Gasoline engines, pumps, generators and other machines operating in rugged environments require long-lasting components to ensure successful performance. Clutches designed with durable materials can prevent breakdowns, which would otherwise lead to expensive maintenance and downtime. One example of a ruggedized clutch — the Carlyle Johnson's EPC multiple disc electric pulley clutch — consists of a standard electromagnetic multiple disc design and utilizes oil shear to enhance service life.
Oil Shear Design Improves Operating Temperature
As the pulley clutch engages, lubricating oil squeezes out from between the friction discs and shears across the friction surface, transmitting the engagement torque. This process significantly reduces heat along the friction disc surface. Increasing heat dissipation, the heated oil is also forced to the outside of the housing.
Hassle-free Mounting
You can mount an EPC clutch in a matter of minutes. Ideal for devices where the clutch is routinely disengaged from the main power source, the EPC excels in applications like gasoline engines, pumps, generators, conveyors and gearboxes.
Excellent Protection
The EPC clutch thrives in harsh applications and provides a long lifespan due to its unique oil shear multiple disc design. Its fully sealed housing allows the clutch to operate in a bath of Type A automatic transmission fluid, increasing protection from damage due to environmental conditions, as well as washdowns.
Standard Features
Torque ranges: 15-300 pound-feet.
Standard operating voltages: 6-240 VDC.
Self-adjusting multiple disc units.
Fully enclosed, durable housing.
More than ten times greater life expectancy than single-plate, dry clutches.
Customize Your Clutch
If one of our standard models doesn’t meet your exact specifications, Ringfeder will modify their EPC pulley clutches.

More about UNIM:
UNIM has over ten-year experience in making conventional bearings, precise bearings and non-standard bearings. UNIM also produces and exports bearing parts (roller, ball, seal, ring and so on), chain, sprocket, pulley and such other machinery parts.Following strict quality control system, all the members of UNIM are strictly implementing ISO 9001, 14001, and relevant industry quality standard system and environment protection.
2022 New Week UNIM product Recommendation:
Nowadays, industrial gearbox is becoming smaller in size but higher in power, which brings a great challenge to the bearings used inside. The bearings need to be reliable, long-life, compact but high load capacity, low friction and noise and easy to maintenance. For all these requirements, WD provides reliable products for different industrial gearboxes, e.g. deep groove ball bearings, cylindrical roller bearing, tapered roller bearing, spherical roller bearings, etc.
