Replacing the Elastomer Coupling or Clamping Set (Optional Equipment)
An elastomer coupling is used when the motor of the Lexium EAC1-Series is driven directly. The elastomer coupling consists of two clamping hubs and one elastomer spider.
A clamping set is used when the motor of the Lexium EAC1-Series is driven by a belt drive. The clamping set consists of self-locking devices and belt pulleys.

UNINTENDED MOVEMENTS DUE TO DISMOUNTING |
|
Secure the moving parts of the actuator mounted in a vertical or tilted position against unexpected movements. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
You need the following tools to replace the elastomer coupling or clamping set:
oSet of hex keys
NOTE: Do not use ball head hex keys. Excessive torque may cause the ball head to break away. A broken ball head makes the removal of the screw difficult.
For suitable parts, refer to Replacement Equipment of the Lexium EAC1-Series.
