Concept
Space-saving due to direct mounting on the driven machine shaft.
Cost-saving as the use of couplings (and alignment) are eliminated and no foundations are required.
Practical due to the easy adjustment of the V-belt tension by means of the torque arm.

Technology
Helical gears : gas carburised, hardened and ground.
Housing:
- for gear unit types FA 116 to FA 324 : one-piece housing in special aluminium-alloy,
- for gear unit types FA 414 to FA 822 : grey pearlitic cast iron.
The housings are designed for optimal strength, stiffness and oil tightness.
Shafts and bearings are adequately proportioned to allow overhung loads generated by the V-belt drive.
Lubrication of gears by splash from the oil bath. The bearings are greased for life.
Sealing assured by double lip oil seals, running on plunge-ground surface.

Comprehensive range of torque ratings and output speeds
8 gear unit sizes from 450 to 7650 Nm.
Output speeds from 12,5 to 125 min-1 with 4-pole motor (50 Hz).
Wide range of V-belt drives.

Broad variety of options
Backstop.
Adjustable motor base.
Extra torque-arm.
Intermediate sleeves (for certain sizes).

Shipping conditions
Oil : gear units are shipped without oil, unless otherwise stated.
Painting : synthetic enamel, resistant to industrial atmospheres and temperatures up to 110 °C.
Protection : shaft extensions are either greased and protected with waxed waterproof paper or an anticorrosive varnish. Inner components are sprayed with storage oil.
Shipment : unpacked, unless otherwise specified.
