The Bosch Rexroth SAFETY CATCH (3842546519) is a meticulously engineered component designed for enhancing the safety of lifting doors. This safety device includes a deflection pulley and control cable, with a counterweight that can be individually adjusted to suit specific requirements, preferably within a cable duct. Its design ensures that the length of the cable can be tailored to the application, promising a service life of numerous actuations. The SAFETY CATCH is crucial in applications where it acts as a backup fall arrestor in compliance with the Machinery Directive EC. It functions by preventing the door from crashing down in the event of a cable failure. When such an incident occurs, the rotating part of the catch engages against a counterbearing, effectively wedging itself within the guide profile to halt movement and prevent potential accidents or damage. This safety catch is designed with precision to maintain a gap dimension between its body and the lateral guide profile. Each lifting door requires one safety catch per cable, with this model supporting a maximum load capacity of N and a minimum load capacity of N. For optimal performance and safety, it's recommended that the counterbearing (e.g., slider) be installed directly beneath and as close as possible to the safety catch. Constructed from robust materials including aluminum housing, stainless steel turntable, hardened steel bolt, nickel-plated steel chain lock, and POM spacer disk, this product promises durability and reliability. The SAFETY CATCH comes fully assembled with an included chain lock for securing cables. For installation purposes, fastening material for attaching it to lifting doors is recommended alongside accessories like sliders and counterbalances. Before using this product, users are advised to consult the included data sheet for important usage notes.
