OEM650/OEM650X • INSTALLATION

Couplings

The motor and load should be aligned as accurately as possible. Any misalignment may degrade your system’s performance. There are three types of shaft couplings: single-flex,double-flex, and rigid. Like a hinge, a single-flex coupling accepts angular misalignment only. A double-flex coupling accepts both angular and parallel misalignments. Both single-flex and double-flex, depending on their design, may or may not accept end-play. A rigid coupling cannot compensate for any misalignment.

Single-Flex Coupling

When a single-flex coupling is used, one and only one of the shafts must be free to move in the radial direction without constraint. Do not use a double-flex coupling in this situation; it will allow too much freedom and the shaft will rotate eccentrically, which will cause large vibrations and immediate failure.

Double-Flex Coupling

Use a double-flexed coupling whenever two shafts are joined that are fixed in the radial and angular direction (angular misalignment). Do

not use a single-flex coupling with a parallel misalignment; this will bend the shafts, causing excessive bearing loads and premature failure.

Rigid Coupling

Rigid couplings are generally not recommended. They should be used only if the motor is on some form of floating mounts, which allow for alignment compensation.
