FLENDER Standard Couplings
Torsionally Rigid All-Steel Couplings — ARPEX ARC-8/-10 Series
General information
■ Overview
Coupling can be designed for potentially explosive
environments in accordance with 94/9/EC.
■ Benefits
ARPEX couplings of the ARC-8/-10 series are outstanding for
their robust construction. They have been optimized for high
torques combined with high speeds. The patented conical
screw connection ensures reliable torque transmission by a true
positive fit and is designed to be extremely easy to fit. Couplings
can be designed for potentially explosive environments in accordance
with 94/9/EC.

■ Application
ARPEX couplings of the ARC-8 and ARC-10 series are outputand
speed-optimized coupling solutions. Power transmission is
by means of patented conical screw connections and plate
packs of the octagonal and decagonal types. Torques of between
8.5 and 1450 kNm can be transmitted at a permitted angular
misalignment of 0.2° to 0.4°. The closed flange shape and
a compact construction permit high peripheral speeds and high
speeds. On most types, the intermediate spacer can be radially
fitted without moving the connected units.
Main areas of application for the ARC-8/-10 series:
• Paper-making machines
• Printing machines
• Compressors
• Fans and blowers
• Generators
• Presses
• Conveyors
• Crane systems
• Pumps
• Mills
• Rotary furnaces
• Stirrers
