Product description
SWD – Rope Rocker Damper. Immediate force transmission in case of rope failure.
- Integration into a rope rocker system
- Especially suitable for nuclear power plant cranes (KTA)
- Integrated automatic switching valve guarantees fast apply times and very low reset forces
- Low load shifting pulse factor
- No crash of the transported loads in case of rope failure
- Immediate damping upon rope failure
- Lengths- and force balance for the ropes in rope rocker systems
- MADE IN GERMANY, own production
Functional principle
Rope rocker dampers will be mounted parallel to both ropes. These dampers are linked with the rope sweep and the supporting structure by joints.
The integrated automatic switching valve guarantees fast reaction times and very low restoring forces during normal operation. In case of a rope failure the rope rocker dampers damp immediately so that a free-fall way of the load can be avoided.
Technical benefits
- High safety level in case of rope failure
- Load crash protection
Options
