 Companies are constantly having to meet the demands of rising costs. Improved
efficiency in all parts of production is the logical answer.
Demag conductor systems are an important part of the solution, offering versatility
and efficiency.
Demag DEL single conductors provide a high-performance power supply for mobile
equipment such as cranes and monorails. They can be easily integrated into existing
installations for lasting economical benefits.

• Compact and versatile

• High electrical safety due to large spacing between conductors
• Easy to install and maintain
• Reliable power transmission by current collector pantographs
• Variety of suspension possibilities
• Adapts to customer-specific requirements
• Cost-effective spacing between suspensions
• Expansion joints between conductor sections absorb differences in length due to
temperature variations
• Patented connector system

5.1 Straight sections Straight sections are 5945 mm long. A length of 6000 mm should be used for design
purposes. Shorter length sections are made using a straight cut. The green/yellow
protective earth (PE) conductor should be arranged to face the crane girder web.
The maximum permissible distance between brackets is 1000 mm, and 200 mm for
conductor connectors, isolating sections and end caps.
Two stop plates must be ordered for each conductor to secure against longitudinal
displacement.

Curved sections can be made in the factory or on site using a bending device. They
are supplied with 100 mm long straight ends for connection to the straight sections.
These straight ends must be removed if not required. A bending device for on-site
installation for horizontal and vertical curved sections can be supplied on request. The
maximum permissible distance between brackets is 500 mm, and 200 mm for con-
ductor connectors, isolating sections and end caps.

1) Highly flexible connecting cable with double insulation must also be ordered (see page 21, item 16.4). The
smallest required conductor cross-section (2,5 – 6 mm²) must be used to keep the reaction forces on the
current collector pantograph as low as possible.
2) Current collector pantographs with graphite sliding contacts for operation outdoors, near salt water and
chemicals. Use double current collector pantographs for operation near salt water and chemicals.

Remark: The electrical safety of 4-pole installations and 6-pole suspensions, for example, can
be improved by leaving a section empty between the three phases (PH) if the protec-
tive earth conductor (PE) is arranged on the outside of the suspension bracket.
Unguided entry operations into these arrangements are not possible.

Please note:
Conductor lines must be operated in line with generally recognised engineering
standards. Reference is made to the VDE regulations, particularly to VDE 0100.
Reference is also made to the following relevant extracts:
Arm’s reach is the area in which a person can reach in all directions without any spe-
cial equipment from places in which he or she would normally walk or stand. From
the position in which a person is standing, arm’s reach is usually defined as at least
2,5 m in height and at least 1,25 m to the side and downwards (see DIN 31 001
Sheet 1).
In places where long or bulky, non-insulated objects are usually handled, the mini-
mum arm’s reach dimension must be correspondingly increased.
Protection against direct contact is defined as all measures to protect persons from
hazards resulting from contact with live parts of electrical equipment. This may be
partial or complete protection.
Partial protection only offers protection against accidental contact. Protection against
accidental contact does not constitute protection against deliberate contact.
Enclosure IP 2X to DIN 40 050 offers protection against accidental contact. Complete
protection only begins with IP 5X to DIN 40 050.
The live parts of electrical equipment must either be insulated along their entire length
or protected against direct contact by means of their design, position, arrangement
or special devices.
If a nominal voltage of 25 V AC or 60 V DC is exceeded, protection against accidental
contact must be ensured by means of:
• covers or enclosures with at least IP 2X type of protection to DIN 40 050 or
• insulation which is resistant to a test voltage of 500 V AC for 1 minute.
If a nominal voltage of 25 V AC or 60 V DC is not exceeded, protection against acci-
dental contact is not usually required.
Protective barriers such as mesh screens, perforated plates, etc. may only be consid-
ered as protection against accidental contact if they do not have any openings which
allow live parts to be touched with a mobile test finger according to VDE 0470 Part 1
(minimum enclosure IP 2X to DIN 40 050).
Covers, protective mesh screens, enclosures and similar must be reliably fixed and
mechanically robust.
Conductor lines must be arranged or clad in such a way that no accidental contact is
possible in normal operation, e.g. when mounting or walking onto crane runway and
crane girder walkways including all access points.
Conductor lines must be arranged or protected in such a way that they cannot come
into contact with load supporting means even if loads sway.
