e-dispenser for shore-power supply

... reduces costs and is environmentally friendly ... e-dispenser

In 2017, we introduced the e-chain, a complete solution for a partially automated shore power supply system. In this case, it was a project-specific special solution, which had to be (at least partly) re-designed for every new application in the port.Based on this idea and the experiences in the area of shore power supply, we re-designed the e-dispenser. The goal is to provide modular energy supply solutions for different shore power applications for medium and low-voltage connections. The e-dispenser module can be used variably in combination with various systems (e.g. cranes, structures, mobile transfer systems). The e-dispenser module is delivered as a ready-to-install plug-and-play solution: conveyor unit with triflex R energy chain, chainflex cables, connectors, junction box, harnessing – everything tested and with a 36-month guarantee.With this, we offer a standard energy supply unit that is individually adapted to the situation on site and the respective customer requirements, developed and constructed as a complete solution. Also for other industries, e.g. mechanical engineering, robotics and welding applications, the e-dispenser module represents an interesting energy supply solution. In all cases, users benefit from standardised (and hence tried, tested, and cost-effective) energy supply components.

Tech up

Tech up

  • Modular and compact system
  • Modular system: ready-to-install triflex® R e-chains® energy supply unit incl. cables & connectors; optional: drive; optional: further steel structure
  • Flexible in terms of extension length and installation options
  • Fail-safe through cable protection with triflex R energy chain TRC.125*
  • Defined minimum bend radius*
*Compared to commercially available systems with an open-guided multi-core cable
Cost down

Cost down

  • Single cores are more cost-effective than multi-core cables
  • Less space required due to use of single cores (due to smaller minimum bend radius*)
  • In the event of damage to a single cable, the entire cable package does not need to be replaced*
  • Standard components instead of project-specific special solutions
  • Time-saving, partially automated connection of the power supply
Proof

Proof

  • Test set-up at igus®
Sustainability

Sustainability

  • Power supply by means of shore power, ship's diesel engine does not have to be used for power generation
  • No exhaust gases and no noise locally
  • Have your energy chain recycled in the igus® chainge recycling program when it reaches the end of its service life. No matter what manufacturer.

e-dispenser Multi-core cable with 3 x 95²
Minimum bend radius Ø 70mm x 10 = 700mm
e-dispenser * The bend radius within the e-dispenser has been reduced from 700mm to 300mm (57%) and outside the system the cables are protected from kinking with the TRC (bend radius 185mm).
e-dispenser 3 x chainflex CFCRANE.PUR (95²) + triflex R TRC.125.182.0
Minimum bend radius Ø 30mm x 10 = 300mm
