Fig.2 Torque transmission
In overrun operation, above the minimum permissible overrunning speed, the centrifugal
force, in connection with the geometry of the clamping elements, generates a force which
turns the clamping elements against the spring force (see Fig. 3). A contact-free position is
brought about in this way so that wear-free operation of the one-way clutch can be achieved.
The minimum permissible overrunning speed may only be lower for a short period during the
start-up or shut-down stage otherwise the damage to the contact partner caused by wear
and tear may lead to the failure of the one-way clutch.

NOTE
The local provisions regarding the disposal of transport and
packaging materials are to be observed.
One-way clutches of Type RSXM31-RSXM101 are packaged in non-absorbent corrosion
protection paper. All components are sent in a box.
To prevent the component from breaking or falling apart they are fixed with a cable clip.
