OHLA and CD Couplings For Industrial Fans & Blowers
Zero-Max offers Standard & Custom Power Transmission Solutions
Overhung Load Adaptors (OHLA®) absorb radial and axial loads in industrial fans and blowers to extend the lifespan of your motor and mobile hydraulic equipment. Zero-Max is a leading supplier of OHLAs, CD® Couplings and other power transmission components designed to protect your system in the most demanding applications without compromising the speed or efficiency of your fan, radiator, or blower system. Our engineers can customize OHLAs and Flexible Shaft Couplings to fit your specific needs across most industries, including agriculture, forestry, mining and more.
Industrial Fan & Blower Power Transmission Product Benefits
Zero-Max’s OHLAs are designed to absorb radial and axial loads normally exerted on hydraulic motors and pumps by radiator or industrial fan or blowers in mobile hydraulic equipment. This ensures premium performance while extending the lifespan of your equipment, saving on expensive replacement costs and greatly reducing operational downtime. Our OHLAs require virtually no maintenance and can handle high loads and high speed operation. Additionally, these field-proven OHLAs provide a solid, permanent mounting surface while also permitting the removal of hydraulic motors/pumps for servicing without disturbing driven gears, pulleys, or sprockets.
Zero-Max’s OHLAs also feature additional seal protection that serves as a contamination barrier to keep out dirt and other contaminants from hydraulic systems. Over 75% of Zero-Max OHLAs are customized to meet application specific requirements, with popular customizations including specialized mountings, dimensions, materials, and additional requests. Zero-Max OHLAs are durable enough to absorb radial and axial loads in demanding environments.
