3 Design and Operation 3.1 Design

Housing
The VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING is designed with a split in horizontal
direction on the shaft center level. This housing forms the oil tank at the same time.

Coupling
The coupling consists of
• primary shaft and primary wheel,
• secondary shaft and secondary wheel,
• shell (flanged on primary wheel, enclosing the secondary wheel) and
• Scoop tube housing with actuator.

Primary shaft and primary wheel are rigidly connected with each other, the same
applies to secondary wheel and secondary shaft. The primary shaft is connected
with the driving machine and the secondary shaft with the driven machine.

Primary wheel, secondary wheel and shell form the working chamber. The working
oil circulates in the working chamber.

The scoop tube, with scoop tube housing, is integrated in the VARIABLE SPEED
TURBO COUPLING housing. The secondary shaft is supported in the scoop tube
housing.

Bearings
The primary and secondary shaft of VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING are
supported by ball and roller bearings. The primary shaft is guided axially via a rela-
tive bearing (between primary and secondary shaft)

Oil pumps
A filling pump in the oil tank delivers the operating oil for the working oil and lube oil
lube circuit. The filling pump is mechanically driven by the primary shaft of VARI-
ABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING .

An electrically driven aux.lube oil pump is installed to supply lube oil to external
units during start up and shut down (Aux. lube oil pump is optional and not a stan-
dard supply. Supplied only on order).

10
3 Design and Operation 3.2 Power transmission

3.2 Power transmission

The VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING transmits power wearfree from a driv-
ing machine to a driven machine. Power is transmitted as follows:

• Between driving machine and VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING through


a connecting coupling.
• Hydrodynamically between primary wheel and secondary wheel through the
working oil,
• Between VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING and driven machine through a
connecting coupling.
Infinitely variable speed control of driven machine is possible by means of the
scoop tube control.

Mechanical energy-
kinetic energy
The power of driving machine is transmitted through the primary wheel (function:
pump) onto the working oil; the working oil is accelerated in the primary wheel, and
the mechanical energy is converted into kinetic energy. The secondary wheel
(function: turbine) absorbs the kinetic energy and converts it back into mechanical
energy. This energy is transmitted to the driven machine.

The same torque applies to primary and secondary wheel.


Slip
On power transmission the speed of secondary wheel is smaller than that of the pri-
mary wheel. This speed difference is called slip. The power loss due to the speed
difference heats up the working oil. It is necessary to cool down the oil to dissipate
this heat.
Working oil circuit
Through the working oil orifice plate the oil flows into the coupling working chamber
and, due to centrifugal force, forms a rotating oil ring in the scoop chamber. The
scoop tube position determines the thickness of oil ring in the scoop chamber and
thus also the filing in the working chamber. The scoop tube scoops up the warmed-
up working oil in the working chamber and directs it back into the oil tank from
where the filling pump supplies the working oil to the oil cooler. Then the cooled
down working oil returns into the coupling working chamber through the working oil
orifice plate.
If it is necessary to enlarge the working oil filling in the coupling, adjust the scoop
tube.

Working oil temperature


The working oil temperature depends on the power losses (slip) and the working oil
flow rate and is monitored by temperature measuring instruments.

Fusible plugs
If the oil temperature rises to 160º C (320º F) due to a failure, the solder of fusible
plugs in the coupling melts and oil is thrown into the housing of VARIABLE SPEED
TURBO COUPLING. The coupling drains the oil, thus reducing torque transmis-
sion.

The speed of driven machine may be controlled steplessly. For this purpose, the
coupling oil filling is changed during operation by means of the movable scoop
tube:

• Scoop tube inserted as far as possible in the scoop chamber of coupling (0%
position): minimum oil ring, minimum output speed.

• Scoop tube moved as far as possible out of the scoop chamber of coupling
(100% position): maximum oil ring, maximum output speed.

3 Design and Operation 3.4 Lubrication

3.4 Lubrication

3.4.1 Self-lubrication
Bearings and gears of VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING need to be lubri-
cated prior to and during operation.

Lube oil circuit


During operation the filling pump delivers oil out of the oil tank from which the lube
oil is branched off to the lube oil circuit through the lube oil orifice. Through

• Heat exchanger,
• Double oil filter and
• Lube oil orifice
the filtered and cooled oil gets to the lubrication points.

Lube oil flow rate


The lube oil flow rate required by bearings and gears is set by the lube oil orifice or
bores provided in the spray nozzles.

Only an indirect influence of lube oil flow rate is possible by changing the lube oil
pressure.
Lube oil pressure
The lube oil pressure is set at the lube oil orifice and monitored by pressure mea-
suring instruments (pressure gauge, pressure switch).
Lube oil temperature
The lube oil temperature is monitored by temperature measuring instruments.

3.4.2 Lubrication of external units (not standard supply)

The oil for lubrication of driving machine and driven machine is taken from the lube
oil circuit of VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING through the external oil orifice
and fed back into the oil tank of VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING.
Lube oil pressure,
lube oil flow rate
Lube oil pressure and lube oil flow rate are set by the external oil orifice down-
stream of the double oil filter and set by the working oil orifice plate.

The lube oil pressure is monitored by pressure measuring instruments.

Note!

i Lube oil flow rate and lube oil pressure for the supply of external units will be indi-
cated in the order confirmation.

If the supply of external oil to external units becomes necessary only subsequently,
please consult the Voith after-sales-service.

Type of guards

• Protection against accidental contact with rotating and hot parts (connecting cou-
plings, oil pipes) and other recognizable sources of danger,

• Protection against noise or sound,

• Protection against weather in case of outdoor installation (shed or housing)

Danger!

Housing, oil pipes, connecting couplings and operating oil may become very
hot - in extreme case up to 130º C. A contact may cause skin burns.

Contact with rotating connecting couplings may cause serious injuries

5.9.2 Mounting the acoustic cover

Unimpeded working
Mount the acoustic cover so that the following work can be performed without
obstruction: 1

• Read off instruments on the instrument panel and on the piping


• Read off the oil level at the oil sight glass of machine
• Clean the double oil filter
• Actuate the shutoff valves
• Install and remove the instruments
• Perform maintenance work (top up lubricant on actuator or connecting couplings
or similar)

Danger!

Heat may accumulate when using acoustic covers without ports. When com-
pressors are encapsulated gas leakages may cause intoxication, suffocation
and explosions.

Always provide acoustic covers with vent holes to dissipate the heat and to
exchange the air.

Heat dissipation and


Ventilation
• Avoid an inadmissible operating temperature on actuator, instruments, control
units, electric insulation and equipment.

• Provide separate ventilation for electric motors. The cooling air of an air-cooled
electric motor may be used for ventilation, if necessary (consider the characteris-
tic curve of motor fan and the required motor cooling).

• Regulate the air circuit in the cover to ensure heat dissipation (determine the
throughput for a cooling air temperature increase of 10ºC (50º F)).

• Lead the ventilation of gear housing and coverings (closed connecting coupling
covers) through pipes via the acoustic covers.

• Provide openings and sealrings for shaft passages, window to observe the instru-
ments, pipe and cable ducts and vents.

Fusible plugs
The fusible plugs respond at a working oil temperature of 160º C (320º F) in the
working chamber thus preventing an overheating of coupling.

Reasons for a temporary thermal rise of working oil temperature might be:

• Cooler does not function properly


• Overload of coupling

Consequences of melted fusible plugs:

- the control behavior of the coupling changes slightly


- max. output power is almost reached
- the oil temperature in the oil tank rises slightly

Oil Level

Oil level check


Start the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING at 0% scoop tube position and
vent it dependent on the cooler arrangement. Ensure that the oil level is in the mid-
dle of fill level range h1 at this operating state. Top up operating oil, if necessary.

7 Operation 7.3 Machine operation

With warm operating oil and scoop tube position at 0%, the oil level must not
exceed the max. mark L1 or must not fall below the min. oil level mark L2 at 100%
scoop tube position.

The oil level is reduced between 0% and 100% scoop tube position since the cou-
pling runner fills with oil. Even when switching of the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO
COUPLING at 0% scoop tube position, part of the operating oil remains in the cou-
pling runner.

An exact oil level check is possible only when the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO
COUPLING is running and at 0% scoop tube position.

7.3.2 Speed Control

The actuator positions the scoop tube between 0% and 100%. The scoop tube
position is determined by the speed of driven machine.

7.3.3 Double oil filter changeover

Differential pressure at Change over and clean fil- > 0.6 bar
Double oil filter ter at

The double oil filter cleans the lube oil. It has two filtering jugs of which only one is
always supplied with oil during operation. The filter is provided with a differential
pressure indicator and/or a differential pressure switch initiating an alarm, in case of
a too high difference between lube oil pressure upstream and downstream of the fil-
ter. In case of alarm, the filtering jug in operation does no longer provide enough oil
and needs to be cleaned ()section 8.2 " Cleaning the double oil filter" on page
58).

i
Note!

During transportation, storage and mounting of the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO


COUPLING and assembly of the oil piping, dirt may enter the VARIABLE SPEED
TURBO COUPLING.

Therefore, check the condition of the double oil filter during commissioning and
clean (even several times), if necessary.

51
7 Operation 7.3 Machine operation

Flood the clean


filtering Jug Flood the second filtering jug before changing the double oil filter over to it.

Note!

i If the clean filtering jug is not flooded, then the lube oil pressure drops too much on
double oil filter changeover and the unit is switched off by the monitoring instru-
ments.

7.4 Measures in case of tailspin and reverse rotation

Tailspin
Tailspin means the slow rotation of coupling by the driven machine when the unit is
switched off, e.g. in case of fan drives.

When the drive motor is switched off, the bearings of VARIABLE SPEED TURBO
COUPLING are no longer lubricated. Dependent on the speed and duration of tail-
spin, the bearings run dry and may be damaged.

Counteractions
• Switch on the main motor for approx.2 minutes or
• switch on the auxiliary lube oil pump, if available, to provide the bearings with oil.

Warning!

Reverse rotation is not allowed with the installed gear pump provided with
plain bearings.

53
7 Operation 7.5 Measures to be taken during stop periods

7.5 Measures to be taken during stop periods

When the stop periods are longer than one day:

• Switch on the auxiliary lube oil pump daily for at least five minutes

• Protect the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING against ingress of water and
humidity. Preserve bright parts accordingly.

• Start the VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING every 1 to 2 months for a short
time. Do not run it warm (risk of condensation water).

The machine inside is wetted with oil and thus protected against corrosion.

) Oil cooler stop periods: please refer to the oil cooler instruction manual in part 5
"Attaching Parts" of this documentation.(Instr.manual documented if cooler is a
part of VOITH supply)

Storage
• Storage period: max. four years from the date of manufacture
• Ambient conditions: dry rooms without direct solar radiation
Use
• Period of use: max. six years, depending on the application and surroundings

i Note!

The date of manufacture is printed on the hose lines. Example: 4 Q 95 (year of


manufacture 1995).

Inspection criteria
• Damage of skin up to the plies of fabric (chafe marks, cuts or cracks)
• Embrittlement of skin (cracks)
• Deformation pressureless and pressurized condition (separate skins, porous)
• Leaks

8.4 Checking the oil for water content and impurities

Water content

< 0.05% Oil can still be used

> 0.05% Change the oil. Separate the old oil / water mixture by centrifuging,
depositing or heating.
• > 0.2% : HD engine oils turn yellow like egg-flip
• Oil 32 or shell tellus oil 46 turn yellow

Elimination of
condensation water
If a VARIABLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING is running frequently, but always only
for a short time the warming up and cooling down process forms condensation
water which no longer evaporates .To prevent that the total oil filing needs to be
centrifuged:

• Mineral oil (water is heavier than mineral oil and deposit at bottom): Let the cou-
pling rest for 1 to 2 days. Drain the condensation water out of the oil drain valve
provided at the housing bottom.

• Synthetic fluids with a density of > 1.0 (water floats on top): remove the conden-
sation water by suction.

• Have the oil checked for impurities by the oil supplier or a competent laboratory.

Operating Fluids for Voith Turbo Couplings
VOITH TURBO with oil flow rate of the types -1-
"S,TP,DTP" and Hydrodynamic Brakes "VIR"
1. Range of Application:

This list covers the operating fluid requirements and gives a selection of the recommended fluids for
standard types with hydrodynamic circuits without gear stage. This list may not be applicable in
individual cases involving special requiremens. In such cases, the appropriate specifications will be
agreed when handling the order or be stated in the instruction manual.

For constant speed turbo couplings type "T" and Voith geard variable speed turbo couplings type "R" as
well as for other products, appropriate separate specifications must be referred to.

2. Requirements under normal loading and operating conditions:

The characteristics for turbo couplings with oil circulation or variable speed turbo couplings "S", turbo
coupling with pumped oil supply "TP" and "DTP" and hydrodynamic brakes "VIR" in accordance with
the requisition sheet No: 740080077, which is available to the oil companies, must be met. The most
important data are detailed below:

Viscosity: From 28.8 to 35.2 mm2/s (cSt) at 400 C (ISO VG 32)


Air release property: 5 min. at 500 C DIN 51381
Aging stability
No corrosion, sediments or precipitation, even on entry of water
Starting viscosity under the conditions applying at the location of use is not above 250 mm2/s (cSt), for
gear pumps with adequate input power (refer to works) upto 400 m2/s.

3. Requirements for special cases:

Viscosity restrictions or differing viscosity range at extreme operating temperatures (to be particularly
specified)

4. Selection of types available from suppliers and oil companies:

Under consideration of the requirements (section 2 and sheet No:740080077), the following types may be
used.

Hydraulic oils H-L 32 to DIN 51523 Part I

It must be monitored that there is sufficient air release property (behaviour of the pump pressures and
control stability).

Any unsatisfactory operating results lead to the omission of any associated claims under warranty.

5. Recommended types of special oils for hydrodynamic power transmission:

Operating for oil change
VOITH TURBO -1-
"T,TP,DTP,S,R,RW,EL-RL,VHB"

The following criteria apply in case of a possible oil change:

1. Neutralisation number (NZ) (DIN 51587):

NZ new ≤ 5.0 mg KOH/g oil


If NZ rises by ≥ 2.0 mg KOH/g oil above the value when new, the oil has to be changed.

2. Water content (DIN 51582): 0.05 percent in weight, still usable.

Max. 0.2 percent in weight, change the oil.

3. Air release property LAV (DIN 51381):

LAV new ≤ 5 min. (0.2% at 500 C)

The LAV rises due to oil contamination.

Change the oil in case of fluctuation of pressure and speed variation. Also deterine the LAV value, if
necessary.

4. Damage power stage by the FZG-test (DIN 51354):

The value of the damage power stage reduces with increasing aging of oil.
The extreme pressure (E.P.) additives decompose due to high temperature ( > 1300 C)
Visual check of tooth flanks. Possibly determine the still existing damage power stage.

The following applies to:

T Couplings: Items 1+ 2 EL + RL Converters: Items 1+2+3

VHB Brakes: Items 1+2 R Couplings: Items 1+2+3+4

TP-DTP Couplings: Items 1+2+3 RW-VORECON: Items: 1+2+3+4

S Couplings: Items 1+2+3

b) Hydraulic oils (e.g. SHELL

with higher water content
(>0.5 - 1.0%)

Oil-water mixtures can be separated by centrifuging, settling or heating.

Proposal for removal of condensation water:

The more frequently the coupling heats up and cools down, the more condensation water is produced. In
order not to centrifuge the total oil filling, the coupling should be out of operation for 1-2 days and then the
condensation water should be drained by means of the drain cock at the bottom. Since the water is
heavier than the mineral oil, it settles at the bottom.

In case of synthetic fluids with a density>1.0, the water floats on top and can be drawn off.

Storage and preservation

The description refers to the surface protection as far as the surfaces are uncoated
and/or not corrosion-resistant or are of aluminium casting materials.

Corrosion protection
within India
Parts of the VARIBLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING are wetted with oil (i.e. by
spraying with solvent-free flushing oil) or packed in oil paper or foil during shipment,
which means a 12 months protection against corrossion in case of dry storage
within India.

Corrosion protection
outside India
In addition, parts of the VARIBLE SPEED TURBO COUPLING are welded in foil.
Dessicant bags in the packing bind part of the humidity. Machine parts packed that
way may also be stored 12 months in a closed, dry and UV-protected room. Do not
cut open or damage the foil.

DESIGN AND OPERATION

SWITZER – MID-WEST Differential Pressure Instrument works on the difference Reed Reed
between two pressure (rP) acting on opposite side of a pressure sensor (piston). Switch Switch

Variation in pressure difference will cause the pressure sensor and linear magnet
to move in proportion to this change. A rotary pointer magnet, located in a
separate body cavity follows the linear movement of the pressure sensor magnet
and indicates the differential pressure on the gauge scale.

Switching is achieved by locating reed switches adjacent to the pressure chamber.


The reed switches are activated when the field of the linear magnet interacts at
a preset point with the reed switch armature. Switch actuation point is adjustable Piston or Rotary Magnet Piston or Rotary Magnet
Linear Magnet and Pointer Linear Magnet and Pointer
