Both Driveline throughput (vehicle in motion) and PTO Aux. Applications cannot be engaged (operated) at the same time. Either the vehicle shall run on the road (Driveline) or in a stationary position the PTO Auxiliary Outputs can be engaged. This VAS Unique feature eliminates the possibility of an auxiliary application accident while vehicle is in motion. If Both Driveline and PTO Aux. applications are required (to be operated) simultaneously, kindly refer to our 300 & 360 series gearboxes which have both driveline & PTO Aux. simultaneous options.
After engaging or disengaging shifters, constant pneumatic air pressure is not required in VAS Gearboxes as a separate ball spring assembly is installed in the shifter assembly to LOCK the shifter shafts after shifting. Pneumatic air pressure is only required to shift (engage or disengage) the shifter shafts, after shifting, pneumatic air pressure can be removed.
Enhanced Durability and Precision Engineering
Constructed using alloy steel and precision casting, the VAS H3C+ gearbox provides exceptional durability and accuracy. The helical gear tooth profile and planetary gearing arrangement enable high efficiency and low noise, making this unit ideal for continuous industrial applications.
Superior Protection and Versatile Mounting
With an IP55 protection grade, the gearbox is safeguarded against dust and water infiltration, ensuring reliable performance. Its foot-mounted design allows for easy installation in multiple orientations, catering to both right and left directional use.
FAQ's of VAS H3C+:
Q: How does the oil bath lubrication system benefit the VAS H3C+ gearbox?
A: The oil bath lubrication ensures that all gears and bearings are continuously coated with oil, reducing wear and friction. This results in smoother operation, lower maintenance requirements, and an extended service life of over 10,000 hours.
Q: What application areas are ideal for using the VAS H3C+ gearbox?
A: This gearbox is particularly well-suited for industrial automation systems and conveyor lines, where high torque, reliable performance, and quiet operation are critical. Its robust design also makes it suitable for other heavy-duty industrial environments.
Q: When is it recommended to perform maintenance on this gearbox?
A: Thanks to its oil bath lubrication and precision engineering, the VAS H3C+ requires only periodic maintenance. It is typically advisable to check oil levels and seals every few months or as recommended in the operational manual to ensure optimal performance.
Q: Where can the VAS H3C+ be installed for best performance?
A: The foot-mounted design allows for secure installation on industrial machinery layouts. Its IP55 rating enables placement in areas exposed to industrial dust or moisture, making it suitable for manufacturing plants and automated conveyor setups.
Q: What is the benefit of the planetary helical gearing arrangement used in the VAS H3C+?
A: Planetary helical gears distribute forces evenly while providing high torque and high efficiency (up to 95%). This design also minimizes noise and vibration, enhancing operational comfort and energy savings during extended use.
Q: How does the protection grade IP55 support the longevity of the gearbox?
A: IP55 protection safeguards the internal components from dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, reducing the risk of premature wear and costly downtime, thus supporting consistent long-term operation.
