9 Operation
When using the coupling attention is to be paid to its characteristics (see „6 Technical data”).
These can in no case be exceeded without having a written agreement from
RINGFEDER
POWER TRANSMISSION
. In order to guarantee a faultless, lasting operation of the
coupling, it must be laid out accord-ing to the regulations e.g. DIN 740 part 2 (or according
to
Product Paper & Tech Paper
”Elastomer Jaw Couplings“
)
with an operating factor
corresponding to its operating conditions. Every change of the conditions of use or the
operating parameters makes an inspection of the coupling layout urgently necessary.
Injury danger!
Switch-off the drive before all work on the coupling!
Secure the drive against unintentional switch-on and rotating!
Due to incorrectly tightened screws parts can fly away and cause
serious injuries to persons and damage to material!
Check before commissioning the coupling the alignment and all
screw fastenings for their specified tightening torque and/or firm
seating!
Before commissioning the plant install all protective devices
against unintentional touching of free moving and/or rotating parts.
To avoid sparks coverings in stainless steel should be used!
The coverings must fulfil at least the protection type IP2X.
The covering is to be so designed that it does not deposit dust onto
the coupling parts.
The covering must not touch the coupling or influence it in its
functioning.
Pay attention during the operation of the coupling to:
Changed running noises
Occurring vibrations
Attention!
If irregularities are found during operation of the coupling, the drive must be
immediately switched off.
Detect according to the following table 5, “Operating faults and their possible causes” the
faults and remove.
The listed faults are some examples which are supposed to facilitate fault location.
For fault finding and elimination all machine components and operating states are
to be considered!
