Safegard Type CS Overload Clutches and Couplings

The Safegard CSF Clutch uses a large number of equally spaced balls to provide the drive, and the clutch ratchets from one drive position to the next in the event of an overload. The design allows for high operating speeds, and the possibility to recapture drive in the event of an inertia created overload during starting, but do not provide any synchronisation between input and output.

The Synchron CSY Clutch uses 7 rollers unequally spaced to provide the drive, ensuring that there is only one position of engagement of the drive, enabling full synchronisation between driver and driven shafts.

The Safe Lift CSL Clutch has a retaining ring to prevent disengagement of the drive, but allowing sufficient movement to actuate a limit switch. This clutch is ideal on applications where components cross one another’s path, as synchronisation is maintained even when clutch has overloaded. The clutch also controls forward inertia drives.

The Contact-Free CSZ Clutch totally disengages in the event of an overload, and requires an outside force to be re-engaged. This enables the clutch to be operated at higher speeds, and also to be used on applications where it is undesirable to stop the motor quickly. The requirement of an external force to re-engage ensures the machine can be checked prior to a restart.

Safegard Series Clutches offer the following operating advantages:

  • Long Service Life
  • Cater for Frequent Overloads
  • No Maintenance required
  • Standardised Sizes
  • Continued Operating Reliability
  • Maintained Torque Accuracy
  • Rapid Drive Disengagement
  • Very Fine Torque Adjustment
