Rotomec Hydromechanical Coupling

Rotomec Hydromechanical Coupling

ROTOMEC hydromechanical coupling consists in a fluid coupling with a centrifugal coupling inside. The hydraulic unit acts as a starter, causing the driven machine to accelerate almost to operating speed. At the end of the first launching phase, the centrifugal coupling mechanically engages the transmission, eliminating the slip between the driving part (Motor) and the driven one (Machine).

• ”Soft”, smoother start-up of the driven machine
• Reduction of current peaks in the start-up phase
• Once the start-up phase is over, no slip between motor and machine side.
• Suitability for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
