► SELECTION FOR Slf� FLEXIBLE COUPLING

► Obtain Shaft Sizes
Compare shaft sizes of driving and driven equipment with listed bores of desired Series coupling
to determine II Tentative II coupling size.
► Compute effective kW/rpm OR hp/rpm OR Torque to be transmitted select a service factor from above table,

Determine kW/rpm

kW/rpm = kW TRANSMIT T ED X SERVICE FACTOR

(effective) rpm

OR determine hp/rpm

hp/rpm = hp TRANSMITTED X SERVICE FACTOR

(effective) rpm

OR determine Toque (daNm)

Torque = 955 x kW TRANSMITTED x SERVICE FACTOR

(effective) rpm

Confirm Tentative coupling size or increase to a size which has a rating equal to or greater than value computed above.
► Check Maximum Speed of Application Refer to maximum speed ratings. T hese speeds are given only as a guide since the
maximum speed depends on the system characteristics.
► Check Space Limitations Dimensions of the selected coupling should be compared with space provided in the application to
assure proper clearances. Shaft extensions (should be greater than the hub length of coupling), separation and clearances to
align coupling as well as for removal of pins should be checked.
