POWER CURTAIN
Short loading times are crucial in the logistics sector to increase turnaround speed and efficiency. Schmitz Cargobull. S.CS curtainsider semi-trailers or M.CS/Z.CS high-volume truck body and trailer combinations with POWER CURTAIN deliver these requirements. The structural rigidity of the body is certified to DIN EN 12642 Code XL and is achieved with a high-strength tarpaulin with aramid belts and integrated steel wires.
Your benefits
-
The special requirements for side walls and load securing for the transport of loose and pretzelled tyres are now also fulfilled and certified.
-
The high strength of the sidewall, in the construction for the tyre certificate for the S.CS, is generated by an easy-to-use lever mechanism that brings pre-tension into the curtain.
-
No support laths, therefore easier to use and greater safety when loading and unloading.
-
Rear load securing even with partial loads. Fast, simple and correct securing by suspension in the tarpaulin loops.
-
Lath-free body helps to cut running costs. No loss of support laths, no damage, lower risk of injury.
-
Shorter loading and unloading times compared to the S.CS curtainsider semi-trailer with standard body
-
Cost-effective alternative to the SPEED CURTAIN.
-
High-strength side tarpaulins for anti-theft protection, protection against unauthorised access to the goods and malicious cutting of the tarpaulin.
-
Good structural rigidity of the body in standard version, certified to DIN EN 12642 Code XL and DL Directive 9.5 together with a Beverage Certificate.
-
Suitability for all operations provides greater transport efficiency.
Handling
Strong - Efficient rear load securing - even with partial loads of up to 7,500 daN - due to the loops integrated in the tarpaulin.
Flexible - Three rows of loops integrated in the tarpaulin provide for flexible load securing approximately every 60 cm. The loops can be easily reached at different points in the trailer.
Additional equipment for tyre transport
Comprehensively certified - also for tyre transport and other goods which are not suitable for positive Transport the side tarpaulin strong burden. The strength of the curtain, for the curtainsider semi-trailer S.CS, is determined by an easy-to-use lever mechanism of the supporting bars which applies pre-tension to the tarpaulin

Load securing
Efficient securing even with partial loads or with form-fitting loading, with no need for additional equipment.
Well thought-out, certified structural rigidity of the body
-
The POWER CURTAIN body is reinforced with aramid belts on the S.CS curtainsider semi-trailer. Aramid is low-stretch and is even used to fabricate bullet-proof vests.
-
The POWER CURTAIN consists of a reinforced tarpaulin made of high-strength material.
-
With shorter vehicles, such as the M.CS/Z.CS high-volume truck body and trailer combination, the body is supported by vertical and horizontal reinforcements.
-
Both bodies feature integral anti-theft protection.
-
Optionally the POWER CURTAIN provides a flexible load securing system for partial loads with blocking forces of up to 7,500 daN.
-
The high strength of the sidewall, in the construction for the tyre certificate, is demonstrated by an easy to use lever mechanism of the supporting bars that brings pre-tension into the tarpaulin
Road test in accordance with DIN EN 12642 Code XL
The trailer body's DIN EN 12642 Code XL certificate provides that it can be secured by the side tarpaulins without the need for additional restraints when the load is form-fitted.
-
Safety has top priority at Schmitz Cargobull - all bodies are certified to DIN EN 12642 Code XL.
-
These tests are often supervised by official approved test institutes who then issue load securing certificate.
-
Even the POWER CURTAIN has undergone extensive testing. In test drives, the body is exposed to critical loads to simulate extreme everyday situations.

Safety at a glance
A copy of the DIN EN 12642 Code XL certificate is located on the inside of the rear door of the S.CS curtainsider semi-trailer and M.CS/Z.CS high-volume truck body and trailer combination, both fitted with a POWER CURTAIN.
Badges are additionally affixed to the front and rear wall as evidence that the structural rigidity of the body complies with DIN EN 12642 Code XL.
The badge for the S.CS curtainsider semi-trailer includes the following information:
- Details of the test loads at different loading heights
- Required number of support laths: "0".
- The POWER CURTAIN does not require support laths.
