    The instructions describe the coupling in horizontal mounting position with shaft­to­hub connection by cylindrical or conical bore with parallel key and a bolted flange. If a vertical or inclined arrangement or other shaft­to­hub connections, such as shrink fit or splines to DIN 5480, are to be used, Siemens must be consulted.

  • Page 10: Marking Of The Coupling Parts For Use In Potentially Explosive Zones

    Coupling part 2, couzpling part 4 or coupling part 9 bears the marking The marking is in one or two lines. If, in addition to the CE mark, the letter "U" together with the Siemens order number has been stamped on, the coupling part has been delivered by Siemens un­ or prebored.
  • Page 11: Service Conditions

    Service conditions The coupling is suited for service conditions in accordance with Directive 2014/34/EU: • Equipment group II (use above ground) of categories 2 and 3 for areas where there are explosible gas, vapour, mist, air mixtures as well as for areas where dust can form explosible atmospheres. •...

    Fitting Machining the finished bore Remove the flexible elements (12). Depreserve and clean coupling parts (2; 2/3; 4; 9). Clamp on surfaces marked with , and align. In case of coupling part 2/3, coupling part 4 and coupling part 9 great caution is necessary owing to the rotating cams.
  • Page 13: Axial Fastening

    Use threaded studs to DIN 916 with cup points as set screws (set­screw size to table 8). The set screw is intended to fill out the screw thread as much as possible and must not project beyond the hub. Alternatively use end plate; as regards recess contact Siemens. Fig. 5: Position of the set screw...

  • Page 15: Possible Misalignments

    Axial securing is effected by means of the set screw or end plate. When securing by set screw the shaft must not project or be set back from the inner sides of the hub. Fit the set screw or end plate (tightening torques of the set screw to table 8). Failure to observe these instructions may result in breakage of the coupling.
  • Page 16: Alignment

    Alignment When aligning the angular and radial misalignment should be kept as low as possible. Misalignment values specified in table 9 are maximum permissible overall values in operation, resulting from mispositioning through imprecision during alignment and misalignment through operation (e.g. deformation through load, heat expansion). Reduced misalignment in the coupling minimises expected wear on the flexible elements.
  • Page 17: Assignment Of The Tightening Torques And Wrench Widths

    Assignment of the tightening torques and wrench widths The use of an impact screwdriver is not permissible! Tightening torques apply to bolts with untreated surfaces which are not or only lightly oiled (coefficient of friction μ = 0.14). The use of lubricant paint or lubricant, which affects the coefficient of friction "μ", is not permitted.
  • Page 18: Faults, Causes And Remedy

    Faults, causes and remedy Possible cause of fault Change in alignment: – Rectify the cause of the change in alignment (e.g. loose foundation bolts). – Align the coupling. – Check the axial fastening and, if necessary, adjust. – Wear check, procedure as described in section 6. Flexible elements (12) worn: –...
  • Page 19: Frequent Faults In Maintenance

    • Coupling parts are being interchanged, i.e. their assignment to the specified shaft is incorrect. • Specified axial fastenings are not fitted. • Specified tightening torques are not being adhered to. • Bolts are inserted dry or greased. • Flange surfaces of screwed connections have not been cleaned. •...
