This is an engineered combination of three reliable and well tried components, designed for a Diesel engine drive whether it shall be engaged or disengaged.
The CENTA-CP comprises:
• The CENTAFLEX-R, a tough, reliable, torsional coupling with progressive characteristic and bolted to the flywheel. This coupling takes care of the torsional vibrations and misalignments whilst protecting the whole drive train against dangerous torsional vibrations.
• The CENTAMAX, a torsional coupling with linear characteristic, is optionally also available if the torsional situation should require such coupling.
• A simple robust, dry running electro magnetic pole-face friction clutch for engaging and disengaging.
• A proven CENTA-FH, flanged bearing housing with output shaft supported by tapered roller bearings. The output flange of the CENTA-CP is compatible with DIN or SAE flanges for connection to the driven equipment by universal joint or other power transmission components.
Progressive torsional characteristic with very low stiffness at low torque and increased, but moderate stiffness at high torque
Fail safe
Simple, reliable, no bonding, only rubber in compression
Special developed, temperature resistant elastomer CENTALAN with high damping, suitable for high ambient temperature of more than 100°C
For commercial heavy duty or difficult applications we recommend the special „HD“ rubber rollers, which are also oilresistant.
Well proven in service and approved by classification societies
High allowable energy loss by intensive inner and outer ventilation
Suitable for blind fitting in bell housings
Economic/easy maintainable design
• Ship propulsion with propellers
• waterjets
• stern drives
• thrusters
• pumping sets
• generators, etc.
