In hanging applications, freely moving cables (for electrical energy, signals, hydraulics, pneumatics ...) often pose a problem. When the system moves, the cables start to vibrate and can collide with system components and, in the worst case, break off.
This is why energy chains are used here, which both protect the individual cables and enable a guided movement of the bundled cables.
With the tips we will show you what to look out for in a hanging application.
 | Movement without lateral acceleration If the application has purely vertical movement without lateral acceleration, the energy chain needs no lateral support. Movement with lateral acceleration If there is lateral acceleration, the energy chain requires lateral guidance in most cases. Partial guidance is also an option. However, guidance must cover at least the area in which the energy chain may sway. The lateral acceleration then acts transversely to the energy chain, where it is more stable. If guidance is used, an energy chain with camber should be selected. This ensures that the energy chain is pressed into the guide trough. If possible, the energy chain installation in diagram B is preferred. |
For a Canadian oil drilling company, our e-loop energy chain solution guarantees that the top drive, which lowers the drill pipe into the earth and pulls it out again, is always safely and reliably supplied with energy and signals, even after heavy storms.
