The inspection track section formed out of 3/16" track facilitates inspection and maintenance at points other than the drive unit. It may be placed in any run of straight track. This section is made with the top and sides open down to the center of the chain. This allows for full inspection of the chain for proper lubrication, chain tension, and general condition of the conveyor chain. The opening is covered by a removable housing equipped with a handle. The inspection section also permits easy installation and removal of chain. The most desirable location is at the lowest point between the output of the drive unit and the take-up unit. The inspection section is furnished in a standard finish to match the rest of the system.
