Lightweight heavy-duty drive systems

02 October 2017

For harsh environments and rough handling conditions, the nsd tupH Sealed Surface Conversion System from Nord Drivesystems provides corrosion-protection that penetrates deep below the drive surface.

The treatment is available for worm, helical inline, and helical bevel gearboxes, smooth-surface motors, distributed frequency inverters and motor starters with an aluminum casing. Users will benefit from the long lifespan of drive technology with nsd tupH protection, which is said to considerably lowers maintenance requirements and costs and increases plant availability.

Die-cast aluminum casings feature both a very good thermal performance and a lower weight than cast-iron or stainless-steel versions. This facilitates handling of nsd tupH drives. Moreover, they are suitable for easy cleaning with high-pressure steam jets. The drive surface is hardened to become extremely impact-resistant.

No coating is applied, so the corrosion-protection cannot be impaired by scratches or chipping. The protection provided by nsd tupH is especially vital in offshore applications and other maritime environments, since salty air speeds up the corrosion process.
