About CENTAXMAX COUPLING
The CENTAMAX series boasts an incredibly efficient self-ventilating design. The high thermal capacity (HTC) configuration offers an outstanding permissible power loss compared to traditional couplings. This results in an extended lifespan for equipment in modern, highly torsional low-emission diesel engine systems.
The HTC design not only makes CENTAMAX a cost-effective solution but also allows for the use of more economical coupling designs in numerous applications. The rubber-in-shear design’s torsional flexibility and elasticity strategically shift critical resonances below operational speed. Consequently, the drive experiences only minimal continuous vibratory torques, safeguarding and prolonging the life of your equipment.
CENTAMAX provides rubber elements in varying degrees of shore hardness. Additionally, CENTAMAX elements are available in higher temperature materials such as CENTALAN-HT or silicone when needed. This flexibility facilitates easy adjustments to the torsional flexibility of the couplings.
Torsional vibrations are effectively dampened, and resonance is significantly reduced, minimizing the impact on your driven equipment. A key feature of CENTAMAX is its built-in overload protection. When faced with extreme loads due to torque overloads or generator short circuits, the flexible coupling smoothly slips through cogged outer teeth, shielding the engine and surrounding units from overload damage.
CENTAMAX offers a plethora of plug-in variations, ensuring straightforward assembly with minimal mounting effort. The hubs can be tailored to fit various mounting and application conditions. Crafted with the utmost standards in design and quality, CENTAMAX coupling systems stand as a dependable and trustworthy choice.
Features of Coupling
Versatile Rubber Components:
Accessible in various Shore hardness options, facilitating the adjustment of torsional flexibility in couplings with exceptional adaptability to specific applications.
Adequate Ventilation:
All CENTAMAX couplings are efficiently ventilated. The HTC-coupling type stands out with an outstanding permissible power loss, surpassing that of conventional couplings.
Safety in Failure:
Opting for flexibility over fragility during extreme loads caused by mal-synchronization or short-circuits, the coupling gracefully yields. This ensures that, rather than breaking, it adeptly slips through, providing a protective measure for the engine and interconnected units against overload.
CENTAMAX-S
The CENTAMAX-S stands out as a highly dependable rubber-in-shear solution designed for efficiently transmitting substantial torques. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the CENTAMAX-S proves to be an ideal choice for confined spaces. Torque transmission in the CENTAMAX-S is achieved through an interlocked, toothed outer ring, ensuring a reliable and high-torque transfer with a distinctive high torsional flexibility featuring linear characteristics. This coupling effectively dampens torsional vibrations and absorbs shock loads.
CENTAMAX-HTC
The CENTAMAX-HTC has been fine-tuned to accommodate higher permissible power loss, making it an optimal choice for drives exposed to severe torsional vibrations. Torque transmission in the CENTAMAX-HTC is facilitated through a toothed outer ring onto a rubber-in-shear element, strategically divided into slender sections. This meticulously designed coupling is axially compact, making it particularly suitable for applications demanding high torque. Through enhancements in surface area, superior heat dissipation, and more efficient ventilation, the CENTAMAX-HTC emerges as a robust solution for modern low-emission diesel engines.
CENTAMAX-G
The CENTAMAX-G has been specifically engineered to cater to generator and pump drives with significant torsional activity. Torque transmission occurs through the interlocked outer flywheel flange, ensuring a robust connection to the rubber element. This coupling is also furnished with CENTALAN-HT elastomer, a synthetic material known for its high-temperature tolerance, strategically developed to match the dynamic characteristics of natural rubber mixtures.
