RINGSPANN RSC series torque limiters are safety components for power transmissions: when torque exceeds the set value, they disengage the transmission and prevent the overload from damaging the motor, gearbox, shafts or tools. They are used in lines where a jam or a sudden start can break something expensive. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as exclusive representative of RINGSPANN, and quotes each model by its code.

The RSC series designation is read by the size and by the suffix that follows the period. In the examples RSC 40.1, RSC 40.2, RSC 50.1, RSC 50.2, RSC 63.1, RSC 63.2, RSC 80.1 and RSC 80.2, the large number identifies the limiter size within the series, and the digit after the period distinguishes execution variants of the same size. Therefore, two units with the same base number may differ in their mounting method or configuration. To choose correctly, provide the complete code as shown on the drawing or on the equipment nameplate.

These limiters are used in transmissions where torque must be cut in the event of an overload: material conveyors and elevators, mixers, mills, positive displacement pumps, woodworking machines, packaging lines and process equipment. In Argentine industry they appear in food, cement, chemical and paper plants and in maintenance workshops that replace safety components. They are also used to protect motors and gearboxes in machines that start under load or that can jam due to material accumulation.

To select the limiter, you must start from the nominal torque of the transmission and the desired trip torque, as well as the type of coupling with the shafts or pulleys. Installation requires proper shaft alignment and respect for the intended direction of rotation. Lubrication and sealing of the assembly influence the repeatability of the trip, and the reset must remain accessible to avoid losing time on each intervention. If the equipment operates with vibration or dust, it is advisable to review the protection and the type of execution before defining the model.

As for equivalences, torque limiters are compared by function, size and mounting method rather than by a single nomenclature among manufacturers. A model from another brand may cover a similar range, but the adjustment torque, coupling dimensions and reset method must be verified before replacing. It is not advisable to rely only on the size number: the suffix execution changes the mounting. With the complete RSC code, the correct alternative can be found within the RINGSPANN line.

If you have the limiter code, the assembly drawing or a photo of the nameplate, send it via WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales and we will quote the corresponding model. We can also advise you if you need to replace an existing limiter or define the RSC series variant for a new transmission. With more than 80 years in the field, at MR we work with power transmission components and handle technical inquiries from all over the country.
