**WESTCAR Elastic Couplings and Hydraulic Couplings**

**Introduction:**

WESTCAR provides a range of industrial components, including elastic couplings and hydraulic couplings. WESTCAR hydraulic couplings are designed for installation between an electric motor (drive component) and machinery (driven component). They are connected to the output shaft of the electric motor and the input shaft of the gearbox through couplings.

**Features:**

1. Improved motor starting capability, making it easy to initiate startup with automatic speed adjustment.

2. Offers protection against overloads for both the electric motor (drive component) and machinery (driven component), while reducing vibration.

3. Accurate transmission of torque aligned with preset values, allowing for direct starting without the need for third-party starters or variable resistor slip-ring motors.

**Advantages:**

1. A wide range of accessory options is available.

2. Interchangeable accessories based on the core equipment.

3. The sizing of the shaft pulley system is meticulously designed to meet the requirements of the drive component.

4. All hydraulic couplings driven by belts with frame numbers 40P and above are equipped with ball bearings under the pulleys to withstand higher-than-standard radial loads.

5. Horizontal installations of hydraulic couplings are paired with ROTOFLEXI flexible couplings, which allow users to move and replace flexible components directly from the coupling without disrupting the electric motor or driven equipment.

**Quality and Comparison:**

WESTCAR boasts 43 years of experience manufacturing hydraulic couplings and related transmission components, such as brakes, clutches, and couplings. The high-quality hydraulic couplings from WESTCAR offer several advantages:

1. Compact design and lightweight, with a strong power transmission capacity.

2. Equipped with externally adjustable valves for delay compensation chambers.

3. The startup torque for all couplings with delay compensation chambers does not exceed 140% of the motor's rated torque.

4. Utilizes SKF, FAG, SNR, KOYO bearings for reliable operation.

5. The pump wheel, turbine, and housing are made from special low-iron native aluminum alloy and undergo heat treatment, offering excellent mechanical performance.

6. Rich design and production experience have resolved leakage issues caused by thermal expansion. Cavity design ensures high efficiency and a high power transmission capacity.

7. All hydraulic couplings feature dual-lip seals made of fluororubber.

8. They are high-temperature-resistant, wear-resistant, and boast a long service life with dual sealing against oil and dust.

9. The hydraulic couplings include output elastic couplings.

10. Available with fuses in three specifications: 120°C, 145°C, 175°C.

11. Input and output shaft holes can be customized to user requirements.

The critical factors of quality include service life, sealing performance, vibration damping, and are more pronounced for power levels exceeding 120KW. Comparatively, WESTCAR products excel in these areas when compared to domestic products.
