1.
How will the reels be used? (Check
one) |
|
Drag |
Lift |
|
|
|
|
Stretch
|
Retrieve |
|
|
|
|
2.
Other application information: Describe the application or attach
a sketch. For example: Will the reel need to lift
a cable-end accessory, or will the cable
be run through rollers or sheaves? Or will the cable pay out
at an angle?

Other considerations (vibration, shock loads, etc):
|
|
|
|
MECHANICAL DATA |
|
1.
DUTY CYCLE
cycles per
[How often will the reel payout and retract?] |
|
|
Note:
If the reel will cycle 20,000 times or more per year and/or
if the environment is unusually harsh, premium cable may be
required.
Please consult us. |
|
2.
SPEED If reel will
power moving equipment, what is the speed of the equipment?
FT/min.
M/min. |
|
3.
PAYOUT ANGLE How
will the cable be paid out?
Parallel with Spool
At an Angle from the Spool |
|
|
Note:
If the cable payout is more than 15 degrees from parallel with
the spool, a swivel bases or swing-mount will be
required, refer to Options below or contact us for recommendations. |
|
4.
OTHER MECHANICAL NOTES Will cable
pass through/along devices such as rollers or sheaves that might
affect cable retraction? |
|
|
|
ELECTRICAL
DATA |
|
1.
AMPACITY REQUIRED
[The
amount of amperage the reel/cable needs to handle per conductor.] |
|
|
|
|
Motor horsepower-to-amperage conversion
To power an electromagnet - please consult us. |
|
2.
NUMBER OF CONDUCTORS REQUIRED
(with ground)
[ Note: Single phase
needs three conductors.; three-phase needs four ] |
|
3.
WIRE GAUGE/SIZE REQUIRED
AWG
Metric [To handle the required amperage per conductor.] |
|

|
|
|
CABLE
LENGTH NEEDED Add up the cable length you
need on the spool. |
|
Active
Length
[The
difference between minimum and maximum operating payout. See
Drag drawing above] |
|
Inactive
Length
[The
cable that will stay outside the reel, even at minimum payout.
See Lift drawing above] |
|
Sag
Allowance
[For Stretch applications only, add 10% to the active
+ inactive length for cable sag.
See Stretch drawing above] |
|
Lift
Height
[The distance from where the unwound cable will lay up to the
reel location - see Retrieve drawing above] |
|
Hookup
Length
[The amount needed to make connections at the free end
of the cable - see Retrieve drawing above] |
|
|
|
|
TOTAL
CABLE LENGTH NEEDED ON THE SPOOL
(the sum of all lengths listed above) |
|
Feeder
Cord Length (if needed)
[To bring power to the reel - See Lift
drawing above. A feeder is standard on some reels.] |
