CONDUCTIX wampfler 08-S265-2346-002 Conductor Bar in EMS-Systems
NOTE!
BMW stipulates a plate with a cable guide 08-P025-0191-001. This plate must
be con-sidered for new installations and rebuilding. It allows the obeying of
the correct installa-tion dimensions and a safe cable guide.
For EMS applications which are not used for BMW we also recommend to retrofit
the plate according to the distance dimension of 75 mm.
Installation Instructions
Conductor Bar in EMS-Systems
Collector Unit
Polarity Protection
BMW Best Practice solution as shown in BMW specification 
Copper-graphite Brushes compared to pure graphite Brushes
Replace copper-graphite Collectors with pure graphite Collectors
- Old copper- graphite collector height (when en-gaged): 80 mm (due to brush head with 10 mm height). New pure graphite collector height (when engaged): 75 mm (due to brush head with 5 mm height) Plate 5 mm must be used
- Collector adjustment: Exact center line of copper rail and brush head to be kept
Mistakes to avoid
-
Cables are not installed correctly:
-
No parallel cable guide
-
Cable bundle creates force on collector heads
-
Collector heads are not running parallel to conductor rail
-
-
Collector adjustment: Brush head not aligned properly (too high!) = Brush head runs permanently in an angle and grinds the plastic isolation of the conductor rail.
Recommendations
- When EMS trolley doors are dismantled (for collector changes) make sure that all doors are marked with num-bers (same as trolley numbers) to ensure that combination of doors and trolleys are kept.
- Check all collector support brackets (“Z”-bracket) for exact angles and parallel surface to trolley door and con-ductor rails.
- Check exact position of door hinges.
- Use proven Conductix-Wampfler high flexible cables.
- Do not bundle cables or use cable marker (negative influence of the collector).
- Check existing brush wear sensor unit (new set up needed).
- Make sure that all PEplus end caps of the conductor rails are green (indication for PEplus system).
