Fans and HVAC Systems

Sheaves, couplings, and overrunning clutches are utilized on large fans used for cooling and air supply. High Speed Double Helical Speed Reducers are used on the main drive for HVAC Systems in underground mines.

These torsionally stiff, light weight couplings are capable of transmitting high torques at high speeds while accepting significant levels of angular, radial, and axial misalignment. They are easy to install, suitable for hostile environments, require no lubrication and feature a high torque to weight ratio. Specific designs are available which meet the customer’s exact requirements. Standard units are compliant with API 671 (American Petroleum Institute) and ATEX 94/9/EC.

Floating shaft couplings are specifically designed for long span applications from 24” to over 300”. Tru-Tube composite tubes (shown) can be specified for spans up to 220” (6 meters). Composite tubes weigh up to 80% less than steel and can eliminate the cost of bearing supports and other structures.

Horizontal or vertical applications
   
Custom designed to specification



GC Series couplings feature unitized, straight-sided flexible discs for ease of installation. Up-to-date design targeted specifically for heavy industrial applications. These couplings provide increased torque capacity per size by taking advantage of the latest materials and design technologies.

Unitized Flex Packs
   
Easier, faster installation
   
Interchangeable with industry standard designs
   
Fewer sizes to cover a full range of applications
   
Reduced spare parts inventory
   
Lower total cost of ownership
   
Special designs avaiable for higher-torque applications
