Turbostart Jolly Hydromechanical Coupling

100% efficiency at operating speed, zero slip

The TURBOSTART JOLLY Hydromechanical Coupling combines the advantages of hydraulic transmission with those of mechanical transmission. During start-up, it operates like a traditional hydrodynamic coupling, ensuring gradual acceleration and overload protection. Once operating speed is reached, a centrifugal mass device completely eliminates slip, locking the driving and driven parts together.

The Turbostart Jolly hydromechanical coupling ensures:

• Gradual start-up with overload protection
• 100% efficiency at operating speed (zero slip)
• No heat generation during operation
• Energy savings compared to traditional hydrodynamic couplings
• Adjustable start-up time by varying oil level
• No wear of mechanical parts under normal conditions

Available versions: in-line (L/S, L/MU, L/E), with brake (LE/FF drum brake, LE/DF disc brake), pulley-mounted (PF, PC, PI) and with flanges for gear couplings (CF). Special version D110 with double circuit and integrated supports.

Suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Power range: from 0.37 to 2,200 kW
