Hi Shil,

I'm a bit confused about your question. Are you talking about an overhead Power & Free Chain system with a single (or dual) chain drive system, or are you referring to an elevated belt conveyor system which is chain driven (motor-drive sprocket - drive shaft sprocket).

My confusion arises from your reference to chain dogs in conjunction with a belt system - this is usual.
