3.6.4. Maximum slope of the road in Z-axis
In drive direction (Z-axis) of the bus the lower plain of the collector heads should be parallel to
the road. See picture below.
NOTICE
The road inclination should be known before the pole is installed on the
location. This will also be noted by ABB during the site survey for the
placement of the pole. Contact ABB Sales department (see
Contact
information
on Page 14 for contact details).
The installation can handle a road inclination smaller than 2.5° without any modification to the
position of the pantograph. When the road inclination is between 2.5° and 6.0°, the position of
the pantograph must be adjusted. To adjust the angle in Z-axis, see section
Pantograph Z-
axis angle
adjustment on Page 102. The road inclination should not be greater than 5.0°.
