Hydrastart

With reduced current demand, controlled acceleration, torque and motor overload protection, this fluid coupling is suitable for soft-starting high inertia machinery.

Coupling Capacity

• Maximum power @ 1500RPM – 600kW
• Maximum speed –  3500RPM

Features & Benefits

• High inertia-controlled torque to 700kW
• Soft start – motor accelerates at reduced load
• Reduced motor size – lower cost drive package
• Overload protection – safeguards costly equipment
• Dampens vibration, reducing mechanical stress – extends machine life
• Delay fill version – extends acceleration time and further reduces start up torque
• Automatically matches load and speed on multi drives
• Energy saving through reduced current demand at start up
• Coupling, brake and V pulley design types – design flexibility
