Mechanical Friction Torque Limiter – NEMA Frame

Overload Protection Between Motor and Gear Box or Other Flanged Components

Function: Overload Protection
Drive Arrangement: Motor to Gear Reducer (Gear Box)

Operation

Continuously engaged friction torque limiter slips when torque setting is exceeded. Continues to slip until overload ceases.

Applications

  • Momentary overload protection.
  • Torque limiters are not recommended in continuous slip or tension control applications. A SensiFlex® tension control clutch or brake should be used instead.
  • Maximum RPM varies by model. Please consult the detail sheets (below). Consult engineering if the intended application exceeds the listed maximum RPM.

Design Features

  • No reset required after torque limiter slips.
  • Enclosed design with aluminum, clear anodized aluminum or stainless steel housing.
  • Torque setting is factory set at value specified by user.
  • Torque adjustment nut can not be manipulated without disassembly of the housing.

Mounting

  • Models listed  have enclosed, aluminum housings
  • Clear anodized and stainless housing are also available. If needed, please contact engineering.
