Gates 8GTV-4000-21 Poly Chain Carbon Volt 9239-1500

Description

Antistatic power transmission belts are a necessity in volatile environments, like those found in the energy, agriculture, and petrochemical industries. The Poly Chain Carbon Volt belt is the only belt in the market that provide an industry-leading solution that meets ISO 9563 standard for static conductivity over the full lifetime of the belt. Its patented static-conductive jacket construction transfers static electricity safely to carbon tensile cords, away from the driven side of the application – making it your safest and strongest option for applications in ATEX environments.

Markets/Applications

Any application requiring antistatic drive systems that meet ISO 9563 standards, including those found in oil, gas and chemical refining, grain processing, or electronically sensitive environments.

Features/Advantages

• Static conductive (ISO 9563) and can be used in conditions described in the directive 2014/34/EU- ATEX
• All the same maintenance-free and performance advantages offered by Poly Chain GT Carbon Belts
  • Significantly reduces maintenance costs
  • Equivalent capacity to roller chain drives in the same width
  • Fast drive conversion payback
• Curvilinear tooth profile for improved stress distribution and higher overall loading
• Carbon fiber reinforcement for high strength and length stability
• Chemically resistant polyurethane compound that ensures optimum adhesion with the carbon tensile cords
• Fully operational in temperature extremes of -65 degrees F to +185 degrees F

Recommended Sprockets

• Taper-Lock type Poly Chain GT2 Sprockets when designing a new Poly Chain Carbon Volt belt drive system

Poly Chain Carbon Volt belts are antistatic in accordance with ISO 9563. When belt drive systems are located in potentially hazardous environments, safe and reliable dissipation of electrostatic charges is critical – a secondary means of dissipation such as static grounding brushes is recommended.
