Dimensions
A flat and level surface is required for the
carrier system to be installed properly.
If necessary, a support tray should be
installed. (cf.System Components section)

Long travel lengths
With long travel lengths the upper part of the cable carrier glides on
its lower run in a guide channel.
Design → cf. Construction Guidelines
Guide channel → cf. System Components
We recommend that a system of this kind be planned by one of
our engineers.
