Magnetic couplings and wet rotors are key features contributing to the technology.
Evaluate elastomeric and metallic couplings for an application.
Power plants with boiler feed pumps are finding more efficiency.
Pulp and paper plant faced a multimillion dollar revenue loss without an immediate fix.
An in-depth explanation of the differences between these two choices.
Lower coupling restoring forces can increase bearing and seal life.
One unique design transmits torque across the disc pack assemblies purely by friction, helping to prevent issues associated with stress concentration, backlash and chatter.
Some pumps were running with high vibration levels, while the disc couplings were failing on a regular basis.
Users should consider these important factors when choosing the best equipment for their applications.
Vibration and maintenance were reduced with the installation of carefully selected equipment.
A new series of API 610 couplings are designed to be wear and maintenance free and reduce problems associated with stress concentration, backlash and micro-movements.
Proper condition monitoring and intervention could have prevented a pump breakdown.
