Designed to withstand the high torque spikes found in mills that use variable frequency drives, Airflex Torque Limiter Couplings (TLC) deliver driveline control and protection for these demanding applications. The easy-to-use Airflex TLC decreases maintenance costs and downtime with electronic slip detection and automatic resets.
Familiar technology - Based on VC clutch design
Reduce downtime - Simpler reset than mechanical couplings
Danfoss TLC benefits
Continuously monitors torque to prevent overload of the motor and damage to costly equipment
Resets and restarts instantaneously, ensuring maximum uptime for your operation
Increased torque capacity provides downsizing opportunities, potentially reducing your costs
Simple design extends wear part life further and delivers long-term durability
Low-maintenance solution that is easy to install and operate
Advanced Slip Detection Control
Slip Detection Control technology automatically disengages the TLC if slippage is detected between the motor and the pinion. It also detects fast starts and over-programmed starts, reducing equipment downtime and preventing driveline damage.
How it works
Engages at 0 RPM and pressurizes to achieve required torque based on a preset air pressure
Slip Detection Control monitors the drive system load and immediately disengages TLC when it detects a torque overload
Reset the grinding mill instantly by reapplying the required air pressure—no downtime required
Torque Limiter Coupling
Same basic features and operation as VC elements
More economical than mechanical and hydraulic style torque limiters
Five sizes available
