Safe-Lec 2 Conductor Bars

AFE-LEC 2 ^®  V-Contact Conductor Bar System – the new standard in overhead crane electrification.  SL 2 is ideal for monorail and material handling system electrification as well.

Safe-Lec 2 provides these great benefits:

• Positive Tracking – “V-contact” in the bar guides the shoe and provides continuous conductivity.  Collector arms articulate in a wide range of motion to help keep the collector shoe in contact with the rail.
• Safe Insulation –  Conductor bar is insulated for IP2 “finger-safe” operation.
• Bolted Splice – a postive connection that cannot pull apart over time.
• Minimum Number of Unique Parts – same cover profile fits all bar styles!
• Easy System Configuration – using our advanced “Quick Quote” software.

Hevi-Bar II Conductor Bars

The Conductix-Wampfler Hevi-Bar II Conductor Bar System delivers the kind of reliable, high-capacity crane rail electric service needed by factories, mills, storage yards, people movers, and other rigorous applications.

Hevi-Bar II features:

• Effective Heat Dissipation – uses surface area rather than mass to dissipate heat generated by high current conditions
• Mounting versatility – can be mounted with the bars next to one another (horizontal) or one above the other (vertical)
• A choice of Insulating Covers – standard orange PVC, green PVC for the bonding (ground) conductor bar (500 amp only), black UV-resistant PVC for outdoor use, and medium or high heat versions to withstand higher ambient temperatures
• Ease of Installation – a limited number of modular components
• Low Maintenance and Long Life – this is truly an “install it once and forget about it” conductor bar system
• Easy System Configuration – using our advanced “Quick Quote” software!

Insul 8 8-Bar Conductor Bars

60 years ago Conductix-Wampfler, under the name Rucker Insul 8^®  Corporation, was the first to develop the original “8-Bar” electric conductor bar. This innovative design greatly improved the safety of overhead crane electrification. Since then, hundreds of miles of 8-Bar systems have been installed and are in use all over the world. It is truly the industry standard!

Conductix-Wampfler Insul 8^®  8-Bar Systems are:

• UL listed and CSA Approved
• Fast and Easy to Install
• Easy to Maintain
• Complete with a Wide Selection of Special Options – curved bar, corrosion resistant systems, pick-up guides, and a wide variety of brackets.
• Special Applications Experience – over 60 years of field use
• Easy System Configuration – using our advanced “Quick Quote” software!

Side-Contact Conductor Bars

Conductix-Wampfler Side Contact Conductor Bar is a variation of the 8-Bar system designed for lateral (side) entry of the collector. UL / CSA listed. Side Contact is ideal when there is insufficient room for standard “bottom entry” mounting and/orconductors must be more closely spaced than standard 8-Bar allows.

Side-Contact Conductor Bars:

• Come with cover and connector pins installed. Copper and Laminate Bars also come with Joint Keepers.
• Have expansion sections that are required for every 350 feet (106.7m) for 40, 90, and 110 amp systems, or 250 feet (76.2m) for 250 or 350 amps to compensate for thermal expansion.
• Are easy to configure using our advanced “Quick Quote”software!

Tower Buss Conductor Bar – For Wind Turbines

Handling and installing power cables in wind turbine towers is difficult and costly. The solution is Tower Buss^TM by Conductix-Wampfler.

Conductix-Wampfler has applied its extensive knowledge and experience in rigid conductor design to develop the Tower Bussmodular conductor bar system. It can be pre-assembled into the tower before it is erected – completely eliminates the hassle of installing main cables after erection.
