Maintenance Kit
Tensioning and Lubrication Station
KTF/SRF-P 2010
The use of the optional automatic tensioning and
lubrication station lets you avoid unnecessary
maintenance tasks. There is no need to manually
retension or manually oil the chain. Automatic tensioning
does not change the length of the conveyor.
In addition to the visual tensioning distance monitor,
a tensioning distance sensor is also available,
both with and without a lubricant insert.
Tensioning Device for SRF-P 2012
mk offers an optional automatic tensioning device
that uses a traffic light marking to indicate when
the chain needs to be shortened.
Green: OK
Yellow: Shortening not yet required
Red: Chain must be shortened if the maximum
elongation of 3% of the chain has not been
reached
When the elongation reaches 3%, the chain and
the sprocket wheels must be replaced.
Assembly Aid for Chain Replacement
To replace the accumulating roller chain, you must
relieve the tension at the tail. The built-in assembly
aid makes it easier to replace the chain by allowing
you to remove one part of the wear strip separately.
You must then advance the accumulating roller
chain until the chain lock with the blue ring appears
in the opened area. You can now replace the accumulating
roller chain.
