EVOLASTIC® type E, EH, E2H and EFH is a highly torsionally flexible, non-slip and backlash-free shaft
and flange coupling. It dampens torsional vibrations and load shocks, reduces structure-borne noise
transmission and compensates for axial, radial and angular displacements above average.

Maximum torque of coupling TK max = rated torque of coupling TKN x 2.0.
The maximum torque TK max. signifies short-term torque peaks (e.g. when passing through the resonance). TK max may arise at the maximum
50,000 times as vibratory torque or 100,000 times as pulsating torque.
Triple torque of coupling TK max1 = rated torque of coupling TKN x ~3.0.
The triple rated torque TK max1 is the torque that may arise only rarely, but only 1,000 times at the maximum. Exceeding the triple torque of
TK max1 may cause impairment resp. damage of the coupling components.

You may only assemble, operate and maintain the coupling if you
• have carefully read through the operating/assembly instructions and understood them
• are technically qualified and specifically trained (e. g. safety, environment, logistics)
• are authorized by your company
The coupling may only be used in accordance with the technical data (see chapter 1). Unauthorized modifications
on the coupling design are not admissible. We will not assume liability for any damage that may arise. In the
interest of further development we reserve the right for technical modifications.
The EVOLASTIC® described in here corresponds to the state of the art at the time of printing of these
operating/assembly instructions.
2.5
!
Coupling selection
For a permanent and failure-free operation of the coupling it must be selected according to
the selection instructions (according to DIN 740 part 2) for the particular application (see
catalogue drive technology "EVOLASTIC®").
If the operating conditions (performance, speed, modifications on engine and machine)
change, the coupling selection must be reviewed.
Make sure that the technical data regarding torque refer to the elastomer part only. The
transmittable torque of the shaft-hub-connection must be reviewed by the customer and is
subject to his responsibility.
For drives subjected to torsional vibrations (drives with cyclic stress due to torsional vibrations) it is necessary to
perform a torsional vibration calculation to ensure a reliable selection. Typical drives subject to torsional vibrations
are e. g. drives with diesel engines, piston pumps, piston compressors etc. If requested, KTR will perform the
coupling selection and the torsional vibration calculation.
2.6
Reference to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
The couplings supplied by KTR should be considered as components, not machines or partly completed
machines according to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Consequently KTR does not have to issue a
declaration of incorporation. For details about safe assembly, start-up and safe operation refer to the present
operating/assembly instructions considering the warnings.

3
The maximum permissible bore diameters D (see chapter
1 - technical data) must not be exceeded. If these figures
are disregarded, the coupling may tear. Rotating particles
may cause danger to life.
• Hub bores machined by the customer have to observe
concentricity resp. axial runout (see illustration 18).
• Make absolutely sure to observe the figures for ØDmax..
• Carefully align the hubs when the finish bores are drilled.
• If possible, provide for a setscrew according to
DIN EN ISO 4029 with a cup point or an end plate to fasten
the hubs axially.
Illustration 18: Concentricity and axial runout
!
The customer bears the sole responsibility for all machining processes performed
subsequently on unbored or pilot bored as well as finish machined coupling components
and spare parts. KTR does not assume any warranty claims resulting from insufficient
remachining.

General advice for assembly
The EVOLASTIC® coupling may only be assembled in the order described in here.
!
In case if a dimensional drawing was prepared for the coupling, the dimensions specified
have to be primarily observed.

We recommend to inspect bores, shaft, keyway and feather key for dimensional accuracy
before assembly.
Heating the hubs lightly (approx. 80 °C) allows for easier mounting on the shaft.
STOP
!
Touching the heated hubs causes burns.
Please wear safety gloves.
We recommend to secure all screw connections against working loose additionally to
securing screws by the ratchet washer, e. g. applying Loctite screw adhesive (average
strength), while the elastomer parts must not come into contact with any type of adhesive.

The EVOLASTIC® flange couplings compensate for position deviations of the machine components to be
connected up to the data specified in table 16.
With alignment, the radial and angular displacement should be kept as small as possible, because the service life
is increased in this way provided that the operating conditions are maintained besides that.
The EVOLASTIC® flange coupling has to be aligned from the coupling hub on the shaft side to one of the
machined surfaces of the flywheel or machine.
In order to ensure a long service life of the coupling, the shaft ends have to be accurately
aligned. Please absolutely observe the displacement figures specified (see table 16). If the
figures are exceeded, the coupling will be damaged.
The more accurate the alignment of the coupling, the longer is its service life.
!
Please note:
• The displacement figures specified in table 16 are maximum figures which must not arise in parallel. If radial
and angular displacements arise simultaneously, the permissible displacement figures may only be used
proportionally (see illustration 25).
• The radial and angular displacement figures specified refer to a reference speed of 1500 rpm. The diagramme
of displacement alignment (see illustration 26) provides for a speed-dependent increase or reduction of
displacement figures by factor frpm. The displacement figures between the speeds specified have to be
interpolated accordingly.
• The figures of maximum displacements refer to the mounting process; in addition they are permissible for a
short time respectively rarely at standstill or with start-up operation as well as with exceptional loading
conditions.
• The displacement figures are general standard figures that apply up to an ambient temperature of +80 °C,
ensuring a sufficient service life of the EVOLASTIC® coupling.
• Inspect with a dial gauge, ruler or feeler gauge whether the permissible displacement figures specified in
table 16 can be observed.

Start-up
Before start-up of the coupling, inspect the alignment and the distance dimension E and adjust, if necessary, and
also inspect all screw connections for the tightening torques specified.
Finally the coupling protection against accidental contact must be fitted. It is required in accordance with
DIN EN ISO 12100 (Safety of Machinery) and directive 2014/34/EU and must protect against
• access with a little finger
• falling down of solid foreign objects.
The coupling protection is not part of KTR's scope of delivery and is the customer's responsibility. It must have
sufficient distance to the rotating components to avoid contact safely. We recommend a minimum distance of
15 mm from the outside diameter DH of the coupling.
The cover may provide for openings intended for necessary heat dissipation. These openings have to comply with
DIN EN ISO 13857.
During operation of the coupling, please pay attention to
• different operating noise
• vibrations occurring.
!

If you note any irregularities with the coupling during operation, the drive unit must be
switched off immediately. The cause of the breakdown must be specified by means of the
table „Breakdowns“ and, if possible, be eliminated according to the proposals. The potential
breakdowns specified can be hints only. To find out the cause all operating factors and
machine components must be considered.
Breakdowns, causes and elimination
The below-mentioned failures can lead to improper use of the EVOLASTIC® coupling. In addition to the
specifications given in these operating/assembly instructions make sure to avoid such failures.
The errors listed can only be clues to search for the failures. When searching for the failure the adjacent
components must generally be considered.
General failures with improper use:
• Important data for the coupling selection are not forwarded.
• The calculation of the shaft-hub-connection is not considered.
• Coupling components with damage occurred during transport are assembled.
• If the heated hub is assembled, the permissible temperature is exceeded.
• The clearance of the components to be assembled is not coordinated with one another.
• Tightening torques are fallen below/exceeded.
• Components are mixed up by mistake/assembled incorrectly.
• No original KTR components (purchased parts) are used.
• Old/already worn out elastomer parts or those stored for too long are used.
• Maintenance intervals are not observed.

Disposal
In respect of environmental protection we would ask you to dispose of the packaging resp. products on
termination of their service life in accordance with the legal regulations resp. standards that apply.
• Metal
Any metal components have to be cleaned and disposed of by scrap metal.
• Nylon materials
Nylon materials have to be collected and disposed of by a waste disposal company.
8
Maintenance and service
We recommend to perform a visual inspection on the coupling at least once a year. Pay special attention to the
condition of the elastomer part of the coupling.
• Remove loose dirt from the coupling.
• Inspect the coupling for spalling or missing components, if necessary. Inspect the elastomer part in particular
for cracks.
• Defective components must be replaced immediately resp. missing components must be replaced
immediately.
• Inspect and correct the tightening torques of all screw connections, if necessary.
• Since the flexible machine bearings of the driving and driven side settle during the course of load, inspect the
alignment of the coupling and re-align the coupling, if necessary.
Please perform visual inspection as follows:
• Inspect adhesion of the elastomer to the metal insert.
• Inspect the elastomer part for wrinkles or cracks in the
areas marked with , , ,  and  in illustration 27.
Formation of wrinkles is trouble-free, but dependent on the
application may generate cracks in the long run.
If the cracks in the areas marked achieve or exceed the
limit specified in table 17, the elastomer part must be
replaced.
!
Elastomer parts that are damaged or worn
off have to be replaced, with the
maintenance interval of the engine at the
latest.
