The type TVS fluid coupling is comparable to the fluid coupling type TV; however, enhanced with an annular chamber which results in more operating fluid in the coupling. A high thermal capacity facilitates higher starting frequencies and reversing operations, safeguarding the drive against overload and dampening its torsional vibrations, thus protecting your system and increasing productivity. The type TVS fluid coupling is used primarily in crusher drives.
Additionally, Voith offers fluid couplings with water as the operating medium (type TWVS). This is critical when operations are located in potentially explosive atmospheres. Furthermore, spheroidal cast iron outer casings (type TUVS) are available and meet the required material specifications.
Benefits and uses
Load-free motor run-up
Smooth startup of the driven machine
Overload drive chain protection
Damps torsional vibration in the drive chain
Protects system components, thereby increasing service life
Robust and unsusceptible to environmental influences
Wear-free power transmission; less maintenance and repair work
Automatic load sharing in multi-motor drives protects against motor overload
Sequential startup of the motors reduces the load on the supply circuit
