8.7 Removing the energy supply system
Description The energy supply system is implemented in accordance with the length of
travel of the linear unit. This section describes the energy supply system for
the shorter travel. With the longer travel, the driver for the energy supply chain
is mounted in a different position on the carriage.
Preconditions
Procedure 1. Release and unplug all connectors (>>> Fig. 8-8) and unions.
2. Unscrew the screw anchors of the connector plate from the floor, and re-
move the connector plate.
3. Unscrew the energy supply chain from the fixed point module.
4. Remove the Allen screws and lock washers of the energy supply chain
from the driver and set down the energy supply chain.
5. Take the energy supply chain out of the trough system and put it into stor-
age.
6. Remove the Allen screws and take off the driver.
7. Unscrew the screw anchors from the C-profiles, and remove the trough
system.
8. If necessary, dismantle the trough system.
