4.2 Hint regarding the finish bore
STOP
DANGER !
The maximum permissible bore diameters d (see table 1 in
chapter 1 - Technical Data) must not be exceeded. If these
figures are disregarded, the coupling may tear. Rotating
particles may cause serious danger.
•Hub-/coupling flange bores machined by the customer have to
observe concentric running or axial running, respectively (see
picture 5).
•Please make absolutely sure to observe the figures for dmax.
•Carefully align the hub and the coupling flange when the finish
bores are brought in.
•Please provide for a setscrew or an end plate for the axial
fastening of the hub and the coupling flange.

4.3 Assembly of the Coupling
ATTENTION !
We recommend to check bores, shaft, keyway and feather key for dimensional accuracy
before assembly.
Heating the hub and coupling flange slightly (approx. 80 °C) allows for an easier installation onto the shaft.
PRECAUTION !
Please pay attention to the danger of ignition in hazardous areas.
STOP
DANGER !
Touching the heated parts causes burns.
We would recommend to wear safety gloves.
!
CAUTION !
For the assembly please make sure that the distance dimension E (see table 1) is kept to
ensure that the elastomer part can be moved axially.
Disregarding this hint may cause damage on the coupling.
•Assemble the hub and the coupling flange onto the shafts.
•Safe the coupling hub and the coupling flange by tightening the setscrews DIN 916 with cup point or by an end
disk.
•Put the elastomer part in front of the flange hub.
•First hand-screw the parts.
•Use screws of the property class 8.8 or higher.
•Tighten the screws with a suitable dynamometric key up to the tightening torques TAindicated in table 4.

•Displace the machine parts axially until the assembly dimension LHEW1 or LHEW2 is reached.
!
CAUTION !
For the assembly please make sure that the hub toothing is covered completely by the
internal toothing of the Elastomer part. (Please observe the assembly dimensions LHEW1
and LHEW2.)
In case of non-observance, the coupling can be damaged.
•If the position of the machine parts has already been indicated previously, the assembly dimension can be
adjusted by an axial displacement of the hub on the shaft.
4.4 Displacements - Alignment of the Couplings
The BoWex-ELASTIC®HEW couplings accept a deviation of position of the machine parts to be connected up to
the data indicated in table 5.
In case of the alignment, the radial and angular displacement should be as slight as possible, because the lifetime
is increased hereby under the same operating conditions.
The alignment of the BoWex-ELASTIC®HEW coupling has to be effected from the shaft-sided coupling hub to
one of the processed surfaces of the flange hub.
!
CAUTION !
In order to ensure a long lifetime of the coupling and to avoid dangers regarding the use in
hazardous areas, the shaft ends must be accurately aligned.
Please absolutely observe the displacement figures indicated (see table 5). If the figures are
exceeded, the coupling is damaged.
In case of a use in hazardous areas for the explosion group IIC (marking II 2G IIB T4), only the
half displacement figures (see table 5) are permissible.

A checking of the circumferential backlash and a visual check of the eleastomer part must
be effected after 3000 operating hours for the first time, after 6 months at the latest.
If you note an unconsiderable or no wear at the elastomer part after this first inspection, the
further inspections can be effected, in case of the same operating parameters, respectively
after 6000 operating hours or after 18 months at the latest.
If you note a considerable wear during the first inspection, so that a change of the
elastomer part would be recommended, please find out the cause according to the table
„Breakdowns“, as far as possible.
The maintenance intervals must be adjusted according to the changed operating
parameters.
