IP Magnetic Coupling
 | It has been suggested that this article be merged into Magnetic coupling. (Discuss) Proposed since April 2015. |
IP Magnetic Coupling
The "IP" in IP Magnetic Coupling stands for Incapsulated Powder and the fact that the magnet is hermetically sealed, resulting in a high IP rating.[1]
It is a unique corrosion-resistant coupling based on an innovative and patented new process. The magnet is fully enclosed in stainless steel such that it is fully protected against all external factors. [2]
Uniqueness of the IP Magnetic Coupling
The uniqueness of the IP Magnetic Coupling is the magnet solution inside both the inner and the outer drive. The solution eliminates many construction and recycle challenges, making it possible to move the process to automated production lines, which makes it valuable for high-volume production.
Advantages
Just as any other magnetic coupling, it has the following advantages: fully medium separation can be acquired by placing a physical barrier between the two. No oil is needed in order to function, there is no contact between the two shafts which also keeps the noise level very low, no wear allows it to function for a long time and it requires little to no maintenance, the solution also allows for misalignment of the shaft, and acts as a torque limiter protecting the mechanical parts.[3]
Above all of these, the IP magnetic coupling can provide higher torque at the same volume as a normal magnetic coupling, there is no epoxy used in the production making it environmentally friendly and fully recyclable.
Fields of application
The IP magnetic coupling can be used as a regular coupling in the following fields of application:
- Pump Industry
- Mixers/Agitators
- Offshore Turbine Industry
It can also be used as a torque limiter in:
- Cutters and grinders
- Bottling/Packaging/Paper converting
