Overview: The document discusses ROSTA Motorbases, which are self-tensioning motor mounts designed for friction belt drives. These motorbases provide benefits such as slippage-free operation, maintenance-free tensioning, and extended belt life.
Key Features:- Prevents short-term slippage during start-up to avoid excessive belt tension.
- Allows quick belt changes without complex pulley adjustments.
- Maintenance-free system that eliminates the need for periodic belt elongation compensation.
Customer Benefits:- Reduces slack and heat generation, preventing premature belt failure.
- Maintains ideal belt tension for constant torque transmission and reduced energy consumption.
- Ensures noiseless power transmission and can extend belt lifespan up to three times.
Selection Guide: A selection table is included for ROSTA Motorbases based on motor frame sizes, power ratings, and motor types (IEC and NEMA standards).
Installation Instructions:- Provides detailed mounting instructions for various motorbase types (MB 27, MB 38, MB 50, MB 70, MB 100), including ideal positioning, support fixations, and tensioning procedures.
- Retensioning is generally unnecessary but recommended after initial operation.
Technical Specifications:- Includes a test force table for V-belt installation, specifying ideal belt tensioning forces.
- Offers calculation examples for tensioning motorbases, detailing parameters like pulley diameters, motor power, and belt forces.
Customization: Customized motorbase designs are available for special applications, such as fan drives and cooling compressors.
Contact Information: Contact details for ROSTA are provided for further inquiries or specific motor frame sizes not mentioned.
