Safety single joint couplings
Corrosion proof HKS metal multiple disc couplings compensate an angular
offset up to 0.5° and an axial misalignment up to ±1 mm as well as
extending the service life of encoders in the process. They are safety
components in accordance with DIN EN ISO 13849-2 (PL e) with CE
declaration of conformity and designed in high safety factors relating
to fatigue resistance and fault exclusion. In addition, it is possible
to implement failsafe encoder attachment solutions in potentially
explosive atmospheres. As a consequence, they are ideal for extreme
operating conditions. Single joint couplings are available with
different hub lengths and bore diameters in addition to isolated
coupling versions for attachments where the risk of shaft currents is a
concern.
