The insulated cable clamping wedge has been engineer designed to grip and support cable used as the pull wire emergency stop on a conveyor in conjunction with the LWS wire support. The sliding design of the two clamping wedges ensures parallel movement of the wedge thus applying uniform pressure to the cable. Cables with diameters from 8.5mm to 13.5mm to be clamped securely using the AKLS. When the need arises the cable-clamping wedge can be released by simply pushing the two sliding wedges back in the wedge carrier, enabling the cable to be released from the clamping wedge. The insulated cable clamping wedge has been engineer designed to grip and support cable used as the pull wire emergency stop on a conveyor in conjunction with the LWS wire support.

Absolute simplicity in initial setup and adjustment. Robust non-metallic enclosure. All external fixings are 316 Stainless Steel. Simple design ensures low maintenance. Stainless steel internal compression type spring. Pull rod 316 stainless steel Pull rod has external dust protecting boot for seal protection Double lip oil seal on pull rod and reset operator for secure dust and weather protection to IP 67. Non-metallic pull rod bushing Positive drive action from cams through to switching contacts provides mechanical forcing of the trip contacts. Micro switches are wired to terminals for easy wiring installation. Cam design compensates for pull wire expansion contraction up to 15mm either side of the set point. Eliminates nuisance tripping due to vibration.

The Safe-T-Curve is a product that is designed to be used on any pull wire system that needs the wirerope to bend around any type of corner with out becoming stuck, snagged or pulls out like a standard pulley may. A standard pulley is designed mainly for yachts and straight pull situations where the wirerope is to be pulled around the wheel not on an angle to the wheels groove. When they are pulled at an angle the wirerope can become dislodged or stuck in the housing as they aren’t designed for that type of application. The Safe-T-Curve is designed specifically for this type of application, as the roller tube acts as the pulley and the guides keep the wirerope contained. When the wirerope is pulled in a direction that is not in line with the pulley roller the guides keep the wirerope encapsulated so the wirerope can’t become stuck or dislodged. The long pulley tube stop the wirerope from becoming stuck or dislodged even if the wirerope becomes slack. The mounting system is designed so that it is moveable and can mounted to any angled corner or bend, so keeping the wirerope in the direction that it is intended to go.
