Application Factors |
|
We shall use fA to designate the application factor (Ca or Ka in AGMA standards and Ka in ISO standards) pr external overload factor deriving from the operating characteristics of the driving and driven engines are defined according to uniform operation. Operation with light shocks and operation with medium shocks: also three classes of driven machine are defined according to uniform loads, medium shock loads, or heavy shock loads. Consult Table 1 for a general explanation. |
