Hydrodynamic coupling
15 - 850 hp Twin Disc

Twin Disc offers a complete line of Fluid Couplings for applications in the 15 to 850 hp range. Whether used with electric motor or engine driven equipment, Twin Disc Fluid Couplings offer great performance benefits.

FREES MOTORS DURING HEAVY STARTS - During heavy starts and sudden running load increases, lugging and motor stalling and burning is prevented. The Fluid Coupling simply "slips" while it smoothly picks up the load.

PROVIDES CUSHIONED DRIVE - Mechanical connection is eliminated; horsepower and torque are transmitted entirely through mass and velocity of fluid. Smooth, sustained power flow without damaging shocks and strains.

IMPROVES DISTRIBUTION OF LOAD ON COMPOUNDED DRIVES - Power sources no longer "fight" each other. Each is free to seek its own operating speed, while the Fluid Couplings balance the load requirements at each point of operation.

NO SHOCK LOAD TRANSFER - Protects both driving and driven equipment by smoothing out shock loads and preventing them from striking solid resistance. Also, torsional vibration from engines or driven units is damped out.
