Centrifugal clutches and brakes

From page 6

•

Load-free starting, speed-dependent load take-up, clutches slip when overloaded

•

Smaller (less expensive) motors

•

Nearly slip-free torque transmission at operating speed General technical explanations Page 6

F-Type

Self-increasing clutch Page 8

• Compact design, self-increasing torque • Wear parts easy to replace • Performance factor for torque transmission: ca. 2.5

S-Type

Pin-guided clutch with three flyweights Page 10

• Robust construction • Bonded linings • Very smooth running • Performance factor for torque transmission: ca. 1.5

W-Type

Pin-guided clutch with two flyweights Page 12

• Wearing parts easy to replace • Very smooth running • Performance factor for torque transmission: ca. 1.0

P-Type

Asymmetric pivot clutch Page 14

• Narrow design • Torque capacity depends on direction of rotation • Performance factor for torque: ca. 1.75 or 1.25 depending on direction • Only available in large sizes • Extremely smooth running
