Installing Expansion Modules: Building/Load Profile Expansion Joints
Fig. 22: Installed expansion module with expansion joint
The expansion modules are loaded in the middle of the range of the building load profile expansion joint. Fastening
points are located to their right and left (see section 6.3.3.5 in BAL0815-0002-EN). Depending on the further path of the
segment, it may be possible to omit the fastening points (e.g. if a curve is next; see instructions in chapter 5.1).
After determining the installation position of the expansion modules (see above), install the conductor rails up to the
installation position of the expansion element. The conductor rails for all poles must be the same length (end flush).
Fig. 23: Load profile with hanger clamp, installed rails, and expansion joint
The expansion module, including the preinstalled hanger clamps, clips into the hanger clamps permanently mounted
on the load profile. The hanger clamps preinstalled on the expansion module remain on the expansion module and are
not connected to the load profiles (floating installation).
NOTE!
The hanger clamps fastened to the load profile must have enough distance
from the middle of the hanger clamp to the middle of the expansion element of
the expansion module (at least 100 mm)!
