The Bosch Rexroth BASE UNIT 240+ STS DIRECT (3842547526) is a sophisticated base unit designed for conveyor systems, providing a foundation for the STS (Smart Transport System) with VFplus direct drive. This unit features reduced noise emission due to its slide rails guided in the head drive, ensuring a quieter operation that is beneficial in various working environments. The versatile design allows for the installation of the drive kit on either the right or left side, which includes a motor, coupling, and flange. Additionally, it supports the driving of parallel conveyor sections or bridges via a standard integrated hexagonal hollow shaft. The BASE UNIT 240+ STS DIRECT is constructed with high-quality materials including ball bearings made of non-rusting steel with seals on both sides and FDA-compliant grease filling, making it suitable for industries that require strict hygiene standards. The side elements of this base unit offer mounting options for holders used to attach lateral guides or similar components. This product can accommodate all track widths and chain types while withstanding a maximum permissible chain tensile force. It comes fully assembled with fastening material and includes connectors and chain guards. For optimal performance, accessories such as bridge connection kits and synchronous drive connection kits are recommended while drive kits and slide rails are required. The innovative drive concept behind this base unit allows for efficient energy transfer within conveyor systems, contributing to overall productivity enhancements. Furthermore, its ability to compensate for chain elongation during service life ensures long-term reliability and reduced maintenance needs. However, it is not suitable for operations requiring reversible motion. In summary, the Bosch Rexroth BASE UNIT 240+ STS DIRECT offers robust construction, versatility in application, and innovative features that facilitate smooth operation in automated material handling systems.
