Torque Limiter
| 1 | Slips at startup |
|---|
| Cause 1 | Insufficient set torque | Solution | Readjust the slip torque to suit the machine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cause 2 | Oil and water adhere to the friction surface | Solution | Cleaning |
| Cause 3 | Friction plate life | Solution | Friction plate replacement |
| Cause 4 | overload | Solution | Eliminate overload |
| 2 | No slip when overloaded |
|---|
| Cause 1 | High slip torque | Solution | Adjust the slip torque to suit the machine |
