Two part assembly for installation into prefabricated coupling components
Part 1: detent receptacle
Part 2: self-contained, spring loaded plunger module. The spring force setting is adjustable in the field, with the settings clearly marked on an adjustment scale.
Re-engagement
The modules are re-engaged by applying an axial force to the plunger when a synchronized angularity of the drive and driven side is present.
Materials
Hardened steel (nitrocarburized surface)
Service life
R+W bellows couplings are fatigue resistant and wear free for an infinite service life, as long as the technical limits are not exceeded
Fit clearance
Overall shaft / hub clearance of 0.01 – 0.05 mm
Special solutions
Various materials, tolerances, dimensions and performance ratings available for custom applications on request
ATEX (Optional)
For use in hazardous zones 1/21 and 2/22, the metal bellows has been authorized under directive 94/9/EG and is available with certification
