Legal notes
Warning note concept
This manual comprises notes which must be observed for your personal safety and for preventing material
damage. Notes for your personal safety are marked with a warning triangle or an "Ex" symbol (when applying
Directive 2014/34/EU), those only for preventing material damage with a "STOP" sign.
WARNING! Imminent explosion!
The notes indicated by this symbol are given to prevent explosion damage.
Disregarding these notes may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING! Imminent personal injury!
The notes indicated by this symbol are given to prevent personal injury.
Disregarding these notes may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING! Imminent damage to the product!
The notes indicated by this symbol are given to prevent damage to the product.
Disregarding these notes may result in material damage.
NOTE!
The notes indicated by this symbol must be treated as general operating information.
Disregarding these notes may result in undesirable results or conditions.
WARNING! Hot surfaces!
The notes indicated by this symbol are made to prevent risk of burns due to hot surfaces
and must always be observed.
Disregarding these notes may result in light or serious injury.
Where there is more than one hazard, the warning note for whichever hazard is the most serious is always used.
If in a warning note a warning triangle is used to warn of possible personal injury, a warning of material damage
may be added to the same warning note.
Qualified personnel
The product/system to which this documentation relates may be handled only by persons qualified for the work
concerned and in accordance with the documentation relating to the work concerned, particularly the safety and
warning notes contained in those documents.
Qualified personnel must be specially trained and have the experience necessary to recognise risks associated
with these products and to avoid possible hazards.
Proper use of Flender products
Observe also the following:
Flender products must be used only for the applications provided for in the catalogue and the relevant technical
documentation. If products and components of other makes are used, they must be recommended or approved
by Flender. The faultfree, safe operation of the products calls for proper transport, proper storage, erection,
assembly, installation, startup, operation and maintenance. The permissible ambient conditions must be
adhered to. Notes in the relevant documentations must be observed.
Trade marks
All designations to which the registered industrial property mark ® is appended are registered trademarks of
Flender GmbH. Other designations used in this document may be trademarks the use of which by third parties
for their own purposes may infringe holders’ rights.
Exclusion of liability
We have checked the content of the document for compliance with the hard and software described.
Nevertheless, variances may occur, and so we can offer no warranty for complete agreement. The information

Operating instructions 10/2017
2. General notes
2.1 Introduction
These instructions are an integral part of the delivery of the coupling and must be kept in its vicinity for
reference at all times.
All persons involved in the installation, operation, maintenance and repair of the
coupling must have read and understood these operating instructions and must
comply with them at all times. Flender accepts no responsibility for damage or
disruption caused by disregard of these instructions.
The "FLENDER coupling" described in these instructions has been developed for stationary use in
general engineering applications.
The coupling is designed only for the application described in section 1, "Technical data". Other operating
conditions must be contractually agreed.
The coupling must be used and operated strictly in accordance with the conditions laid down in the contract
governing performance and supply agreed by Flender and the customer.
The coupling described in these instructions reflects the state of technical development at the time these
instructions went to print.
In the interest of technical progress we reserve the right to make changes to the individual assemblies and
accessories which we regard as necessary to preserve their essential characteristics and improve their
efficiency and safety.
2.2 Copyright
The copyright to these operating instructions is held by Flender.
These instructions must not be wholly or partly reproduced for competitive purposes, used in any
unauthorised way or made available to third parties without our agreement.
Technical enquiries should be addressed to the following works or to one of our customer services:

3. Safety instructions
Any changes on the part of the user are not permitted. This applies equally to safety
features designed to prevent accidental contact.
3.1 Obligations of the user
• The operator must ensure that all persons involved in installation, operation, maintenance and repair
have read and understood these operating instructions (BA) and comply with them at all times in order
to:
─ avoid injury or damage,
─ ensure the safety and reliability of the coupling,
─ avoid disruptions and environmental damage through incorrect use.
• During transport, assembly, installation, dismantling, operation and maintenance of the unit, the
relevant safety and environmental regulations must be complied with at all times.
• The coupling may only be operated, maintained and/or repaired by persons qualified for the work
concerned (see "Qualified personnel" on page 3 of this manual).
• All work must be carried out with great care and with due regard to safety.
• All work on the coupling must be carried out only when it is at a standstill.

4. Transport and storage
Observe the instructions in section 3, "Safety instructions"!
4.1 Scope of supply
The products supplied are listed in the dispatch papers. Check on receipt to ensure that all the products
listed have actually been delivered. Parts damaged during transport or missing parts must be reported in
writing immediately.
The ZAPEX coupling is delivered in separate parts and/or subassemblies (for transport) ready for
installation, but without oil or grease charge.
4.2 Transport
During transport, use only lifting and handling equipment of sufficient loadbearing
capacity!
The coupling must be transported using suitable transport equipment only.
Different forms of packaging may be used depending on the size of the coupling and method of transport.
Unless otherwise agreed, the packaging complies with the HPE Packaging Guidelines.
The symbols marked on the packing must be observed at all times. These have the following meanings:

4.3 Storage of the coupling
4.3.1 Storage of the coupling parts
The coupling is delivered in a preserved condition and can be stored in a covered, dry place for up to
6 months. If the unit is to be stored for a longer period, it should be treated with a longterm preservative
agent (Flender must be consulted).
4.3.2 Storage of the DUO sealing rings
4.3.2.1 General
Correct storage will preserve the service life of the DUO sealing rings (12). Unfavourable storage
conditions and improper treatment will negatively affect the physical properties of the DUO sealing
rings (12). Such negative effects may be caused by e.g. the action of ozone, extreme temperatures, light,
moisture, or solvents.
The DUO sealing rings (12) must not be stored while still fastened on the coupling
part (1, 2).
4.3.2.2 Storage area
The storage area must be dry and free from dust. The DUO sealing rings (12) must not be stored with
chemicals, solvents, motor fuels, acids, etc. Furthermore, they should be protected against light, in
particular direct sunlight and bright artificial light with a high ultraviolet content.
The storage areas must not contain any ozonegenerating equipment, e.g. fluorescent
light sources, mercury vapour lamps, highvoltage electrical equipment. Damp
storage areas are unsuitable. Ensure that no condensation occurs. The most
favourable atmospheric humidity is below 65 %.

5. Technical description
Observe the instructions in section 3, "Safety instructions"!
If a dimensioned drawing has been made out for the coupling, the data in this drawing
must be given priority.
5.1 General description
ZAPEX type ZWBT, ZWBG, ZWB, ZWH and ZWHD couplings are provided for connecting two shafts. The
shaft ends to be connected must be supported immediately upstream of and downstream of the coupling.
ZAPEX couplings are suitable for clockwise and anticlockwise rotation and reversing operation.
The coupling parts (1, 2) with external teeth engage with the internal teeth of the flanged sleeves (5) and/or
coupling sleeve (5).
For the types ZWBT, ZWB, ZWBG and ZWH, DUO sealing rings (12) are used on the outside for sealing
the oil chambers.

Torque transmission is effected from the shaft over parallel key, shrink fit or a comparable connection to
the coupling part (1), then over the tooth system to the sleeve (5) and then via the fitting-screw
connection (8, 9) to the second sleeve (5), over the tooth system to the coupling part (2) and then again
via the parallel key, shrink fit or a comparable connection to the shaft. The brake disk (13) is located
between the flanged sleeves (5).
In case of types ZWBT and ZWBG the axial backlash is restricted by the twopart retaining ring (52).

(7)
Torque is transmitted from the shaft over parallel key, shrink fit or a comparable connection to the coupling
part (1), then over the tooth system to the coupling sleeve (5) and from here over the tooth system to the
coupling part (2) and then again via the parallel key, shrink fit or a comparable connection to the shaft.
Type ZWHD is designed for flow-through lubrication and is thus not equipped with DUO sealing rings (12).

6. Fitting
Observe the instructions in section 3, "Safety instructions"!
If a dimensioned drawing has been made out for the coupling, the data in this drawing
must be given priority.
6.1 Instructions for applying the finished bore and fitting the axial retaining means, set screws and balancing
According to the order placed, the coupling parts (1/2) for removal by oil-hydraulic shrinking off are
delivered with finished bores.
6.1.1 Finished bore for parallel-key connection
• Depreserve coupling parts (1/2).
Note manufacturer’s instructions for handling solvent.
For making the finished bore, the coupling parts must be clamped as shown in the following figure.
The clamping chuck must always be opposite the sealing surface.
The coupling part must be aligned carefully. For the permissible radial eccentricity see DIN ISO 286 degree
of fundamental tolerance IT 6 (see table 6.1).
The maximum permissible bore diameters (see section 1) are designed for
parallel-key connections without taper action to DIN 6885/1 and must not under any
circumstances be exceeded.
When the keyway is to be designed deviating from DIN 6885/1 for a parallel-key
connection, Flender should be consulted.
If other shaft-hub connections (e.g. spline bore hub profile, tapered or stepped bores, parallel-key
connections with tightening) are to be used instead of the provided parallel-key connection, Flender
should be consulted.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in breakage of the coupling.
Danger from flying fragments!

In case of a parallel-key connection the following is recommended for bore and shaft:
Shaft end tolerances h6 k6 m6 n6 p6 s6
Bore tolerances P7 M7 K7 J7 H7 F7
Table 6.2: Fit pairs
The tolerance field must be observed in order to restrict the hub tension resulting from
the oversize to the permissible load. Failure to adhere to the assigned tolerance zones
may impair the shafthub connection.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in breakage of the coupling.
Danger from flying fragments!
6.1.1.1 Parallel keyway
With the parallel key connection to DIN 6885/1 and a single keyway the tolerance zone of the hub keyway
width ISO P9 is recommended.
With the parallel key connection to DIN 6885/1 and two keyways the tolerance zone of the hub keyway
width ISO JS9 is recommended.
6.1.2 Axial securing in case of parallel-key connection
A set screw or end plate must be provided to secure the coupling parts axially. If end plates are used,
Flender must be consulted with regard to machining the recesses in the coupling parts.

Operating instructions 10/2017
6.1.3 Set screws in case of parallel-key connection
Hexagon socket set screws with cup points to DIN 916 must be used for set screws.
The following guidelines must be observed!
The length of the set screw must be selected so that it fills the threaded hole, but does
not project from the hub (Lmin. = d1).
The set screws should generally be arranged on the parallel key. Check the length of
the parallel key.
The threaded holes are to be arranged in accordance with the drawing considering the used version A or
B for the coupling parts (1/2).
In case of size 112, the set screws must generally be arranged in the hub side which has not been ground.
