Fixed Speed / Constant Fill Fluid Couplings

· To satisfy starting and running characteristics of industrial machines Fluidomat offer three circuit types to give starting torque

down to 120% of nominal torque.

· Type SM and HF are basic coupling without delayfil chamber. Starting torque adjustable in the range of 170% to 270%.

· Type SMD and HFD are couplings with delayfil chamber. Starting torque adjustable in the range of 140% to 270%.

· Type SM-DX and HF-DX are couplings with extended delayfil chamber. Starting torque adjustable in the range of 120% to 270%.

· Normal operating slip - 2% to 5% depending on coupling size and starting torque value.

· Fusible plug blow off temperature 130°C as standard. Optional 160°C.

· Suitable for two consecutive starts from hot and three from cold.

Coupling types SM/SMD/SM-DX are supplied in

finished bores on the fluid coupling shaft. However
where it is not possible to specify finished bores at
the time of ordering, we can provide a seperate shaft
bush with OD> Ød4 and * narrow keyway. The
allowable maximum bore in the shaft bush is denoted
by Ød5 shown in the dimension table.

THERMAL PROTECTION
1. FUSIBLE PLUG: Incase of over heating of the coupling, the fusible plug provided on the
coupling melts and oil filled in the coupling is drained off and thus power transmission through
the coupling is stopped.

Coupling should not be run more than 60 seconds after fusible has melted and oil is drained.
Suitable guard must be provided so that the hot oil spray is restricted within the guard.

2. THERMAL TRIPPING ARRANGEMENT: MTP is a mechanical Thermal Switch. In order to avoid loss
of operating fluid due to over heating of fluid coupling the mechanical Thermal Switch MTP can
be added. However fusible plug with higher response temperature remains on the fluid coupling.

MTP consist of a plunger plug screwed on the fluid coupling body. A cam with limit switch are
mounted on stationary base frame.

On exceeding the set temperature, the plunger plug ejects out a pin which hits the cam and
operates the limit switch contact (make or break). Depending on the circuit selected the limit
switch signal can be used to switch off the drive motor or activate audio/visual alarm.

The plunger plug has to be replaced after activation.

MTP system provides valuable safety and environment protection by avoiding spillage and loss of
expensive operating fluid. Spillage of operating fluid can be expensive fire and accident hazard
due to slippery floors and injury to workmen.

MTP SYSTEM

The operating temperature of MTP is as under:

MTP SETTING FUSIBLE PLUG MELTING TEMPERATURE

< 110 °c 130 °c ± 5°c
<140 °c 160 °c ± 5 °c
 FLUIDOMAT

3. NON CONTACT ONLINE TEMPERATURE MONITOR WITH DISPLAY AND RELAY OUTPUT TYPE- IRNC:

The IRNC ope?ates on Infrared pyrometry and consists of stationery infrared non-contact pyrometer and a precision temperature
controller. The non-contact infrared sensor is placed in any direction at a distance of 300 to 1100mm from body of fluid
couplings.

The heat emitted by the body is sensor and gives a voltage output which is processed in the base unit and gives relay output on
exceeding preset temperature values. Two set points are available which can be used for alarm and trip.

IRNC systems provide valuable safety and environment protection by avoiding spillage and loss of expensive operating fluid and
fire hazardous hot oil spray.

Suggested temperature settings an IRNC system:

IRNC Setting
Fusible Plug
Set Point I Set Point II Melting Temp

< 95 °c < 105 °c 130 °c ± 5°c

< 125 °c < 135 °c 160 °c ± 5°c

Fusible plug must be used along with the system as a backup protection.

NON CONTACT ELECTRONIC TRIPPING SWITCH TYPE- ENC:

The ENC is a non contact system consisting of a transmitter screwed on the body of fluid coupling, a proximity sensor and a
processing base unit. The sensor is placed at a distance varying between 3 to 6 mm from the transmitter.

When the coupling is rotating and when the temperature of fluid couplings is less than 125°c, the transmitter emits pulse
signal to the proximity sensor every time it passes. As soon as the temperature exceeds response temperature, transmitter
stops emitting pulse signal and the base unit gives a relay output. The coupling is operational again after it has cooled
down.

ENC system provides valuable safety and environment protection by avoiding spillage and loss of expensive operating fluid

and fire hazardous hot oil spray.

Fusible plug of 160°c ± 5°c must be used along with the system as a backup protection.
