TDC/TSC/TLC
T Series Stainless Steel Discs in Pre-assembled Cartridge for Medium to High Torque Applications (Imperial)
John Crane’s Metastream® TDC/TSC/TLC Series are metallic membrane (disc) couplings that incorporate industry leading scalloped, stainless steel, flexible membranes with imperial flange hardware. They are specifically designed to meet the API 610 (ISO 13709) and ISO 14691 standards. With an excellent power to weight ratio and fit-and-forget reliability, these couplings are ideally suited for your API equipment. The TDC is a four-link design for lower power requirements, the TSC is a six-link design for medium power requirements, and the TLC is an eight-link design for larger power requirements. Torque is transmitted and misalignment accommodated through two sets of membranes, separated by a spacer element, and protected by two guard rings in a pre-assembled transmission unit. The transmission unit design means a replacement unit can be easily dropped between your equipment to ensure it is up and running as quickly as possible. The coupling provides a strong level of angular, lateral and axial misalignment, while maintaining a high level of balance integrity. Spark resistance, electrical insulation, limited end float, axial adjustment shims and torque limiting options are available.
