Continue: Variations to the Euroflex Design

The design criteria employed by Euroflex ensures the couplings have:

Characteristics of Euroflex Couplings

• No Lubrication & Zero Maintenance - The Euroflex Coupling is a dry coupling not requiring any lubrication. The coupling also has no relative moving parts and maintenance is reduced to a periodic visual inspection, during any convenient shut down.
• Low End Thrust and Bending Moment - When compared to gear couplings the end thrust and bending moments in Euroflex Couplings are considerably lesser and more importantly they are smoothly applied.
• High Torsional Rigidity -Euroflex Couplings are torsionally rigid with zero backlash.
• High Temperature Operations - The absence of lubrication and usage of special materials makes Euroflex Couplings suitable for high temperature operations.
• Electrical Insulation - Insulating materials are employed where necessary to prevent the flow of eddy currents, which would otherwise cause bearing damage in the accompanying rotary machinery.
• High Torque Capacity with Low Weight - Euroflex can offer a wide range of couplings to met all possible torque requirements and by using light and high strength alloys for components, reductions in weight can be achieved.
• Good Dynamic Balance - Residual unbalance of the Euroflex coupling is kept to the minimum by ensuring concentricity of the coupling parts.
• Compliance to International Standards - Euroflex Couplings conform to most international standards including API 671 and is ISO 9001 compliant.
• Emergency Drive Features - All Euroflex Couplings have inbuilt emergency drive features to ensure torque transmission under exceptionally high overloads and consequent flexing element failure.
• Torque Limiting Feature - Shear Pins can be provided in Euroflex Coupling for meeting torque limiting applications.
