The Bosch Rexroth CABLE CONTROL COUNTERBALANCE (3842518798) is a robust and reliable solution designed for the safe and efficient operation of lifting doors. This counterbalance system includes a deflection pulley and a control cable that work together to facilitate the smooth lifting of doors. The counterweight is adjustable, allowing for customization according to specific door weights, and it can be ideally routed within a cable duct to maintain an organized setup. With an impressive service life of 50,000 actuations, this system ensures long-term performance with minimal maintenance. The cable length is also adjustable to fit various door sizes and installations. The profile finishes include M12 for securing the deflection pulley, ensuring a stable connection. A key feature of this product is its safety catch mechanism, which complies with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC by providing a back-up fall arrestor. In the event of a cable failure, the safety catch engages by jamming against a counterbearing, thus preventing the door from falling and ensuring user safety. For optimal performance, each cable requires one safety catch that can support a maximum load of 250 N and a minimum load of 25 N. The gap dimension between the safety catch body and lateral guide profile is specified at 6 mm to ensure proper functioning without interference. To complete the installation, it's recommended to mount the counterbearing (e.g., slider 3 842 530 303) directly under the safety catch for immediate response in case of an emergency. Installation guidelines are provided with the product datasheet to ensure correct setup and usage. This comprehensive system is designed not only for functionality but also prioritizes user safety in industrial applications involving lifting doors.
