FEATURES

The variable fill fluid coupling allows a disconnect of the motor from the load granting the following advantages:

  • motor start up at no load
  • smooth start up even possible under nominal motor current by full starting control
  • shock and overload protection
  • absorbtion of vibrations
  • high radial load capacity (KPTE)
  • no belt slip
  • remote control by electric valve
  • load positioning
  • cheap and easy maintenance due to external mounting of main accessories like oil filter, feeding pump and control valve
  • longer life thanks to no friction linings to wear out
  • accurate variable speed performances
