reflected to the clutch and brake shaft must be
known.

friction lining available to absorb heat
generated by stopping. Maximum bore for
an ATD-214 Low Inertia Brake is 4-1/8 inches.

Based on the given application data and
the following calculations, an ATD-224 Low
Inertia High Torque Clutch and ATD-214
Low Inertia Brake have been selected as
having sufficient torque and heat dissipation
capacity with minimum diameter and
sufficient bore capacity.

Note:
These application examples are for
preliminary sizing only. Contact a
Wichita Sales Engineer or the
factory for final selection.
