R+W
R+W (Bensenville, IL) has introduced a new smaller ST series safety coupling to further bridge the gap between the precision and industrial safety products. The STN is now available in a size 2 and size 5 for applications requiring lower disengagement torques with a more robust full disengagement design. Additional features include:
- A ball-detent safety element system.
- Driving and driven ends separate within milliseconds of a torque overload, reducing repairs and down times.
- A driveline free to coast to a stop after disengagement — re-engagement requires that a force be applied to the back sides of the plunger modules, either with a soft hammer or pry bar.
- Disengagement torque values adjustable in the field — multiple ranges are available depending on the module configuration.
- An output flange that can connect to a pulley or sprocket.
- Shaft to shaft connection methods are available with either bellows, disc, elastomer, or gear coupling designs.
