Elastomeric couplings
Rexnord Viva and Omega
Omega - universal model, suitable for almost all applications
Omega HSU - especially for hot, humid or acidic conditions
Viva - for high load applications
All three, the Omega, Omega HSU and Viva, are basically designed for applications where the axles to be connected to each other are relatively close to each other. These items include fans, vacuum cleaners, screw compressors, roller conveyors and small conveyors. In areas where the distance has to be increased, for example in centrifugal pump applications, an extended model can also be chosen as an option.
The splice is integrated into the elastomer element, which allows the use of the same poles. There are a total of 30 models in total and they cover the scale up to 38400Nm.
Omega
Omega consists of four parts, is easy and quick to install thanks to the split elastomer halves and is completely maintenance-free.
For the hubs, it is possible to choose either a pre-drilled, cylindrical shaft or conical sleeve drilled model. The splitting halves allow the clutch to be installed / disassembled in the blink of an eye, eliminate the need to remove the poles, and the flexible element also allows even large axial deviations. HD element also available.
Omega HSU
Omega HSU has similar properties to Omega, but the elastomeric material differs from Omega’s polyurethane. HSU material is more resistant to hot, humid and acidic conditions.
In addition to these, the lifespan of the material is double that of Omega.
Viva
The Viva Heavy Duty model is for higher torques and possible overload situations. Compared to Omega, the Viva has stronger bolts and a reinforced, V-grooved elastomer element for impact-like loads.
Made to meet ISO and ANSI standards for switches.
Key features of the Omega, Omega HSU and Viva models:
Simple but versatile structure
Easy and fast to install and disassemble
Allows large axial deviations
Maintenance free, requires no lubrication
Suitable for almost all applications
Affordable and fast availability
