Industrial SU Sort
The SU Sort coupling has a single flex plane with two hubs plus a single disc pack. It really is suitable for angular and axial misalignment only. Two SU couplings tend to be mixed having a shaft
to create a floating shaft coupling. The shaft can be hollow for prolonged light excess weight floating shaft couplings.
Industrial SX Form
This is often the regular coupling style that consists of two hubs, a stock length spacer built to meet industry common lengths, and two unitized disc packs. The coupling has two flex planes, 1 at every disc pack, allowing this coupling to accommodate parallel, angular, and axial misalignment with specified limits. The coupling is accessible in 6 and eight bolt styles and bore sizes as much as 13 inches (330mm) over the greatest size. Custom spacer lengths could be produced to meet exclusive shaft separations required for particular applications. The SX coupling can be fitted with overload bushings to guard the disc packs in in excess of torque circumstances and might act as an anti-flail device. SX couplings are assembled with the time of set up within the tools in which the coupling is going to be in services.
Industrial DI Sort
The DI Kind coupling features a “Drop-In” spacer assembly that may be assembled at the factory. The coupling consists of two hubs as well as a spacer assembly comprising on the spacer, two unitized disc packs, and two guard rings. The disc packs are bolted for the spacer and guard rings in the factory applying the torque values suggested by Lovejoy for the disc pack bolts. Together with the hubs mounted within the shafts, the whole disc pack assembly is usually “Dropped In” location among the 2 hubs. The hubs are piloted to guarantee appropriate centering on the spacer assembly. This piloting serves as an anti-flail function and aids in the coupling’s potential to meet the balance standards mandated by API. This design coupling is developed to meet the stability and anti-flail specifications specified in API-610.
Oversized, or Jumbo, hubs are available for use together with the DI Sort coupling to permit for bigger bore sizes on most DI coupling sizes. This permits for that use of smaller sized DI couplings in applications where a smaller sized dimension coupling can still accommodate the application torque.
Industrial SXC Sort
The SXC Form is the shut coupled variation of the SX Variety coupling. The SXC is much like the SX coupling in the disc packs are attached once the coupling is installed. In the close coupled units, the hubs are turned inward and are mounted within the spacer. Note that together with the hubs within the spacer, the utmost bore permitted inside the hub is going to be decreased. The SXC couplings might be utilized with 1 or each hubs turned outward to permit the coupling to accommodate distinctive shaft separations.
Industrial SXCS and SXCST Styles
The SXCS and SXCST Forms have split spacers and also the disc packs might be serviced or removed without moving the hubs to the shafts and devoid of moving the equipment. The SXCS Form has the bolts that connect the hubs on the split spacer installed from the ends with the couplings. The SXCST possess the bolts set up from inside the spacer pointing outward in direction of the hubs.
