WESTCAR ROTOFLUID HYDRODYNAMIC COUPLING TYPE K, SCF, DCF

WESTCAR ROTOFLUID COUPING TYPE K, SCF, DCF

    - Made by Westcar, Italy.

    - Made in ITALY.

    A fluid coupling or hydraulic coupling Westcar is a hydrodynamic device used to transmit rotating mechanical power.It has been used in automobile transmissions as an alternative to a mechanical clutch. It also has widespread application in marine and industrial machine drives, where variable speed operation and controlled start-up without shock loading of the power transmission system is essential.

THE ADVANTAGES OF USING ROTOFLUID COUPLINGS WESTCAR:

    • Easy start-up with gradual acceleration of the driven component
    • Automatic load speed adjustement on the basis of the synchronous speed of two ore more motors
    • The drive train is protected againts overloads
    • Torsional vibrations are dampened
    • The tourque transmitted complies with pre-set values
    • Direct on-line start electric motors can be used, without star-delta starters or slip-ring motors with rheostat
