n Application
ARPEX series ARP-6 couplings have been specially developed
for pump drives and specifically for centrifugal pump drives.
Special care was taken to meet the requirements of API 610 and
API 671 (API = American Petroleum Institute). Power is transmit-
ted via close-fitting bolts and nuts from size 310-6 with conical
screw connection and plate packs in hexagonal design. Torques
of between 100 and 17000 Nm can be transmitted at a permitted
angular misalignment of 0.7°. The closed flange shape and a
compact construction permit high peripheral speeds and high
speeds. The intermediate spacer can be fitted radially without
moving the connected units.
Main areas of application for the ARP-6 series:
• Centrifugal pumps
• Boiler feed pumps
• Propeller pumps
• Wing pumps
• Pipeline pumps
• Turbo compressors
• Screw compressors
• Turbo blowers
• Axial, radial blowers
• Rotary-piston blowers
• Fans

The shaft tolerance must be specified in the order. To specify, -Z must be added to the product code and the order codes Y26
and Y27 with plain text specification of the shaft tolerance for D1 and D2 must be added as well.

Jumbo hubs for larger shaft diameters. Ordering example:
G and J hubs in split clamping hub variant. ARPEX ARF-6 GG coupling, size 132-6,
The hub variant with keyway rates as standard. Optionally, the for shaft diameter 'D1 45h6 mm, without keyway,
shaft/hub connection can be implemented without keyway as a for shaft diameter 'D2 50k6 mm, with keyway to DIN 6885-1,
pure clamping seat. keyway width P9.
For specification of plate pack, see under spare parts. Product code: 2LC0420-2AB99-0AA0-Z
L1A+M1C+L45+Y26+Y27
