Nexen Friction Clutch Torque Limiter Type FMCE & OPS

Nexen Friction Clutch Torque Limiter Type FMCE & OPS

The Overload Protection System consists of a C-Faced mounted, air engaged, friction clutch and a control that electronically detects slip in the clutch when an overload occurs.

The control compares the signals from two proximity sensors and determines if the clutch is slipping. Upon recognition of an overload, the system disengages the clutch allowing the drive to free wheel. The motor disconnects from the load allowing it to run cooler without current surges and blown fuses. The clutch is re-engaged at any speed.
