ROTEX® GS is a plug-in shaft coupling for measuring technology and automatic control engineering. It
is able to compensate for shaft misalignment, for example caused by manufacturing inaccuracies,
thermal expansion, etc.
With the designing of our ROTEX® GS coupling, the engineering standards and regulations, in
particular DIN EN 12100, part 2 as well as DIN EN ISO 13849, part 1 and 2 „Safety of machines” have
been taken into account.

1) For coupling selection please see catalogue drive technology "ROTEX GS".
Consider transmittable torques of the clamping connection (see table 5 to 7)
2) Ø DH + 2 mm with high speeds for expansion of spider
If used in hazardous locations the setscrews to fasten the hubs as well as all screw connections must
3)
be secured against working loose additionally, e. g. conglutinating with Loctite (average strength).

Subject to the increased safety with the assembly (several screws are tightened) and the
high friction torque of the clamping ring hub, this type is permissible for applications
according to DIN EN ISO 13849, part 2.

Advice
®
The ROTEX GS coupling was developed for a backlash-free power
transmission and easy plug-in assembly. This backlash-free power
transmission is realized in the area of prestress (see illustration 11).
The big concave surface contact results in a lower surface pressure on
the involute tooth. Consequently the tooth can be overloaded many
times over with no wear/deformation.
The safe operation in the range of prestress is ensured, because the
coupling operates according to the principle of positive-locking rubber
spring prestress with high damping features. The star-shape coupling
Illustration 11: Prestress of spider
spider is inserted in the cams of the hubs which are machined
specifically accurately with a small amount of prestress, resulting in the
necessary backlash-free power transmission.
The flexible teeth compensating for misalignment are radially supported in the internal diameter by means of a
web. An external deformation is limited by the concave shape of the cams, ensuring a smooth operation even
with bigger masses (e. g. machine tables, articulated arms, etc.).
The flexible spiders for the GS series are available in five different kinds of Shore hardness, injected in different
colours, either as a torsionally soft or hard material.
2.1 General advice
Please read through these operating/assembly instructions carefully before you start up the coupling.
Please pay special attention to the safety instructions!
®
The ROTEX GS coupling is suitable and approved for the use in hazardous areas. When using
the coupling in hazardous locations, please observe the special advice and instructions regarding
safety in enclosure A.
®
In order to ensure the operating principle of ROTEX GS and avoid early wear of the coupling, a corresponding
operating factor „SB“ has to be considered for the selection, each depending on the application (see catalogue).
Temperatures and shocks are provided with the corresponding factors, too (see catalogue).
The operating/assembly instructions are part of your product. Please store them carefully and close to the
coupling. The copyright for these operating/assembly instructions remains with KTR.

Advice
2.3 General hazard warnings
STOP
With assembly, operation and maintenance of the coupling it has to be made sure that the
entire drive train is secured against accidental switch-on. You may be seriously hurt by
rotating parts. Please make absolutely sure to read through and observe the following
safety indications.
 All operations on and with the coupling have to be performed taking into account "safety first".
 Please make sure to switch off the power pack before you perform your work on the coupling.
 Secure the power pack against accidental switch-on, e. g. by providing warning signs at the place of switch-on
or removing the fuse for current supply.
 Do not reach into the operation area of the coupling as long as it is in operation.
 Please secure the coupling against accidental contact. Please provide for the necessary protection devices
and covers.
2.4 Intended use
You may only assemble, operate and maintain the coupling if you
 have carefully read through the operating/assembly instructions and understood them
 had technical training
 are authorized by your company
The coupling may only be used in accordance with the technical data (see chapter 1). Unauthorized modifications
on the coupling design are not admissible. We will not assume liability for any damage that may arise. In the
interest of further development we reserve the right for technical modifications.
®
The ROTEX GS described in here corresponds to the technical status at the time of printing of these
operating/assembly instructions.
2.5 Coupling selection
!
For a long-lasting and failure-free operation of the coupling it must be selected according to
the selection instructions (following DIN 740, part 2 with specific factors) for the particular
®
application (see catalogue drive technology "ROTEX GS").
If the operating conditions (performance, speed, modifications on engine and machine)
change, the coupling selection must be reviewed.
Please make sure that the technical data regarding torque refer to the spider only. The
transmittable torque of the shaft-hub-connection must be reviewed by the customer and is
subject to his responsibility.
For drives subject to torsional vibrations (drives with cyclic stress due to torsional vibrations) it is necessary to
perform a torsional vibration calculation to ensure a reliable selection. Typical drives subject to torsional vibrations
are e. g. drives with diesel engines, piston pumps, piston compressors etc. If requested, KTR will perform the
coupling selection and the torsional vibration calculation.
2.6 Reference to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
The couplings supplied by KTR should be considered as components, not machines or partly completed
machines according to EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Consequently KTR does not have to issue a
declaration of incorporation. For details about safe assembly, start-up and safe operation please refer to the
present operating/assembly instructions considering the warnings.

Assembly
4.3 Advice for assembly
®
Subject to its design ROTEX GS allows to axially plug in the coupling having assembled the hubs onto the shaft
journal. Consequently there is no need for subsequent screwing and the respective mounting holes in the
housing.
The pegs on the spider arranged reciprocally prevent a contact between the spider and the hubs over the full
surface. Observing the distance dimension E, the ability for displacement of the coupling is ensured in this way.
All teeth are chamfered on the face which allows a blind assembly. When the coupling hubs are combined with
®
the ROTEX GS spider an axial assembly force is generated resulting from the flexible prestress of the starshape elastomer. This assembly force varies depending on the coupling size, the spider hardness and the
machining tolerances.
The axial assembly force is compensated for after assembly of the hubs and consequently does not mean any
risk of axial load being applied to adjacent bearings.
The mounting force can be reduced by lightly greasing or lubricating the elastomer or the hubs. For this purpose
please only use oils and greases on a mineral oil basis without any additives. Lubricants on a silicone basis (e. g.
Optimol Optisit WX) or vaseline have proven their worth, too.
4.4 Advice for finish bore
STOP
The maximum permissible bore diameters d (see table 1 to
11 in chapter 1 - technical data) must not be exceeded. If
these figures are disregarded, the coupling may tear.
Rotating particles may cause danger to life.
 Hub bores machined by the customer have to observe
concentricity or axial runout, respectively (see illustration
21).
 Please make absolutely sure to observe the figures for
Ø dmax.
 Carefully align the hubs when the finish bores are drilled.
 Please provide for a setscrew according to
DIN EN ISO 4029 with a cup point or an end plate to fasten
the hubs axially.
Illustration 21: Concentricity
and axial runout
The customer bears the sole responsibility for all machining processes performed
subsequently on unbored or pilot bored as well as finish machined coupling components
and spare parts. KTR does not assume any warranty claims resulting from insufficient
remachining.
!
KTR supplies unbored or pilot bored coupling components and spare parts only upon
explicit request of the customer. These parts are additionally labelled with the symbol
.

Assembly
4.5 Assembly of hubs (types 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2)

We recommend to inspect bores, shaft, keyway and feather key for dimensional accuracy
before assembly.
Before starting with the assembly preserving agents have to be removed from the bores. Moreover, the shaft
ends have to be cleaned carefully, too.
Please note the manufacturer’s instructions regarding the use of detergents.
!
Heating the hubs lightly (approx. 80 °C) allows for an easier mounting on the shaft.
Please pay attention to the ignition risk in hazardous locations!
STOP
!
Touching the heated hubs causes burns.
Please wear safety gloves.
With the assembly please make sure that the distance dimension E (see table 1 to 11) is
observed to allow for axial clearance of the spider when in operation.
Disregarding this advice may cause damage to the coupling.
 Mount the hubs on the shaft of driving and driven side.
 Insert the spider into the cam section of the hub on the driving or driven side.
 Shift the power packs in axial direction until the distance dimension E is achieved.
 If the power packs are already firmly assembled, shifting the hubs axially on the shafts allows for adjusting the
distance dimension E.
 Fasten the hubs by tightening the setscrews DIN EN ISO 4029 with a cup point (tightening torques see
table 12).

If the shaft diameters with inserted feather key are smaller than dimension dH (see table 1 to
11) of the spider, one or two shaft ends may protude into the spider.
If used in hazardous locations the setscrews to fasten the hubs as well as all screw
connections must be secured against working loose additionally, e. g. conglutinating with
Loctite (average strength).
Hub type 1.1 (without feather keyway) may be used in category 3 only.

4.6 Assembly of clamping hubs (types 2.0, 2.1, 2.5, 2.6, 2.8, 2.9, 7.5, 7.6, 7.8 and 7.9)
®
The power transmission of ROTEX GS clamping hubs (types 2.0, 2.5, 2.8, 7.5 and 7.8) is frictionally engaged.
With types 2.1, 2.6, 2.9, 7.6 and 7.9 a feather key additionally provides for positive locking power transmission.
 Clean and degrease the hub bore and the shaft.
 Lightly detach the clamping screws.
 Slip the hub onto the shaft. Please observe the dimension l1/l2.
 Tighten the clamping screws at the tightening torques mentioned in
table 3.
With types 2.8, 7.5, 7.8 or 2.9, 7.6, 7.9 (with keyway) the screws have
to be tightened alternately in equal steps at the tightening torques
specified in table 3.
If used in hazardous locations the clamping screws to
fasten the hubs as well as all screw connections must be
secured against working loose additionally, e. g.
conglutinating with Loctite (average strength).
Illustration 22: Assembly of clamping hub
Please note: types 2.8, 2.9, 7.5, 7.6, 7,8 or
7.9 have 2 clamping screws
!
The frictionally engaged transmittable torques of the clamping hubs depend on the bore
diameter.
Hub types 2.0, 2.5, 2.8, 7.5 and 7.8 (without feather keyway) may only be used in category 3
and are not permissible for applications according to DIN EN ISO 13849, part 2.
!
If the clamping screws are not tightened at the correct tightening torque, there is the risk of
a) a fracture of the hub and plastic deformation with a too high tightening torque T A
b) type 6.0: a fracture of the hubs/cams and plastic deformation with a too high tightening
torque TA
c) early slippling, untightening of the screws with a too small tightening torque T A
4.7 Assembly/disassembly of clamping ring hubs (types 6.0, 6.0 steel, 6.0 light and 6.5)
®
The power transmission of ROTEX GS clamping hubs is frictionally engaged. The necessary surface pressure is
transmitted via the clamping ring with internal taper to the taper hub and consequently to the shaft. The torques
mentioned in tables 5 to 7 include a fit pair H7/k6 from Ø 55 G7/m6. With a higher fit clearance the torques
mentioned in tables 5 to 7 are reduced.
The stiffness and dimensions of the shafts (here specifically hollow shafts) have to be selected in a way that
sufficient safety against plastic deformation is ensured. This may roughly be reviewed as per the following
criterion.

 Clean the hub bore and shaft and review for dimensional accuracy,
afterwards lubricate with a thin-fluid oil (e. g. Castrol 4 in 1, Klüber
Quietsch-Ex or WD 40).
!
Oils and greases containing molybdenum disulfide or other
high-pressure additives as well as internal lubricants must
not be used.
 Lightly untighten the clamping screw and pull the clamping ring from the
hub only marginally to make sure that the clamping ring is loosened.
 Slip the clamping ring hub onto the shaft. The dimension l3 should at least
be observed (see table 4).
 Tighten the clamping screws evenly crosswise step by step to the
tightening torque specified in table 6 or 7. Repeat this process until all
clamping screws have reached the tightening torque.

 Assembly of the clamping ring hub 6.0 light:
Tighten the clamping screws evenly stepwise and crosswise at 1/3 or 2/3 tightening torque T A, respectively
(see table 5) until the ring gets in contact. Afterwards tighten the screws at the tightening torque mentioned in
table 5 one after another.

Selection of clamping ring hubs
With the use in hazardous locations the clamping ring hubs have to be selected such that
there is a minimum safety factor of s = 2 covering the peak torque of the machine including
all operating parameters and the friction torque of the clamping ring hub.

Assembly
Disassembly:
Unscrew the clamping screws evenly one after another. During every
revolution every screw may only be unscrewed by half a turn. Unscrew all
clamping screws by 3 - 4 pitches.
Remove the screws located next to the pull-off threads and screw them into
the respective pull-off threads until they are in contact.
The clamping ring is released if the screws in the pull-off threads are
tightened evenly stepwise and crosswise.
!
If these hints are not observed, the operation of the
coupling may be affected.
Illustration 24: Disassembly of clamping
ring hub with clamping ring
If the assembly is repeated the bore of the hub and shaft have to be cleaned and afterwards lubricated with a thinfluid oil (e. g. Castrol 4 in 1, Klüber Quietsch-Ex or WD 40). The same applies for the taper surfaces of clamping
ring hub and clamping ring.

4.8 Assembly/disassembly of expansion hubs (type 9.0)
 Untighten clamping screw and clamping bolt.
 Clean and degrease the internal diameter of the hollow shaft and the
outside contact surface of the expansion hub (see illustration 25).
 Insert the expansion hub along with clamping bolt and clamping screw in
the hollow shaft. Tighten the clamping screw at the tightening torque
mentioned in table 11.

The tightening torques apply for the figures mentioned in
table 11 only.

and hollow shaft
The frictionally engaged transmittable torques of the expansion hub depend on the internal
and external diameter of the hollow shaft as well as the material.
b) early slippling, untightening of the screws with a too small tightening torque T A
Disassembly:
Unscrew the clamping screw only lightly so that the clamping bolt loosens. If the clamping bolt did not loosen,
apply a light beat on the screw head. Afterwards remove the clamping screw fully.
4.9 Displacements - alignment of the couplings
The displacement figures specified in tables 13 and 14 provide for sufficient safety to compensate for external
influences like, for example, thermal expansion or foundation settling.
!
In order to ensure a long service life of the coupling and avoid dangers with the use in
hazardous locations, the shaft ends must be accurately aligned.
Please absolutely observe the displacement figures specified (see tables 13 and 14). If the
figures are exceeded, the coupling will be damaged.
The more accurate the alignment of the coupling, the longer is its service life.
If used in hazardous areas for the explosion group IIC (marking II 2GD c IIC T X), only half of
the displacement figures (see tables 13 and 14) are permissible.
Please note:
 The displacement figures specified in tables 13 and 14 are maximum figures which must not arise in parallel. If
radial and angular displacements arise at the same time, the permissible displacement values may only be
used proportionally (see illustration 27).
 Please inspect with a dial gauge, ruler or feeler whether the permissible displacement figures of tables 13 and
14 can be observed.

The permissible displacement figures of the flexible ROTEX GS couplings mentioned are general standard values taking into
account the load of the coupling up to the rated torque TKN of the coupling and an ambient temperature of + 30 °C.

Start-up
Before start-up of the coupling, please inspect the tightening of the setscrews in the hubs, the alignment and the
distance dimension E and adjust, if necessary, and also inspect all screw connections for the tightening torques
specified, dependent on the type of coupling.
If used in hazardous locations the setscrews to fasten the hubs as well as all screw connections
must be secured against working loose additionally, e. g. conglutinating with Loctite (average
strength).
Finally the coupling protection against accidental contact must be fitted.
The cover must be electrically conductive and included in the equipotential bonding. Bellhousings (magnesium
share below 7.5 %) made of aluminium and damping rings (NBR) can be used as connecting element between
pump and electric motor. The cover may only be taken off with standstill of the unit.
During operation of the coupling, please pay attention to
 different operating noise
 vibrations occurring.
If the couplings are used in locations subject to dust explosion and in mining the user must make sure that there
is no accumulation of dust in a dangerous volume between the cover and the coupling. The coupling must not
operate in an accumulation of dust.
For covers with unlocked openings on the top face no light metals must be used if the couplings are used as
equipment of equipment group ll (if possible, from stainless steel).
If the couplings are used in mining (equipment group l M2), the cover must not be made of light metal. In addition,
it must be resistant to higher mechanical loads than if it is used as equipment of equipment group ll.
The minimum distance „Sr“ between the protective device and the rotating parts must at least correspond to the
figures specified below.

If you note any irregularities with the coupling during operation, the drive unit must be
switched off immediately. The cause of the breakdown must be specified by means of the
table „Breakdowns“ and, if possible, be eliminated according to the proposals. The potential
breakdowns mentioned can be hints only. To find out the cause all operating factors and
machine components must be considered.
Coating of coupling:
If coated (priming, paintings, etc.) couplings are used in hazardous locations, the requirements on
conductibility and coating thickness must be considered. In case of paintings up to 200 µm
electrostatic load does not have to be expected. Multiple coatings exceeding 200 µm are prohibited
for explosion group llC.

The below-mentioned failures can lead to a use of the ROTEX GS coupling other than intended. In addition to
the specifications given in these operating and assembly instructions please make sure to avoid such failures.
The errors listed can only be clues to search for the failures. When searching for the failure the adjacent
components must generally be considered.
If used other than intended the coupling can become a source of ignition.
EU directive 2014/34/EU requires special care by the manufacturer and the user.
General failures with use other than intended:
 Important data for the coupling selection were not forwarded.
 The calculation of the shaft-hub-connection was not considered.
 Coupling components with damage occurred during transport are assembled.
 If the heated hubs are assembled, the permissible temperature is exceeded.
 The clearance of the components to be assembled is not coordinated with one another.
 Tightening torques have been fallen below/exceeded.
 Components are mixed up by mistake/assembled incorrectly.
 A wrong or no spider is inserted in the coupling.
 No original KTR components (purchased parts) are used.
 Old/already worn out spiders or spiders stored for too long are used.

: The coupling used/the coupling protection used is not suitable for the operation in hazardous locations
and does not correspond to EU directive 2014/34/EU, respectively.
 Maintenance intervals are not observed.

Maintenance and service
®
ROTEX GS is a low-maintenance coupling. We recommend to perform a visual inspection on the coupling at
least once a year. Please pay special attention to the condition of the spider of the coupling.
 Since the flexible machine bearings of the driving and driven side settle during the course of load, please
inspect the alignment of the coupling and re-align the coupling, if necessary.
 The coupling parts have to be inspected for damages.
 The screw connections have to be inspected visually.
Having started up the coupling the tightening torques of the screws have to be inspected
during the usual inspection intervals.
!
With the use in hazardous locations please observe chapter 10.2 Inspection intervals for
couplings in
- hazardous locations.

Explanation:
The maximum surface temperatures each result from the maximum permissible ambient or operating temperature T a plus the maximum
temperature increase T of 20 K which has to be taken into account.
1) The ambient or operating temperature Ta is limited to + 90 °C due to the permissible permanent operating temperature of the elastomers
used.
2) The maximum surface temperature of + 110 °C applies for the use in locations which are potentially subject to dust explosion, too.
2. Mining
Equipment group I of category M2 (coupling is not approved for equipment group M1).
Permissible ambient temperature - 30 °C to + 90 °C.
In mining for equipment group I of category M2 coupling hubs and DKM spacers made of steel only are
permissible.

Inspection intervals
For couplings which are classified in category 3G or 3D the operating and assembly
instructions that are usual for standard operation apply. During the standard operation
which has to be subject to the ignition risk analysis the couplings are free from any ignition
source. Merely the temperature increase produced by self-heating and depending on the
coupling type has to be considered:
®
for ROTEX GS: T = 20 K
An inspection of the torsional backlash and a visual inspection of the flexible spider must
be performed after 3,000 operating hours for the first time, at the latest after 6 months after
start-up of the coupling.
If you note insignificant or no wear on the spider upon this initial inspection, further
inspections can each be performed after 6,000 operating hours or at the latest after 18
months, provided that the operating parameters remain the same.
If you note significant wear during the initial inspection so that it would be recommendable
to replace the spider, please find out the cause according to the table „Breakdowns“, if
possible.
The maintenance intervals must be adjusted to the modified operating parameters without
fail.
An inspection of the torsional backlash and a visual inspection of the flexible spider must
be performed after 2,000 operating hours for the first time, at the latest after 3 months after
start-up of the coupling.
If you note insignificant or no wear on the spider upon this initial inspection, further
inspections can each be performed after 4,000 operating hours or at the latest after 12
months, provided that the operating parameters remain the same.
If you note significant wear during the initial inspection so that it would be recommendable
to replace the spider, please find out the cause according to the table „Breakdowns“, if
possible.
The maintenance intervals must be adjusted to the modified operating parameters without
fail.
Hub type 1.1, 2.0, 2.5, 2.8, 7.5 and 7.8 (without feather keyway) may be used in category 3
only.

ROTEX GS backlash-free shaft couplings
Illustration 28: ROTEX® GS backlash-free shaft coupling
Illustration 29: ROTEX® GS spider
If the drive permits, the backlash between the cams of the coupling and the flexible spider has to be measured by
means of a feeler gauge.
When reaching the wear limit maximum friction, the spider must be replaced immediately, irrespective of the
inspection intervals.

10.3 Standard values of wear
In case of a backlash > X mm, the flexible spider must be replaced.
Reaching the limits for replacing depends on the operating conditions and the existing operating parameters.
In order to ensure a long service life of the coupling and avoid dangers with the use in
hazardous locations, the shaft ends must be accurately aligned.
Please absolutely observe the displacement figures specified (see tables 13 and 14). If the
figures are exceeded, the coupling will be damaged.


Illustration 31: Wear of spider
For backlash-free applications no wear is permitted, since otherwise the operating principle
of the coupling (backlash-free condition) is no longer ensured. If a backlash-free operation
is not required, the following figures apply:
