SAFETY NOTICE

Installation and operation of this product should only be carried out by skilled personnel.

Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer or accredited RINGSPANN agents.

If a malfunction is indicated, the product or the machine into which it is installed, should be
stopped immediately and either RINGSPANN or an accredited RINGSPANN agent should be in-
formed.

Switch off the power supply before commencing work on electrical components.

Rotating machine elements must be protected by the purchaser to prevent accidental contact.

Supplies abroad are subject to the safety laws prevailing in those countries.

1. General information
1.1 Function:
RLK 402 Cone Clamping Elements are internal clamping connections for backlash free fastening
of hubs on shafts. By tightening clamping screws surfaces are pulled together generating radial
forces; these forces create a frictional connection between the Cone Clamping Element and the
shaft as well as the hub. Torques or axial forces can be transmitted from the shaft via the Cone
Clamping Element to the hub.

1.2 General safety instructions:
Caution! Danger of injury!
The immediate vicinity of the rotating shrink disc must be kept clear of body
parts, hair, clothing and other objects at all times.

2. Configuration and function
The RLK 402 Cone Clamping Element consist of two inner rings 1 + 2 with outside cone and an
outer ring 4 with inside cone as well as a number of clamping screws 3.( see Fig. 1). The inner
rings are drawn against each other by tightening the clamping screws. Radial clamping forces
are generated by the conical surfaces which are dependent on the torques of the clamping
screws, the cone angel and the friction coefficients at the screws and conical surface. The radial
clamping forces press the outer ring into the hub bore and the inner rings onto the shaft and cre-
ate a friction connection at the respective contact surfaces. In this way, torque and/or axial force
can be transmitted between the shaft and the hub.

4. Proper use
The RLK 402 Cone Clamping Elements are designed for installation between the shaft and the
hub bore. They are intended solely for the friction-tight mounting of hubs or to shafts in order to
transmit torque and/or axial forces. All other uses are prohibited. RINGSPANN shall not be liable
for damages caused by improper use. The user bears all resulting risks.

5. Improper use
The RLK 402 Cone Clamping Elements are not suitable for:
for the direct mounting of hollow shafts to solid shafts or
as torque-limiting safety devices.

6. Condition on delivery
The clamping elements are delivered in tension-free condition. The clamping elements are
wrapped in anti-corrosive packing material are ready to install as delivered.

7. Technical requirements for safe, reliable operation
In order to achieve full transmission of torque and/or axial forces, tolerance on contact-pressure
surfaces
may not exceed tolerance class h8 for shafts
or tolerance class H8 for hub bores.
In addition, pressure-contact surfaces on shafts and hubs must have a mean peak-to-valley
height R
a
< 3,2 m.
Shaft and hub must be manufactured from materials with the following mechanical properties:
E-module about 170 kN/mm
2


8. Mounting
8.1 Clean the contact surfaces between the shaft and the hub thoroughly.
8.2 Apply a light coat of oil to the clamping element.

Do not use oil which contains molybdenum disulphide or high-pressure additives,
and do not use grease!
8.3 Insert the clamping element in the hub of the part to be clamped and push it onto the shaft.
Apply pressure only to the clamping screw heads on the front inner ring.

Note: When used in closed-end bores or on shaft shoulders, an axial play for
dismantling the rear inner ring should be kept.

8.4 Tighten the clamping screws diagonally across by hand while aligning the hub..

Dont start to tighten the screws located directly to the right and to the left of
the slit!

8.5 With a torque wrench tighten the clamping screws diagonally across with half the tightening
torque M
s
. (see section 11). Continue once clockwise with half tightening torque M
s
.

8.6 Tighten the clamping screws one after the other with the full tightening torque M
s
.

Dont start to tighten the screws located directly to the right and to the left of
the slit!

The tightening process is only completed when none of the screws can be
turned at the full specified torque M
s
any further.

Replace missing or damaged clamping screws with identical screws of
strength class 12.9 only!

9. Dismantling
9.1 All tightening screws completely unscrew from the cone clamping
element.
9.2 Insert as much of the screws in the front inner ring them into the re-
lease holes, turning until they abut he flange of ring. (see Fig. 2)
Note: To facilitate the installation process, grind and grease the
faces of the thread ends of the press-off screws as well as the
threads. This reduces friction loss.
9.3 Tighten the screws in the release holes crosswise in multiple steps
until the front inner ring is loosened. Remove the ring.
9.4 Insert as much of the screws in the flange of outer ring them into the
release holes, turning until they abut with the rear inner ring. (see
Fig. 3)
9.5 Tighten the screws in the released holes uniformly in a crosswise
sequence in multiple steps until the rear inner ring is loosened.
9.6 Remove the clamping devices together with the machine component
from the shaft.

10. Maintenance
The RLK 402 Cone Clamping Elements are maintenance-free. However, signs of loosening may
appear in connections during operation. We therefore recommend checking the tightening tor-
ques of the clamping screws during each time maintenance is performed on the machine.
