Overload Protection

Fusible plug

In overload conditions, as the slip
increases and the oil tem per a ture rises,
seals become damaged and begin to leak.
In order to avoid this damage, in critical
applications, it is advisable to install a
fusible plug instead of a solid plug.
Overload protection. For sizes 7.0 to 12.4
a 250° F fusible plug is available only as
an option. For sizes 15 to 34 a 290° F
fusible plug is standard. (A 250° F or 350°
F fusible plug is available as an option.)

Fusible pin
For sizes 15–34

It's possible to avoid loss of oil from
the unit by fitting a fusible pin. When
tem per a ture increases, reaching melting
point of fusible element, a pin is released
and touches a cam mounted on a relay
which gives an alarm or switches off the
electric motor. Like the fusible plug there
are three different fusible elements. This
solution needs only the replacing of the
fusible element or fusible pin.

Electronic overload controller
(Torque limiter)
For sizes 15–34

This device measures the speed of the
coupling, stopping the motor or giving a
signal when the preselected limit is
exceeded. With this device nothing has
to be replaced, and after having
elim i nat ed the cause of the overload,
the transmission can run normally.
