Unscrew the locking screw (component 14). Illustration 8: KTR-SI FRA - type FT Screw the setting nut (component 13) manually to the springs (component 10) against a stop (zero point backlash-free prestress of spring). Choose any reference point of the setting nut (component 13) versus a scale mark of the lock washer (component 12, with size 2 scale marks on the pressure ring (component 11). Insert the face spanner (see table 6) into the respective bores of the setting nut (see illustration 14). The accurate torque is adjusted by turning the setting nut (component 13) clockwise. With torque setting please observe the setting diagrammes of the respective sizes (see diagramme 1 to 4 in chapter 4.7). Having set the torque the setting nut (component 13) is secured against working loose by means of the locking screw (component 14). Illustration 9: Torque setting Once the KTR-SI FRA has been set to the required torque as per these operating/mounting instructions, the figure of the ratchet torque can be considered as a reference value only. For a more accurate setting the ratchet torque should be inspected by means of a suitable measuring system. In order to achieve the optimum accuracy, the ratchet torque has to be reinspected after the initial ratchings and reset, if necessary.

The customer should provide for a separate bearing of the drive component. The non-positive connection of the drive components with the overload hub is done by screwing using usual standard screws of property class 10.9. If torsional vibrations of the overall drive have to be expected, we would recommend to lock the screw by means of a suitable screw lock. Do not give any axial pressure on the overload system. The drive element needs a corresponding bearing. 4.9 Assembly of limit switch The limit switch should be mounted to the washer of the pressure ring (component 11) (see illustration 10). The position and dimensions of the pressure ring are specified in table 7. Table 7: Position of limit switch Size 2 3 4 5 l2 45 42 46 70 Dimensions [mm] ØDA 140 184 203 279 H=stroke 2.8 3.5 3.5 4.4 Illustration 10: Mechanical limit switch Function The axial stroke of the pressure ring generated with overload may activate a mechanical limit switch or an inductive sensor. As a result a control signal is generated which can be evaluated for disengaging the drive. Assembly The sensor needs to be mounted in a solid device to ensure a smooth operation. The sensor should be protected from dirt and potential mechanical faults. Please observe protection note ISO 16016. Drawn: Verified: 2018-07-16 Pz/Rt 2018-07-19 Pz Replacing: Replaced by: --- KTR-SI FRA Operating/Assembly instructions 4 KTR-N Sheet: Edition: 46312 EN 14 of 16 1 Assembly 4.9 Assembly of limit switch Adjustment When the overload system disengages, the pressure ring makes an axial thrust (see table 7). The sensor or limit switch, respectively, has to be mounted within this shifting range. In order to adapt the mechanical limit switch and the shifting travel to the machine, the limit switch has to be adjusted accordingly. ! 5 We recommend using a limit switch! Please absolutely observe the operation of the limit switch before the machine is supplied. Please also observe the operating instructions for the sensor or limit switch, respectively. The axial stroke of the shifting ring must not be blocked by any other components. As soon as the limit switch or sensor is activated (overload: release of overload system) the drive should immediately be stopped (< 1 minute). With higher speeds respective braking devices may be necessary. Re-engagement of overload system We recommend to switch off the drive as quickly as possible once an overload occurs. The KTR-SI FRA is re-engaged by reversing the direction of rotation. In this case it is important to make sure that re-engagement is generated with a slow speed (< 50 rpm). 6 Breakdowns, causes and elimination The below-mentioned failures can result in a use of the KTR-SI FRA overload system other than intended. In addition to the specifications given in these operating and assembly instructions please 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 selection of the overload system were not forwarded. The calculation of the shaft-hub-connection was not considered. Components with damage occurred during transport are assembled. If the heated hubs are assembled, the permissible temperature is exceeded. The clearance of the components to be assembled is not coordinated with one another. Tightening torques have been fallen below/exceeded. Components are mixed up by mistake/assembled incorrectly. No original KTR components (purchased parts) are used. Maintenance intervals are not observed. Please observe protection note ISO 16016.

It is finish bored and provided with grease filling. We recommend to perform a visual inspection on the overload system at least once a year. With normal drive conditions this grease filling is sufficient during the overall service life. In case of extreme drive conditions or heavy dirt, respectively, the KTR-SI FRA has to be regularly inspected for its operation. Since the flexible machine bearings of the driving and driven side settle during the course of load, inspect the alignment and re-align the coupling/the overload system, if necessary. The components have to be inspected for damages. The screw connections have to be inspected visually. Having started up the overload system the tightening torques of the screws have to be inspected during the usual inspection intervals. ! 9 Spares inventory, customer service addresses A basic requirement to ensure the readiness for use of the coupling is a stock of the most important spare parts on site. Contact addresses of the KTR partners for spare parts and orders can be obtained from the KTR homepage at www.ktr.com. KTR does not assume any liability or warranty for the use of spare parts and accessories which are not provided by KTR and for the damages which may incur as a result.
