The coupling shall be operated, mounted, maintained and repaired by authorized, trained and instructed personnel only. In the interest of further development, we reserve the right to carry out modifications serving the technical progress. BAWS 010-GBR-1 RINGFEDER ® TNS SX - 2 -...
• The coupling must only be operated in normal industrial atmospheres. Since aggressive media may attack the coupling components, screws and elastic buffer rings, they repre- sent a risk for the operational safety of the coupling. Consult RINGFEDER POWER TRANSMISSION in such cases.
The coupling parts can be stored in the delivered state in a dry place under roof at normal ambient temperatures for a time period of 6 months. Storage for a longer period requires the application of a long-term preservation. (Please consult RINGFEDER POWER TRANSMISSION in this respect.) The buffer rings must not be exposed to ozonic media, direct sun light or intensive light sources with UV light.

‘Technical Data’ are not exceeded. • The maximum permissible bore diameters must not be exceeded. • Check whether the shaft-hub connections safely transmit the occurring operating torques. • The standard tolerance of RINGFEDER TNS for finish bores is fit H7. ®...
• Axially lock the hub, for example by means of a setscrew on the back of the hub above the keyway Consult RINGFEDER POWER TRANSMISSION in case of other shaft-hub connections. • The stated maximum bore diameters are valid for keyed connec- tions according to DIN 6885/1 and must not be exceeded.
• Mount the aluminium coupling flange to the flange connection. When join- ing the parts, take care that they do not get canted at the centering seat. (Fig. 3, pos. 2). Fig. 4 BAWS 010-GBR-1 RINGFEDER ® TNS SX - 10 -...

When operating the coupling, its specific technical data have to be carefully observed (see chapter 6 ‘Technical Data’). These values must never be exceeded without the prior written approval by RINGFEDER POWER TRANSMISSION. In order to ensure trouble-free and reliable performance of the coupling, the coupling has to be designed according to the selection specifications, e.g.

10 Maintenance The flexible coupling RINGFEDER TNS SX only requires little maintenance during ® operation. The elastic buffer ring is subject to wear. The time at which the wear limit of the elastic buffer ring is reached depends on the service parameters and application conditions.
The cover must not touch the coupling and impair the proper operation of the coupling. We do not assume any responsibility or warranty for any damages resulting from the use of accessories or spare parts, which have not been originally manufactured by RINGFEDER POWER TRANSMISSION. 11 Disposal Disposal of the parts must be arranged in accordance with the regulations and laws of the country where the equipment is installed.
