Model TR Belt conveyor has three width measurements to be aware of: overall width (or bed width), between rail width, and belt width. Overall width is the width of the frame. The built-in guardrail extends a 1/2" inward on either side of the frame making the between rail width 1" smaller than the overall width. Similarly, there is a 1/2" gap between the belt and the guardrail to prevent friction making the belt width 1" smaller than the between rail width. Keep this in mind when determining what width of conveyor you need to meet your package requirements.
Conveyor is available in 5 foot and 10 foot lengths for straight sections. The length of the conveyor along with the number of supports underneath greatly determine its load capacity. In most applications, supports should be placed in either 5 or 10 feet intervals depending on the weight of the product you are conveying. By installing a support every 5 feet, capacity of that section increases greatly; keep in mind though that no matter how close together you place supports, the roller axles themselves also have a capacity that should not be exceeded.
