Hi-Profile Track Connection Assembly
Find the starting point on the GA drawings. If there isn’t one call Serpentix to help determine the best coarse of action. Typically the Tension Station or Drive Station are a starting point. Place the next piece of track into place per the match marks. Each Hi-Profile joint requires twelve
(12x) 3/4”-10NC x 1 1/2” bolts and twelve (12x) 3/4”-10NC ESNA-nuts. Work through the track layout,

When the track is correctly
aligned at each splice joint,

Hi-Profile Track Pipe Support Connection Assembly
Prepare for the installation of the conveyor chain by dis- connecting electrical power so that the drive station pul- ley can be rotated by hand. Place a shipping container of chain at the tension stations so that the chain can be
pulled out of the container and roller carriages progres- sively installed while feeding the assembly into the tracks.
At this time everyone associated with handling the chain must be instructed to use care that the chain is not to be dropped or hit with hard objects, or upon hard surfaces.
This caution is necessary because the chain is case
hardened and any such blows can create a stress rise
point that will weaken the chain.
Optional bolting the pipe supports
together. Field Drill 7/16” hole
and use a 3/8” x 3 1/2”Lg. bolt
Placing anchor bolts into the
floor and grouting under sup-
port legs should be per-
formed as the next step. Fi-
nally, dress the welds and
prime paint the welded areas
along with any areas where
the factory paint has be dam-
aged. If the conveyor is to
receive a finish paint coat, it
will be easier to apply it now.
