PC ChainSelection procedureChain selection for Drive application1. Determining the sizeSelect a chain size that satisfies the following equation.Calculate design chain tension Fd(kN)Maximum WorkingFd = xLoad on the chainServicefactor, KsxSpeedfactor, KvxSprocketteethfactor, KcFd < =Maximum AllowableLoad of the chainService factor: Ks (Table 1-1)Type of impactMachine exampleElectric motoror turbineInternal combustion engineWith hydraulicdriveWithout hydraulicdriveSmoothBelt conveyorChain conveyorCentrifugal blowersOrdinary textile machines1.0 1.0 1.2Speed factor: Kv (Table 1-2) Sprocket teeth factor: Kc (Table 1-3)Chain speed7Factor0 ~ 15 m/min 1.015 ~ 30 m/min 1.230 ~ 50 m/min 1.450 ~ 70 m/min 1.6Chain selection for Conveyor application1. Confirming the conveying conditionsType of conveyor (i.e. Slat conveyor, Bucket conveyor etc.)Conveying Angle (i.e. Horizontal, Inclined, Perpendicular)Type, dimensions and mass of conveyed materials/objectsConveyor SpeedConveyor lengthAtmosphere in which conveyor is operated (i.e. temperature, corrosive factors etc.)(Presence or absence of lubrication)2. Tentative selection of a chain sizeF (kN) = w x f1 x Kv x g1000w: Mass of conveyed objects (excluding chain) kgf1: Coefficient of sliding friction (Table 3 -1)Kv: Speed factor (Table 1-2)* If 2 parallel strands are used, chain type and size should be determined using F/2 suchthat chain tension is less than the maximum allowed.3.

For disassembly, position the jig under a pinlink plate, as shown in the diagram, and pressdown on the pin heads. Please take care not tostrike the engineering plastic portion of thechain which may result in fracture.2. Please consult Tsubaki concerning the specialpoly steel chain disassembly jig.3.
