It is important that the storage areas are protected against light sources, ultraviolet lamps, mercury vapour and high electrical voltage sources. The moisture percentage must be maintained below 65%. In good storage conditions the characteristics of the spiders can remain unchanged for up to 6 years. 114.01 - Rev. 3 - 24 April 2019 Approved by SIT S.p.A.
The size of the spider is printed on a flat surface. ATTENTION! Install the hubs using only with the spider provided by SIT S.p.A. and of the same size. SIT S.p.A. assumes no liability for malfunctions and/or failures due to in- correct assembly or that does not comply with the instructions provided in this manual.
CAUTION! If the dimensions of shaft and key is lower than the diameter of the spider hole, one or both shafts may protrude into the spider. 114.01 - Rev. 3 - 24 April 2019 Approved by SIT S.p.A.
• 1 spider • 2 bushes • setscrews Figure 4-3 - Types of GRB The taper bush SER-SIT is a clamping device with threaded holes. ® Only half of the holes are in the bush, the other half are in the hub.
Figure 4-4 - GRS intermediate element Follow the instructions of the GRMP type making sure to check the value M (see - M Value) for both spiders. TABLE 4.1 114.01 - Rev. 3 - 24 April 2019 Approved by SIT S.p.A.
• Place the spider on one of the 2 flanges • Check the driving and driven hub to achieve the value M according to - M Value TABLE 4.1 114.01 - Rev. 3 - 24 April 2019 Approved by SIT S.p.A.
• join together the 2 flanges (CF/CFN) and the spider, then position the assembly between the flanged hubs • tighten the parts by hand GRF Screws • tighten the screws with a torque wrench as shown in the TABLE 4.3 114.01 - Rev. 3 - 24 April 2019 Approved by SIT S.p.A.
