6 Operation
The coupling parameters must be observed (TSCHAN TORMAX
Catalogue). These may
not be exceeded except with written permission from TSCHAN GmbH.
In order to guarantee fault-free, enduring operating of the coupling, it must be dimensioned in
accordance with dimensioning regulations, e.g. pursuant to DIN 740, Part 2 (or TSCHAN
TORMAX
Catalogue), with an application factor appropriate to the respective operating
conditions.
Any change in operating conditions or parameters makes an examination of the coupling
dimensioning necessary.
Injury hazard!
Switch off the drive before commencing any work on the coupling!
Secure the drive against accidental activation and rotation!
Incorrectly tightened screws can lead to parts flying off and serious
personal injury and material damage!
Before commissioning the coupling, check the alignment and all
screw connections for the prescribed torque and tightness of fit!
Before commissioning the equipment, all devices for protection
against accidental contact with moving or rotating parts must be
installed.
To avoid sparks, use stainless steel covers!
As a minimum, the covers must comply with the IP2X protective
system.
The covers should be designed such that no dust can settle on the
coupling components.
The cover may not contact the coupling and hinder its correct
functioning in any way.
When the coupling is operating please monitor:
Changes in running noises
Vibrations
Missing components
Attention!
•
If you notice any irregularities while the coupling is operating, switch off the drive
immediately.
•
Using Table 1, “Operating faults and their possible causes”, below, find the cause of the
fault and remedy it.
The faults listed are only a few examples to help you troubleshooting.
•
All machine components and operating conditions must be taken into
consideration for fault-finding and remedy!
