CAUTION!
Drive and coupling of a system that is used for
conveying explosive material must comply with the
Directive 2014/34/EC (ATEX) with respect to
equipment category, temperature class and
explosion group.
ATTENTION!
– Selection and design are within the
responsibility of the system builder.
– Do not route axial forces into the VacuStar WR
shaft when installing drive components.
– Do not tap couplings or other connection
components onto the shaft, but slide them on.
– Always slide additional components such as V
belt pulleys as far onto the shaft of the
VacuStar WR as possible.
– Check the torque and the sense of rotation.
The VacuStar WR is driven via:
V-belt
Articulated shaft
Flexible coupling
where drives such as lorry P.T.O, electric motors, hydraulic motors
or diesel engine are possible.
6.11.1 V belt drive
ATTENTION!
The maximum permitted transverse force (FQ) at
the drive shaft due to the belt pull must not exceed
the following values:
VacuStar WR 2500 / WR 3100 FQ= 9300 N
VacuStar WR 4000
FQ= 12500 N
Observe the design, installation and inspection
instructions of the manufacturer.
