HYDRAULIC TENSIONER FOR HEAVY DUTY LONG LIFE APPLICATIONS Hutchinson hydraulically damped tensioners are suitable for extreme use conditions, in applications requiring automatic belt tension control, with a demanding dynamic behaviour. - Long Lifetime in heavy duty environments due to its rubber encapsulation. (Totally sealed and shock protected) - High asymmetric damping performance. CHARACTERISTICS Linear tensioners: several ranges of length and stiness available. Long lifetime in heavy-duty environments: - Metal inserted rubber bush. - Rubber over-moulded spring guarantees the internal parts are totally sealed and protected. - Hydraulic damping. - High performance oil damping system.. - Optimised and sealed arm pivot bushes for ultimate life. High asymmetric damping performance. RANGE Tensioner sized for K-profile Poly V® belts up to 12 ribs. ADVANTAGES High asymmetric damping – Fit and Forget with no need to ajust belt tension in use.. Provides a consistent belt tension level over the working range and lifetime. = Longer belt and drive life. No loss of performance over time. Arm specifically designed for each application.. Compact product with a maximum of standard elements (idlers, tensioner, arm bushings). Long lifetime (>10,000 hrs). APPLICATIONS High-power industrial engines, demanding environments (temperature, dust, etc.): agricultural vehicle engines, marine applications, army vehicles, construction vehicles, mining and quarrying vehicles, refrigerated vehicles, power generators, etc. CONTACTS HUTCHINSON DISTRIBUTOR HUTCHINSON BELT DRIVE SYSTEMS Rue des Martyrs – BP 423 – 37304 Joué-lès-Tours Cedex – France Tél.: +33 (0)2 47 48 39 99 – Fax : +33 (0)2 47 48 38 34 [email protected] www.hutchinsontransmission.com April 2015, non-contractual document.
