It includes oil filling quantities for FN, FG, and FV series and outlines the design features of FLUDEX couplings, such as robust components and radial unset blades.
Design and Configurations
FLUDEX couplings are designed with components like hollow or solid shafts, blade wheels, and outer housings. They can be fitted in multiple orientations and are suitable for rotation in both directions.
Benefits
These couplings limit starting and maximum torque, provide overload protection, and isolate torsional vibration. They are used in conveyor systems, heavy industry applications, and drives with diesel engines.
Applications
FLUDEX couplings are applicable in conveyor systems, blade wheel drives, crushers, mixers, and auxiliary drives for mills. They also serve as decoupling means during torsional vibration excitation.
Materials and Safety Features
Constructed from materials like steel, cast aluminum, and grey cast iron, the couplings include safety features such as fusible safety plugs and thermal switching equipment to prevent overheating.
Partnership and Distribution
The document announces a distribution partnership with jbj Techniques Limited in the UK, enhancing the supply of optimized N-EUPEX couplings.
Technical Specifications
FLUDEX couplings are balanced according to DIN ISO 21940 standards, operate in temperatures from -40°C to +40°C, and can be delivered with or without oil filling. The starting torque can be adjusted using a delay chamber.
Operating Principles
These couplings require a speed difference between pump and turbine impellers to generate fluid circulation for torque transmission, with a typical slip between 2% and 6% during continuous operation.
Selection and Customization
The document provides guidance on selecting the appropriate FLUDEX type based on operational needs and mentions the availability of customized solutions.
Procedures and Recommendations
Ordering procedures include specifying motor power, bore size, and additional features. Recommendations emphasize proper oil filling and adherence to specified torque values for optimal performance.
Key Data from Tables
Tables provide detailed dimensions, maximum speeds, weights, and oil filling quantities for various coupling sizes, crucial for ensuring proper operation and maintenance.
Conclusion
This document serves as a comprehensive guide for selecting and using FLENDER couplings, emphasizing their design, benefits, and applications in various industrial settings.

Flender Mechanical Power Transmission Couplings available from jbj Techniques FLUDEX couplings are hydrodynamic fluid couplings which operate on the Fottinger principle. FLUDEX® couplings limit starting and maximum torque in the drive train and, through the property of rotational slip, serve as an aid to starting the motor, as overload protection in the event of fault and for isolating torsional vibration. To compensate for shaft misalignment, the FLUDEX® coupling is combined with a displacement coupling e.g. of the N-EUPEX® type. Railway Couplings Couplings for rail vehicles developed, tested...

Fludex® Fluid Couplings Benefits FLUDEX® couplings are hydrodynamic fluid couplings which operate on the Fottinger principle. The coupling parts on the input and output sides are not mechanically connected to each other. Output is transmitted via the oil filling which rotates in the coupling and is conducted over radially arranged blades. FLUDEX® couplings limit starting and maximum torque in the drive train and, through the property of rotational slip, serve as an aid to starting the motor, as overload protection in the event of fault and for isolating torsional vibration. When large masses are...

Fludex® Fluid Couplings Function Föttinger principle Pump impeller Fluid coupling machine Pump Two opposing, radially bladed impellers are housed in a leakproof housing. The impellers are not mechanically connected to each other. Because of the axially parallel arranged blades, the torque is transmitted independently of the direction of rotation and solely by the oil filling. Hydrodynamic couplings have the characteristic properties of fluid flow engines. The transmissible torque depends on the density and quantity of the operating fluid and increases as the square of the drive speed and the fifth...

Fludex® Fluid Couplings Continuous operation Operation of the delay chamber Starting torque can be reduced without increasing continuous operating slip by using a type of coupling with a delay chamber. On these couplings part of the oil filling is initially stored inactively in the delay chamber. The starting torque is considerably reduced because of the thus reduced starting filling in the working chamber of the coupling. The filling in the delay chamber runs very slowly, mostly only at the finish of the starting operation, from the delay chamber into the working chamber, causing the active filling...
