5.1
Deflection of the rubbish chute
Deflection leads to a high level of wear of the chute and the suspension
structure. If the rubbish chute is to be deflected, the following points
must be taken into consideration:
5.1.1
Maximum deflection
As the deflection radius increases, there is an increase in the risk of a
blockage in the rubbish chute. Deflection at a maximum ratio of 10:1
(i.e. max. 1 m deflection over 10 m, but not more than 2.5 m over the
overall length of the rubbish chute.
5.1.2
Make the distance between suspension points shorter in the
area of the deflection
Make the distance between the suspension points of the rubbish chute
shorter in the area of the deflection.
(Effective length of an element only 0.7 – 0.8 m).
5.1.3
Use guide ring
Use a guide ring on the bottom elements and fasten to the container
using both ropes.
5.1.4
Use wear insert
In the case of coarse / sharp-edges rubble (e.g. bricks), use wear
inserts in the area of the deflection. It is also possible to install wear
inserts retrospectively.
CAUTION:
Observe the max. weight; the full installation height may not be
possible.
