Sealed Coupling
Introduction of Magnet CouplingA permanent magnetic coupling transfers torque from one shaft,Website:, but using magnetic force rather than a physical mechanical connection. Major parts of a coupling are follower and driver. The driver is connected to a motor, when follower reacts to the driver's motion, this results in the transmission of mechanical energy without contact.GME coupling can transmit torque from 0.15 to 1000 Nm between two shafts through magnetic forces without mechanical contact. The couplings are often used to eliminate any possible fluid leakage from the pump forever and without maintenance. They can be designed to suit different machinery without altering system.Theory of Magnet Coupling OperationPermanent magnetic coupling is to transmit torque through magnetic field that is established between the inner and outer rotor. The coupling is used where it is necessary to hermetically separated two zones in order to prevent fluid or gas leakage from an area to another, such as fluid transfer pumps applications. And the coupling also prevents transmitting vibration and axial and radial loads on the drive shaft.The eddy currents , magnetic hysteresis and hydrodynamic resistance directly affect the overall efficiency of the magnetic coupling. The magnetic coupling works by using the power generated by permanent magnets, not electro magnets, so no external power is needed. Permanent magnets are installed alternating between poles in a side by side and opposing position. The magnets support of ferromagnetic material is to help the channeling of the magnetic field correctly and thus maximizing the transmittable torque.Advantages of Magnet Coupling-Elimination of fluid leakage from the pump shaft.-Vibrations are not transmitted to the pump.-Increased safety and energy savings and no maintenance required for coupling.-Standard pumps without expensive mechanical seals are allowed to use.-No additional cost for purchasing mechanical seal spare parts and maintenance.-Couplings can be customized to suit different machinery.Features of Magnet Coupling-Long life and low maintenance costs-Very high efficiency and hermetically sealed-No contact of torque transmitting elements with permanent magnets-Hermetic separation of the driving and driven side-Torque from 0.15 to 1,000 Nm and torque Overload protection-Eliminates the need for dynamic shaft seals-Tolerate shaft misalignments-Sliding bearing optional-Frequently used in vacuum and fluid pumpsDesign Considerations of Magnet Coupling1) Operational environment of coupling2) Coupling target gap3) Annual usage demand of coupling4) Coupling rotational/linear speed(RPM)5) Required mechanical features, such as mounting hole, shroud, shaft size etc.6) Fluid viscosityMagnet Coupling Selection--Technical data of specifying correct couplingFluid/GasFluid viscosity (cSt)Fluid temperature (°C)Ambient Min.
