HBE SOFTEX Operating And Mounting Instructions Manual

1. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Softex® coupling is a torsionally flexible, puncture­proof three part claw coupling.
Due to the elastic gear ring, it enables to dampen im­pacts, torsional vibrations, as well as noises.
Furthermore, the gear ring has a high resistance, elastici­ty as well as good resistance to oils, greases, a variety of solvents, ozone and influences of the weather.
MATERIALS Cast Iron (GG) Spheroidal Cast Iron (GGG) Steel (St) Stainless Steel (VA) Sinter Steel (S)
Type: Clamping Hub (for splines)

3.4 USAGE
imperatively.
Operations must only be made by qualified personnel.
4. STORAGE
Due to the corrosion protection which must not be da­maged, the coupling can be stored for approx. 6 – 12 months at a dry place.
The gear rings (Polyurethane) keep their qualities in case of a corresponding storage for approx. 5 years.
ATTENTION! It must be ensured that there is no condensation in the storage rooms. A relative humidity of less than 65 % is favourable. Furhtermore, please ensure that there are no ozone generating devices, such as illuminants or high voltage devices in the storage rooms.

5.3 MOUNTING
INDICATION! Before mounting, we recommend to check the bores, shaft, hub and feather key for accuracy.
A heating of the hubs to approx. 80°C eases the fitting onto the shaft.
DANGER! In order to avoid burnings by the contact with ted hubs, please wear safety gloves.
CAUTION! Please pay attention to the danger of ignition in hazardous areas.
ATTENTION! When mounting the coupling, please ensure that the dimension E (see Technical Data) must absolutely be kept, so that the gear ring is axially movable during operation. Disregard might lead to damages.

5.4 VALUES OF MISALIGNMENT
CAUTION! During operation in hazardous areas, the ends of the shaft must imperatively be aligned. Furthermore, the durability of the coupling can be increased by an exact alignment. Please keep the recommended values of misalignment (see table).
The values of the table are valid for an operating tempe­rature T = +30°.
ATTENTION! In case of an increase of the operating temperature, the maximum permissible values of radial alignment and misalignment of angle must be multiplied by the temperature factor.

After an operating time of 3000 h, 6 months after initial operation of the coupling at the latest, the elastic gear ring must be put to test (visual check, torsion test). In case of an unessential or no wear of the gear ring during first check, the check cycles can be set to an operating time of 6000 h or 18 months at the same operating conditions.
In case of an increased wear at first check, we recommend to proceed as followed:
• Exchange of the gear ring
• Determination of cause
• Adjustment of the check cycles to the operating conditions
II 2G C IIC T4 X
After an operating time of 2000 h, 3 months after initial operation of the coupling at the latest, the elastic gear ring must be put to test (visual check, torsion test). In case of an unessential or no wear of the gear ring during first check, the check cycles can be set to an operating time of 4000 h or 12 months at the same operating conditions.
In case of an increased wear at first check, we recommend to proceed as followed:
• Exchange of the gear ring
• Determination of cause
• Adjustment of the check cycles to the operating conditions
5.4 VALUES OF MISALIGNMENT
The maximum admissible values of misalignment men­tioned in the table must only be used proportionally in case of parallel radial alignment and alignment of angle.

6.3 WEAR RATINGS
The check of the wear limit shall be made by a guide between tooth flank and coupling claw.
6.4 IDENTIFICTION
Couplings for use in hazardous areas have to be marked respectively for the permitted conditions of use.
Identification mark:
II 2G c IIB T4 X II 2G c IIC T4 X II 2D c T 110°C X I M2 c X
The explosion groups IIB and IIA as well as the tempe­rature ranges T3 – T1 are included in the identification mark II 2G c IIC T4 X.
6.5 COMMISSIONING
Bevor commissioning of the coupling, following checks and possible corrections must be made:
Check of alignment
Check of misalignment
Check of distance dimension E
Check of the tightness of the set screws in the hubs
Check of the tightness of the fixing screws when using
flange hubs
CAUTION! In hazardous areas, the set screws fixing the hubs and the fixing screws of the flange hubs must be secured against self-loosening, e.g. glue with Loctite

Afterwards, the user has to fit a coupling protection con­sisting of a fixed cover. The cover is intended to protect the coupling especially from falling items. The covers can be provided with regular openings. Following dimensions must not be exceeded.
CAUTION! When mounting the coupling to machines of cate­gory 2D, please ensure that there is no dust be­tween cover and coupling. The couplings must not operate in dust particles. When using the coupling in machines of group I, category M2, the cover must not consist of light metal (higher mechanical load).
During operation of the coupling please pay attention to:
Changed operation noises
Occurring vibrations
ATTENTION! In case of changes or irregularities during the opera­tion of the coupling, the power unit must be switched off immediately. The cause of the disturbance must be found out by the check list ”Trouble in service” and be removed, if possible.
