Stainless Steel Coupling: Safety Clutches SK
Precision Torque Limiter Series SK1 out of Stainless Steel
Optional: Torque Limiter SK1 made of stainless steel.
The protection of torque overload is often overlooked in machine design until something jams resulting in expensive damage and down time. The R+W Series SK1 Torque Limiter was developed specifically for this purpose. It uses a reliable ball detent system that is absolutely backlash-free and will disengage within 1 to 3 milliseconds when an overload is detected.
Four versions of function principles are available including a single
position, multi-position, load holding, and free wheeling.
These Torque Limiters and Safety Couplings are preset
in the factory to a customer specified disengagement torque
and can be adjusted in
the field after installation.
The Torque Limiter SK1 can be integrated into timing pulleys, sheaves,
and sprocket wheels for a torque range of 0.2 to 1500 Nm (1.8
to 13,275 in. lbs.).
It is shaft mounted using a clamping hub, taper conical sleeve
or a pure keyway connection for shaft sizes from 4 to 70 mm
(0.16 to 2.76
in.).
