The type TP fill-controlled fluid couplings are predominantly used in drives for shredding machines. The filling level of the coupling can be controlled. This allows load-free motor run-up and controlling of the torque. Thanks to the hydrodynamic principle, the fluid coupling dampens torsional vibration and torque shocks. This protects your drive and increases the productivity of your system.
The thermal capacity of the fluid coupling type TP is very high due to the active cooling circuit. A smoother start up and acceleration over a longer period of the driven machine are therefore possible.
This fluid coupling is also available with two axially arranged working circuits (type DTP). The parallel acting circuits double the power transmission.
For type TPW, the operating medium is water. This coupling is especially suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
