6. Inspection/check of the rail system

After mounting a rail system, the system shall be inspected. All fastening points shall be inspected. Check that all
end stops are correctly located and secured. Check if the friction brake on all trolleys is correctly set, so that no
trolleys are moving unintentionally.
In accordance with the European standard EN 10535, the system shall be stress tested with 300 kg. This should be
done at each fixing point. This test is carried out as a re-testing of the system structures ability to secure the rail
system in place.
When the inspection has been completed, the system is
-certified.
The inspection of a rail system must only be carried out by authorised Invacare® service technician.

7.1 The rail system

All rail profiles are manufactured in extruded aluminium alloy EN AW-6060/AlMgSi F22.
The rails are available with a natural anodization or a white powder coating.
The rails are stocked in a number of standard lengths of up to 8 m and cut to desired length before delivery.
The rails are available in three different heights; S= 68 mm, M=114 mm and L=183 mm, providing a fee span of
2000 mm, 4000 mm and 8000 mm, respectively.
The profile width of all three profiles is 58 mm.
The top of the profiles are shaped to permit the coupling of the rails to the installation brackets.
On delivery, the rail for the hoist will feature a milled groove on its bottom. This groove is used for hoist
installation and are called keyhole.

7.2 Possible installations.

Mono-rail can be installed on the ceiling or onto the wall and floor. The rail position in the room can be either
parallel to a wall or angular in relation to a wall.
The traverse system can be installed on the ceiling or onto the wall and floor. The free span between the two
parallel rails can be up to 8000 mm.
Curves are available in the S-profile and can be installed on the ceiling. They are available in angles of 30°, 45°, 60°
and 90°.

7.3 Special solutions

Installation with pendling brackets is used in the following cases:
When the height of the ceiling varies in the lenghtwise direction of the rail, or when the rail is to be countersunk.
Angular installation is used when the rail has to be installed in other angles than 90°.
