Knight Global Electrified Rail Systems, Capacity 3000 lbs - KG ERAD7000

Electrified Rail Systems are a complete power supply suspension system that can be used in combination with a Knight Servo System, VFD tractors, power tools, and other electrical devices. The ERAD Series is a fully enclosed electrical system that eliminates the stack-up of runway festooning. The power travels through a conductor power rail (ERail), mounted on top of Knight's ERAD7000 ergonomically friendly aluminum rail. The standard ERail is equipped with (4) four poles, nominal current 60 amp, 240/480V which can run multiple systems on (1) one rail assembly.

Features:

  • Patent Pending
  • Fully Enclosed Electrical System
  • Horizontal curved sections available
  • Compliant with International Standards
  • Added safety against shock
  • Knight's unique hanger design allows for adjustments while leveling the system

Benefits:

  • Eliminates stack-up of festooning trolleys and hanging electrical cables
  • Simplifies installation by including electrical rail within suspension
  • Eliminates need for tow bars
  • Stacked compact design eliminates need from installing load rail and power rail separately
  • Twice the power of the competition

Specifications:

  • ERail Electrical Capacity: Up to 60 amps / 690 volts
  • Max Weight Capacity: Up to 3,000 lbs [1,360 kg]

System Component:

ERail:

Available in 4 poles with a nominal current of 60 A. Optional 5, 6, and 7 poles available upon request.

ERail Conductor Trolley:

Travels inside of the ERail and is combined with the Knight load trolley. Copper graphite shoes are used for energy and control voltages over 35 V.

ERAD7000:

Combined with Knight's load trolleys, provides the most ergonomically friendly rail system. Rail comes in lengths up to 25ft [9.1m] without a splice. Capacities up to 3,000 lbs. [1,360 kg].

Suspension Points:

Knight adjustable hangers and End Trucks support both the Load Rail and ERail. Hangers have the ability to mount to I-Beams, C-Channels, Angle Iron, and many others.

ERail End Caps and Stops:

Attaches to the end of the ERail Series Rail. The Redundant End Cap is primarily used to prevent load and ERail trolleys from exiting the rail.

Power Supply End Feed:

Power supply feed for ERail. Comes standard with 4 poles, 5-7 poles available upon request.

*Due to Ergonomic considerations, each rail span distance is tested to determine the maximum single point load required to achieve a predetermined deflection based on a ratio of 1:350 (1" of deflection for each 350" of length), 1:450 (1" of deflection in 450" of length) or 1:550 (1" of deflection for each 550" of length).

For purposes of estimating approximate ergonomic force requirements, the following formula may be used:

0.009 x total mass = maximum effort (in lbf) required to overcome inertia. Effort required to sustain movement is generally 0.35 x effort to overcome inertia e.g., 250 lbs. (1.03 kg) mass x 0.009 = 2.25 lbf (0.9 kg) to overcome inertia, 2.25 (0.9 kg) x 0.35 = .79 lbf (0.36 kg) to sustain movement
