The size of the wedge type chocks should be 200x360 mm. The chocks should always cover
two bolts to prevent it from turning (except the chock closest to the flywheel, which has a
single hole). The material may be cast iron or steel.
The supporting surface of the seating top plate should be machined so that a bearing surface
of at least 75% is obtained. The chock should be fitted so that the distance between the bolt
holes and the edges is equal on both sides.
The cutout in the chocks for the clearance bolts should be about 2 mm larger than the bolt
diameter. Holes are to be drilled and reamed to the correct tolerance for the fitted bolts after
the coupling alignment has been checked and the chocks have been lightly knocked into
position.
Depending on the material of the bolts, the following hydraulic tightening pressures should
be used, provided that the minimum diameter is 35 mm:
●
St52-3 Tightened to 80% of yield strength, p
hyd
= 420 bar
●
42CrMo4 Tightened to 70% of yield strength, p
hyd
=710 bar
