Fluid Couplings for Diesel Applications
The fluid couplings for diesel applications are hydrodynamic clutches which are directly connected on the diesel engine by a highly flexible coupling. These couplings meet the requirements of a power take off unit with the advantage of a fluid coupling.
Features (depending on model)
- No load Start-up of engine
- Absorbs shock loads
- Dampens torsional vibrations
- Smooth Start-up of driven machine
- Unloaded engine warm up
- Remote control via solenoid valve
- Belt slippage avoided, thus better belt life
- No wearing parts and long life
Applications
Crushers, shredder machines, wood chippers, mills, conveyors, recycling machines, pumps and compressors, fans, ship drives, mixers
