All AQUALLINE Spelter Sockets are made from high-quality cast steel and are suitable for low temperature environments. The minimum operating temperature for general applications is -46°C (-40°C for our Anchor Pendant Sockets). The material has an impact value of 50J at -20°C Charpy-V. Never use a wire rope with a diameter that deviates from that stated in the product datasheets. Key considerations for socketing • When using white metal or zinc, pre-heat the socket basket, but never expose a socket to a temperature of more than 350°C (660°F). • Always read and fully understand the instructions and the warnings provided by the resin manufacturer. Sockets should be at ambient (or room) temperature. Do not heat the sockets prior to pouring. Poured sockets should not be moved for at least 15 minutes after the resin in the socket has gelled. If possible, we recommend the assembly to be proof tested at 40% of the MBL of the used wire rope at least 1 hour after the resin in the socket has gelled. • For a complete overview of the minimum requirements for socketing we refer to DIN EN 13411-4:2011-06 and ISO 17558:2006-09. S) • Before installation, always grease the Connector Fitting’s threading, by lubricating it through the grease nipple on the front of the Adjustable Open Spelter Socket (1). • Use lubricant for high-pressure contact surfaces (EP3 or EP4). • Re-grease after every 100 hours of use. • Regularly check if all safety screws, bolts, and nuts are still properly in place. • Remove the hexagon bolt on the side of the socket by unscrewing the nyloc nut with washers (2). Then, turn the Connector Fitting just enough to see the two safety screws through the slot hole (3). Unscrew the safety screws. Make sure to keep all parts together and handle the Connector Fitting with care to avoid damages to the thread. 1 2 3 www.kulkoni.com | 1-800-231-2357 A Q U A L L I N E P R O D U C T S 18
