The highly flexible VSK coupling is an integral component for connecting the combustion engine to the right-angle gear drive of the fire pump system. By using the VSK highly flexible coupling, the drive train can be protected from dynamic overload, reduce resonance-induced vibratory torques and provide a convenient connection between the combustion engine and drive shaft.
The selection of the Reich VSK coupling is initially sized based on the power ratings of the combustion engine. Reich offers nine sizes of VSK couplings to cover the complete power range of the fire pump industry.
