The next info ought to be provided to when placing an order to guarantee the proper selection of the disc coupling:
Application and variety of duty
Type of driver (engine, motor, turbine, etc.)
Pace and horsepower
Type of driven
Shaft sizes and separation
Space limitations for major diameter and length
Variety of fit (Interference match default, clearance match and shaft locking device preparation obtainable upon request)
Special needs (vertical mounting, drop out center, flange mount, electrically insulated, API-610 as much as 3,800 RPM, shear pins, balancing, etc.)
Angular misalignment, axial misalignment, and rated torque are all linked to your 
coupling’s capability to accommodate application torque above any time period of time. As illustrated inside the following charts, once the application torque increases to 50% in the coupling capability, the capability in the coupling to accommodate angular misalignment to is decreased. Exactly the same holds true for your ability to accommodate axial misalignment.
Assortment Process
one. Select the coupling form.
two. Select the driven machine support aspect SFA
3. Select the driving machine support issue SFD
Care need to be taken when the driving machine is other than a common electrical motor or turbine. Some engines will impose added fluctuations about the drive system and allowance ought to be manufactured accordingly. A torsional coupling may possibly be necessary for diesel drives.
