S Turn the half shells (1) such that the diagonal surfaces of the pump shaft
(2) rest on those of the coupling half shells (Refer to Fig 7-7).
S The coupling half shells must be tightened such that the gaps are the
same size (Refer to Fig. 7-7).
Extract from manufacturer’s installation and operating instructions:
S The drive shaft and output shaft should be parallel* to one another. If the
axes lean towards one another, excess load is applied to the edges of
the bearings, causing premature wear.
S The coupling may not be twisted axially. Intermediate disk should move
freely.
S The coupling should not be disassembled. Interchanging of coupling
links and disks, damaged sealing rings, polluted bearings, etc. can
cause premature malfunctioning.
S All three coupling disks must be aligned to the dimension** of the shaft
offset. If the intermediate disk is extremely off-center − meaning that the
coupling links are no longer parallel − the coupling may be destroyed
upon startup.
* = axially aligned
** = within the permitted shaft offset
