Type
CB
Torque capacities up to:
1,160,000 Ib·in 131.000 N·m
Eaton Airflex (Fawick) CB element assemblies are used as both clutches
and brakes in general power transmission service. The
primary feature of the CB design and construction is
the Eaton Airflex (Fawick) torsional resilient principle made possible
by the transmission of power through the side walls
of the flexible neoprene and cord actuating tube. This
flexibility also permits minor shaft misalignment.
Type
VC
Torque capacities up to:
13,877,000 Ib·in
1567.000 N·m
Eaton Airflex (Fawick) VC element assemblies are designed and built
for severe clutching and braking applications on heavy
duty equipment. They are unmatched for high starting
loads and sustained slippage where heat generated tends
to lower efficiency and shorten the operating life of
conventional clutches. Their high torque ratings permit
use of smaller diameter units which lowers contact velocity
on high speed applications. Ventilated construction
permits passage of cooling air, to rapidly dissipate
heat from the friction shoes. Torque is transmitted
from the side plates of the elements through torque
bars to the friction shoes.
Type
CM
Torque capacities up to:
3,236,000 Ib·in
365.000 N·m
Eaton Airflex (Fawick) CM element assemblies were designed primarily
for the marine industry for use on diesel driven reverse-reduction
gears. In addition to providing all of the CB element
features, their ventilated friction shoes permit clutch
slippage at low energy rates during vessel maneuvering,
as well as cycling engagements at high energy rates.
Rim registering allows triple element assemblies.
