Description

The disc pack accommodates angular misalignment from 1/2° to 1-1/2° and is used in all disc couplings.

The discs are manufactured from high-quality stainless steel (AISI-301), which guarantees high strength, excellent fatigue resistance, and resistance to most environmental conditions. Disc couplings use disc packs with 4, 6, or 8 bolts. Although the 8-bolt design can transmit higher torque than the 6- or 4-bolt designs, it does not allow for much angular misalignment. In addition, couplings can be equipped with overload bushings to protect the discs during momentary torsional overloads.

Main features

  • Complies with regulations for potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX and A.P.I. 671/610)
  • Eliminates the need for lubrication and coupling maintenance
  • The coupling can be inspected without dismantling it
  • It is possible to inspect the discs with a strobe light while the machine is running (Note: it is not recommended that couplings operate without coupling guards).
  • Misalignment of equipment easily assessable
  • Torsionally rigid with no backlash
  • No wearing parts
  • Resistance to harsh environments
  • Extended service life if dimensions and alignment are correct
  • High power density (higher torque for each given outer diameter)
  • Unified discs ensure the repeatability necessary to meet the balance and connection requirements specified by the API-610 standard
  • ATEX Certified for SU, SX, DI, SXC, SXCS, SXCST, DIR, DILR, DIRA, and DIRLA
