Product Profile of Spring Operated Reels

Elektromag group of companies is the manufacturer of industrial magnetic equipment, vibrating equipment, mineral processing equipment, crane control gear, machine tool accessories and other industrial products in india. The spring operated reel a cable & hose handling system with spring powered automatic rewind provides power to moving machines such as cranes and hoists as well as a flexible link for other services or controls. It consists of the following unique features:

• The ranges of spring operated reels available from elektromag here are developed from the standard `s` series cable reels and are used largely for ac, dc applications.

• In common with the rest of the `s` range, these reels are built to ip55 enclosure protection.

• These reels recover and store the cable in multiple layers on the drum.

• Multi-way slipring arrangements can be fitted to the sc40 and sc75 reels for use with double wound power/control circuits etc.

• When applied on the horizontal recovery-end feed the reel recovers the cable or hose which is laid on the ground or in a tray.

• Horizontal recovery-centre feed allows the machine to travel to both sides of the fixed point, where a turnover anchor is installed.

• In the vertical recovery arrangement the reel is again machine mounted and long vertical travels are available as the reel does not have to pull the weight of the cable.

• Horizontal catenary arrangement doesn`t allow the cable/hose to be laid on the ground but suspended in air by virtue of the tension imparted by the spring.

• Horizontal drag arrangement requires high spring tensions and is harsh on cable/hose.

• In the vertical pull arrangement the reel is mounted on a fixed structure and must overcome the weight of the subtended cable/hose.

• The d.C. Magnet reel used in spring operated reels for lifting magnet applications, dc and early supply to crane l, magnets feature heavy duty 3 way slipring assemblies each fitted with double brush gear insulated for 600v max. Working voltage.

• All power slip rings are designed for 600v ac operating voltage stated otherwise and comply with the relevant b.S., v. D.E., c.S.A ., n.E.M.A.Etc specifications regarding minimum air gaps and creep distances.
