Anti-static/flameproof couplings

JXLcouplings

JXL torsionally resilient couplings, of pin and bush design, comprise two fully machined steel flanges which are coupled via a series of drive pins and 'hytrel' flexible elements. The elements have the ability to absorb shock loads and dampen vibration.

The couplings do not produce static and do not sustain burning. Maximum shaft diameters up to 400mm with torques of 300,000Nm and speeds upto 11,000rpm can be accommodated. The JXL range of resilient couplings is able to accept angular, radial and axial misalignment, they are torsionally resilient, non-lubricating and capable of operating between temperatures of –50°C and +105°C.

The elements are flame resistant, anti-static and have NCB acceptance for use underground in coal mines number A2032.

All ATEX compliant JXL anti-static/flameproof couplings are capable of accepting a momentary overload of twice nominal torque.
