4H/54H-P Multi-Disc Dry Clutches | Matrix International Stationary Cylinder for Dry Operation Series 4H pressure-applied stationary cylinder multi-disc clutches are designed for dry use. Pressure supply feeds into cylinder via a flexible tube. Piston and cylinder sub-assembly mounts on shielded ball bearings. Positive disengagement achieved by use of release springs between inner plates. Standard drive rings available as optional extras. Series 54H-P clutches developed from series 4H clutches, incorporate a pilot mount. Pilot mount with the drive ring integral is supported on an extended hub by a rigid shielded double bearing assembly. Pulleys, sprockets and other drive components can fit directly to pilot mount, which has a tolerenced spigot diameter for location and tapped fixing holes. By using a suitable adaptor, a flexible coupling can fit to the pilot mount, connecting co-axial shafts which are beyond the alignment limits of series 4H clutches.Clutch requires no adjustment Shielded bearings need no lubrication in service Stationary cylinder allows simple supply connection Torques can be varied by regulating supply pressure Engagement speed controlled by varying pressure supply flow rate Large friction area gives extended plate life Individual plate separation ensures low drag torque Multi-disc design results in compact high torque clutch No axial thrusts transmitted to adjacent components All concentricities controlled within the clutch simplifying installation Pilot mount can be used to attach pulleys, sprockets and other drive components simplifying assembly
