminal box), a housing for fuses or a circuit isolator is then installed. See Installing the circuit isolator or fuse housing.

─     If required, a terminal box is installed. See Installing the terminal box.

─     Next, the trolley power supply is then installed (for an overview, see Installing the trolley power supply: Overview).

Either as a festoon cable system: see Trolley power supply: Installing the festoon cable system.

Or as conductor system VKL. See Trolley power supply: installing the conductor system VKL.

Or as conductor system KBH. See Trolley power supply: installing the conductor system KBH.

─     If required, the trolley travel limit switches are then installed. See Installing the trolley travel limit switches.

─     Next, the whole pre-assembled crane girder is fitted to the trolleys on the I-beam. See Installing the pre-assembled crane girder onto the trolleys on the I-beam.

─     The mains power carrying fork is then installed. See Installing the mains power carrying fork.

─     Finally, the trolley power supply is connected to the mains power supply (see Connecting the trolley power supply), the chain hoist is connected (see Connecting the chain hoist), control cable and pendant control are inserted (see Connecting the control cable and pendant control) and the trolley drive is connected (see Connecting the trolley drive).

─     Finally, the connection cables are laid. See Laying connection cables.
