YOXVS Connection Dimension Data Sheet for Torque-Limiting Fluid Coupling with Extended Rear Auxiliary Chamber and Side Auxiliary Chamber

Note: Structural characteristics, performance, and selection precautions:

• Not only is the rear auxiliary chamber extended, but a side auxiliary chamber is also added, making the total capacity of the auxiliary chambers approximately equal to the effective volume of the working chamber.
• During overload, the working fluid flows from the working chamber into the auxiliary chambers, reducing the fluid fill level in the working chamber to a very low level. As a result, the torque transmission capacity is reduced, and the overload protection capability is enhanced.
• During start-up, the fluid is split between the rear auxiliary chamber and the side auxiliary chamber, significantly lowering the oil fill level in the working chamber. In addition, with the rear auxiliary chamber being extended, the refilling time from the rear auxiliary chamber to the working chamber is prolonged, making the start-up even "softer."
• The axial dimension is relatively long, and attention must be paid to strict alignment in accordance with the specified requirements during installation.

 Functions and Applications of Torque-Limiting Fluid Coupling

Functions: Provides light-load start-up, overload protection, impact dampening, torsional vibration isolation, load equalization for multi-drive systems, flexible braking, and energy efficiency.

1. The motor starts under near-no-load conditions, reducing starting time and starting current, and minimizing impact on the power grid.
2. It allows starting with the motor's peak torque, thereby enhancing the motor's starting capability and avoiding the "over-sized motor for under-sized load" phenomenon. Compared with rigid drives, it can reduce the motor frame size by at least one grade.
3. It enables the use of economical and low-cost squirrel-cage motors as a replacement for expensive wound-rotor motors.
4. It protects both the motor and the driven machine from damage during overload conditions, reduces failure rates, and extends service life.
5. The starting torque of the driven machine can be controlled, allowing extremely smooth starting and acceleration of heavy-load, high-inertia equipment.
6. As a flexible drive, it cushions impact loads and isolates torsional vibrations.
7. In multi-motor drive systems, it enables sequential start-up of the motors, balanced load sharing, and synchronized operation.
8. It provides wear-free power transmission, with no direct mechanical friction except for bearings and oil seals.
9. It is easy to operate, maintain, and service, with low maintenance costs and a long service life.
10. It features low initial investment and high cost-effectiveness, with energy-saving rates reaching 8–15%.
