(English-Inch)

Omega Elastomeric Couplings

OEM Performance and Coverage
The unique split-in-half flex element and reversible hubs
significantly reduce total costs by reducing inventory and
assembly time.
Rexnord Omega couplings are non-lubricated, material-flexing
couplings utilizing a specially formulated polyurethane material
engineered for maximum durabilty, strength and fatigue
resistance.

Features and Benefits

Torsionally Soft
Flex Element

Split-in-Half Design

The Rex Omega HSU coupling (green) is specifically designed

for hot and humid conditions.
Rexnord is the leading coupling provider in the industry with a
full-line of available solutions supported by trained customer
service and application engineering professionals focused only
on our coupling product line. For more information, contact
your local Rexnord account executive.

Radial Bolting

The Rexnord Omega

HSU coupling (green) is
specifically designed for hot
and humid environments.

Torsionally soft flex

element cushions shock
loads and vibration
extending equipment life

In addition, the HSU material

performs well in caustic
and acidic environments.
Consult Rexnord engineering

Rexnord Omega couplings operate in

either horizontal or vertical applications
without any additional components.
Ease of installation, ease of
maintenance, and visual inspection
make these couplings a must for
many applications such as this mash
cooker in a brewery.Never operate

coupling without an OSHA approved guard.

Installation

Place half of the Rexnord Omega

element around hubs and secure with
self-locking capscrews. Omega
element will space the other hub.
Now secure the other hub.

Mount one hub to shaft, leave other

hub loose for adjustment of spacing.

Mount other half of the Omega

element. Tighten all capscrews to
recommended torques below and
youre done! Refer to the installation
instruction for further details.

Tested Tough
Rigorous testing demonstrates that
the Rexnord Omega coupling protects
connected equipment from the damaging
effects of misalignment, vibration and
gross overload. Where other coupling
designs might allow equipment
damage, the super flexible element of
Rexnord Omega couplings minimizes
the reactionary forces on equipment
bearings under severe misalignment
conditions and reduces the effects
of excessive shock overloads.

Severe static testing (5 rating)

shows element flexibility, rugged
design and positive adhesive
bond to the metal shoes.

Note:
Any combination of parallel and angular misalignment which falls under the triangle
will not cause a premature fatigue failure of the flexible element in normal use.

NOTE: Capscrews have self locking patches which
should not be reused more than twice. Capscrews can
be further used if a thread locking adhesive is applied.
Do NOT Lubricate Capscrew Threads
Important Note:
Coupling alignment is directly related to
smooth, efficient equipment operation. Care
should be taken for best possible alignment.

Adjustability
Shaft Spacing Possibilities
(Using Straight Bore Hubs)
The Rexnord Omega spacer coupling design (pages 6-7) provides clear space between hubs. There are no interfering center
members or spools which allows shaft spacing as small as 1/4; however, for such small spacings, use of the standard Omega coupling
would be recommended. The maximum shaft spacing for each coupling is shown of pages 6-7. Any ANSI, ISO or DIN spacing between
/4 inch and the maximum listed can be achieved without any additional parts. Hubs can be placed on the shafts as shown below.

(OUT)

(OUT)

Figure A
Both hubs mounted outboard

(IN)

Figure B

(IN)

(IN)

Figure C
Both hubs mounted inward

Use one half of the flex element to establish shaft spacing and appropriate mounting position. Optional hole mounting positions
and reversible hubs allow adjustments as needed. Select the combination which most closely matches the dimensions
desired between shafts (Figure D). Drawings with specific mounting positions/dimensions are available from Rexnord.

Figure D

Note: Optional capscrew hole mounting positions

allow easy on-site adjustment to meet
various shaft spacing requirements.

Hubs can be flush with the shaft end (not shown), extended beyond the end of the shaft (Figure E) or recessed
behind the shaft end provided there is sufficient keyway engagement (Figure F). Special sleeve extensions
(see page 9) are available for spacing requirements in excess of those listed on pages 6-7.

Note: Shaft engagement should be equal to or

greater than .8 times shaft diameter.
100% shaft engagement is suggested for
compression bushed hubs.
Figure E

Figure F

Extended Spacer Coupling

Rexnord Omega extended spacer couplings are designed to connect equipment with shaft spacing requirements
beyond the Omega spacer coupling capabilities. They are ideal for applications with wide non-standard shaft
gaps, and can be an economic alternative to floating shaft couplings (i.e. stock pump applications).
Sleeve extensions (SE) are furnished in steel. They mount to regular Omega spacer elements (standard
elements for sizes E100 & E120) and cast iron or steel hubs straight bore or compression bushed design.
By adjusting the hub/shaft engagement (see figures E&F on page 8) and spacer element mounting position,
the Omega extended spacer coupling can be utilized for many shaft spacing requirements.

Selection Procedures
Table 1

1. Determine HP/100RPM: HP/100 RPM = Horsepower x 100

RPM
2. Determine Service Factor:
Select the proper Service Factor from Table on page
13. If not listed, see Load Classification Table.
Remember to consider both driver and driven
equipment and temperature requirements.
3. Multiply HP/100 by the service factor to get equivalent HP/100 RPM.
4. Select the Coupling Size:
From Table 1, with a rating equal to or greater than the
equivalent HP/100 RPM determined in Step 3.
5. Check Limiting Conditions:
Be sure that the operating speed of the coupling does
not exceed maximum RPMlisted on page 4-7.
6. Select Desired Hub Type:
Select desired hub type and check maximum
allowable coupling bore on page 14.

Service Factors
Service Factors are a means of classifying different equipment and applications into various load classifications.
Due to variations in application of equipment, service factors are used to adjust equipment ratings to accommodate
for variable loading conditions. This is a general guide. More specific factors are given on page 13.
Load Classifications

Continuous service and running loads vary only slightly.

*Added to application service factor

For shock loading and substantial torque variations.

2.5

For heavy shock loading or light reversing drives.

3.0

Reversing torque loads do not necessarily mean reversal

of rotation. Depending upon severity of torque reversal,
such loads must be classified between medium and
extreme.

Consult Rexnord

The service factor adjustment

for high temperature is in
addition to the service factor
consideration for the driver and
driven equipment. However, if
high temperatures are typical for
a specific application, maximum
temperature consideration is
incorporated into the typical
service factor listing on page 13.
i.e., steel mill runout tables.

The Service Factors listed are intended only as a general guide and for smooth
power sources such as electric motors. For reciprocating prime movers, such as
diesel or gas engines, add the following service factor:
For 8 or more cylinders, add 0.5
For 6 cylinders, add 1.0
For 4 cylinders, add 1.5
For less than 4 cylinders, consult Rexnord
If both driver and driven equipment are reciprocating, consult Rexnord.
Add 0.5 to service factor if drive is a hydraulic motor.
Omega couplings are not recommended for turbine drives if the coupling cannot be
protected from steam leakage or from speeds in excess of the couplings published
speed rating (pages 4-7).
Consult Rexnord Engineering

IMPORTANT NOTE The coupling selection criteria is intended for the

determination of the coupling and style only. It is also recommended that the system
be analyzed for torsional and lateral stability using the specific coupling mass-elastic
data available from Rexnord. This analysis is the responsibility of the user since the
coupling is only a single component in the system.
CAUTION In the drive systems sensitive to axial movement (i.e. sleeve bearing
equipment), it may be necessary to limit axial force and/or displacement. Consult
Rexnord for proper installation procedure.
