-N couplings with attachments that can generate heat, sparks and static charging
(e. g. combinations with brake drums, brake disks, overload systems like torque limiters,
fans etc.) are not permitted for the use in hazardous locations.
A separate analysis must be performed.
2 Advice
2.1 Coupling selection
!
C A U T I O N !
For a long-lasting and failure-free operation of the coupling it must be selected according to
the selection instructions for the particular application (see RIGIFLEX
®
-N catalogue).
If the operating conditions (performance, speed, modifications on engine and machine)
change, the coupling selection must be reviewed again.
Please note that the technical data regarding torque refer to the lamina set only. The trans-
mittable torque of the shaft/hub connection must be reviewed by the customer and is sub-
ject to his responsibility.
For drives subject to torsional vibrations (drives with cyclic stress due to torsional vibrations) it is necessary to
perform a torsional vibration calculation to ensure a reliable selection. Typical drives subject to torsional vibrations
are e. g. drives with diesel engines, piston pumps, piston compressors etc. If requested, KTR will perform the
coupling selection and the torsional vibration calculation.
2.2 General advice
Please read through these assembly instructions carefully before you start up the coupling.
Please pay special attention to the safety instructions!
The
RIGIFLEX
®-
N
coupling is suitable and approved for the use in hazardous locations. When using
the coupling in hazardous locations please observe the special advice and instructions regarding
safety in enclosure A.
The assembly instructions are part of your product. Please keep them carefully and close to the coupling.
