Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and applications for Housing Freewheels FH, designed for stationary multi-motor drives with roller lift-off. These freewheels are used as overrunning clutches at high speeds, allowing continuous operation even if one energy source fails.
Specifications: Housing Freewheels FH feature nominal torques up to 81,350 Nm and shaft diameters up to 178 mm. They offer wear-free operation, low noise, low power dissipation, and include an integrated oil filtration system and locking brake. The hydrodynamic roller lift-off mechanism ensures efficient operation by using an oil film to minimize wear.
Applications: These freewheels are ideal for multi-motor drives in generators, pumps, ventilators, fans, and uninterrupted power supplies. They automatically disengage a drive when it no longer provides power, requiring no external operating equipment.
Advantages: The freewheels allow for energy savings during partial load operations and ensure immediate torque transfer once synchronous speed is reached. They are particularly beneficial in systems where dynamic processes cause high peak torques.
Selection and Mounting: The document outlines the calculation of selection torque (MA) using the formula MA = K · ML, where K is the operating factor and ML is the load torque. It recommends an operating factor K of at least 1.5. The freewheel size should be selected to ensure MN ≥ MA, where MN is the nominal torque. Proper mounting involves using torsionally stiff shaft couplings to minimize reactive forces.
Technical Data: A table provides detailed specifications for various freewheel sizes, including nominal torque, maximum speed, shaft dimensions, and weight. The maximum transmissible torque is twice the specified nominal torque.
Additional Features: The integrated locking brake prevents the driving parts from being carried along during freewheeling operation. The document also includes guidelines for ordering and mounting the freewheels.

Application as ► Overrunning Clutch at high speeds, which are the same or similar in freewheeling operation and in driving operation. Housing Freewheels FH with hydrodynamic roller lift-off are typically used in cases where an assembly can be driven from two or more motors or turbines at the same or similar high speed. They allow a continuous plant operation in the event that one of the energy sources or a drive line fails as well as energy saving in the case of partial load operation. The Housing Freewheels FH are completely enclosed freewheels for stationary arrangement with input and output shaft. • Wear-free operation • Integrated oil filtration system • Integrated locking brake • Oil change without down time Hydrodynamic roller lift-off Housing Freewheels FH are equipped with hydrodynamic roller lift-off. The hydrodynamic roller lift-off is the ideal solution for overrunning clutches at high speeds, not only in freewheeling operation, but also in the driving operation, as can occur, for example, in multi-motor drives. In the case of hydrodynamic roller lift-off, the lifting force is generated by an oil film applied during freewheeling operation by centrifugal force exerted on the outer ring race. This provides for practically wear-free freewheeling operation. The speed differential between the inner and outer rings is the decisive factor affecting the lift-off function. If the speed differential decreases, the lift-off force also decreases. Before achieving synchronous running, the clamping rollers guided in a cage are positioned with the aid of the central spring system against the outer ring race and are then ready to lock. This guarantees immediate torque transfer once the synchronous speed has been reached.

Type hydrodynamic roller lift-off The maximum transmissible torque is 2 times the specified nominal torque. See page 14 for determination of selection torque. Keyway according to USAS B17.1-1967 During freewheeling operation, the stationary input shaft of the Housing Freewheel is effected by a drag torque from the freewheeling output shaft. By manually activation of the in the housing freewheel integrated locking brake the driving parts are prevented from being carried along. The Housing Freewheel must be mounted in such a way that shaft dl is the input shaft and shaft d2 the output shaft. We...
