Withstands sand & salt
December 1st 2009 Vital to the smooth running of
airport terminals around the world,
the Transnorm Belt Curve is reported
to provide trouble free operation 24
hours a day, 7 days a week, in many
hostile environments.
Challenges at Dubai International,
an airport situated between a desert
and an ocean, which is subjected to
wind borne sand, salt and
temperatures in excess of 40°C, have
prompted the company to develop its
proven product to a new level. As well
as coping with the harsh climate
conditions, baggage weights of up to
50kg per person have to be allowed,
with dimensions to match.
To prove the reliability of the curve
prior to purchase, the Dubai
authorities set up a test loop in
ambient desert conditions and ran the
curves for 12 months carrying 60kg
baggage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The curves successfully endured sand,
salt and temperatures which varied
from +50 to 0°C. More articles from Transnorm System Limited: |
