RINGSPANN SAG series torque limiters are safety couplings that protect transmissions against overloads. When the set torque is exceeded, the mechanism disengages the movement and prevents damage to motors, gearboxes, chains and structures. They are used in production lines, conveyors, mills and equipment where an overload can be costly. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with technical advice to choose the right model.

The SAG designation is read as a family of torque limiters from the RINGSPANN brand. The number that follows identifies the size of the unit: SAG 4, SAG 7, SAG 11 and SAG 14 are the sizes available in this line. Each size accepts a range of set torque and different mounting configurations. To select the right one, you must start from the nominal torque of the transmission and the maximum permissible torque. The complete part number may include connection variants, but that is defined with the manufacturer according to the application.

In Argentine industry, these limiters are mounted on belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, positive displacement pumps and packaging machines. They also appear in crane drives and material handling equipment. The function is always the same: when torque exceeds the set value, the limiter disengages and stops the transmission before a component breaks. On restart, the system re-engages without the need to replace parts.

To choose the model, take into account the working torque, starting peaks and the type of load. Adjustment is made by spring preload or by calibrated elements, and must be above the normal torque but below the strength of the weakest part. Alignment between shafts is critical: misalignment generates parasitic loads that can trip the limiter prematurely. Lubrication and sealing also influence the repeatability of the trip. If the equipment works with heavy vibration, it is advisable to review the mounting and fastening.

RINGSPANN torque limiters can be interchanged with those of other European brands that use similar ball or roller with spring systems. Equivalence is not automatic: the set torque, flange dimensions, shaft diameter and coupling type must be compared. In many cases a model from another brand can be adapted if the mechanical interfaces match. For that, the best approach is to send the original part number and measurements to the technical team at MR Accesorios Industriales.

If you need a torque limiter for a specific machine, write to us on WhatsApp with the SAG model you have or with your transmission data: torque, speed, shaft diameter and mounting type. At MR Accesorios Industriales we help you identify the right variant and quote it shortly.
