The KFBD series Constant Fluid Couplings are used on all industrial equipment driven by internal combustion engines up to 500 kW. By transmitting power through a fluid, they improve overall performance and protect both driving and driven machines.

THE BENEFITS OF CONSTANT FILL FLUID COUPLINGS

When you drive through KFBD Constant Fluid Couplings you profit from these Basic Benefits.

1 – Frees engine during heavy starts.
During heavy starts and sudden running load increases, engine lugging is prevented. The Fluid Coupling simply “slip” while it smoothly picks up the load.

2 – Provides smoothly drive
The mechanical connection is eliminated; power and torque are transmitted entirely through the fluid. The result is a smooth, sustained flow of energy minus the shocks and strains which, with mechanical drives, cut equipment life.

3 – Prevents transmission of shock loads
Fluid Couplings protect both driving and driven equipment by smoothing out shock loads and preventing them from striking solid resistance.

4 – Assures damping effects
Torsional vibrations from the engine are drastically dampened by Fluid Coupling, increasing the life of the entire driveline.

5 – Transmits full input torque
The patented Transfluid Circuit design delivers output torque always equal to the input torque. The engine can turn at its max torque-rpm, even when driven is at stall.

6 – High radial load capability
The KFBD hydraulic coupling series has also been designed for applications requiring pulley installation, particularly heavy-duty service.

1. Frees engine during heavy starts
   During heavy starts and sudden running load increases, engine lugging is prevented. The Fluid Coupling simply “slip” while it smoothly picks up the load.
2. Provides smoothly drive
   The mechanical connection is eliminated; power and torque are transmitted entirely through fluid mass and velocity. The result is a smooth, sustained flow of energy minus the shocks and strains which, with mechanical drives, cut equipment life.
3. Prevents transmission of shock loads
   Fluid Couplings protect both driving and driven equipment by smoothing out shock loads and preventing them from striking solid resistance.

The RBD drives are designed for industrial engines in stationary applications such as generators, pumps and compressor sets. Mobile applications include forklift trucks and earth-moving equipment.

RBD elastic couplings have many advantages:
ease of assembly, weight and size, small axial profile and competitive price. Drives are also supplied with standard SAE flanges for ease of installation.

These rubber couplings are also available in the SRBD version: the RBD complete with SAE or DIN 5480 finished hubs and selected SAE flanges to facilitate a complete solution at a competitive price.

Atex certification is available too.

CONFIGURATION OF RBD ELASTIC COUPLINGS

Couplings can be provided:

• with or without hub
• with spline or keyway
• with conical locking coupling
• with housing for hydrostatic drives

TECHNICAL CONSTRUCTION OF TRANSFLUID’S SHAFT COUPLINGS

The drive principle uses internal and external teeth; the only difference is that the external teeth are blocks of special rubber molded compounds.
The external ring, in aluminum, has a profile corresponding to the rubber molded compound and can be directly mounted on the output flange of the prime mover.
By this method it is also possible to absorb small angular and radial misalignments.

The spring-loaded SL brakes are designed for all applications where a fail-safe brake is required.
The brake consists of a hydraulic assembly, a plate assembly and a driven hub supplied by TRANSFLUID upon request or manufactured by the Customer.

SL BRAKES OPERATION

SL brake is a hydro-mechanical device that is Spring Loaded and hydraulically released.
A spring load exerts a compressive force between steel plates, which are mounted on the rotating shaft, and sintered plates mounted in the gear tooth ring.
When oil pressure is applied, the spring load is relieved and the plates are free to move axially on the shaft hub allowing free rotation of the shaft.
The brake is re-applied by releasing the oil pressure.

The RANGERMATIC is a multi-speed power shift transmission available in one, two or three speeds forward and one or two speeds reverse. Designed for industrial applications it provides quick and smooth reversing and easy gear selection on the go.

Consisting of a double gear train, actuated by self-contained hydraulic clutches it connects to the engine through a wide range of hydrodynamic single-stage torque converters. The torque converter is selected to optimize the driven machine’s performance.

Additionally, this multi-speed power shift transmission eliminates the mechanical connection between the engine and the driven machine allowing smooth power transfer. The hydraulic clutches are operated by a hydraulic selector, electrically actuated, with built-in a patented “soft shift” device.

The RANGERMATIC gearbox is also available for marine applications with an RBD elastic coupling on the input side instead of a torque converter.
