New Voith Turbo Fluid Coupling 1330 DTL for Voith Water Thruster (VWT)
01 October 2004 12:33
Voith Turbo developed the fluid coupling type 1330 DTL for the latest VWT generation. This is the biggest surface-cooled hydrodynamic coupling with constant fill Voith ever built.
Usable up to a capacity of 3,000kW at 900rpm, the 1330 DTL represents the extension of the former DTL series. The most compact coupling is easy to mount and requires the lowest degree of maintenance expenditure.
After a 12-months period of development and testing the 1330 DTL has been introduced in the market and was highly welcomed. Voith Turbo already received orders for a total of 16 couplings for 8 VWT; they expect more orders for 10 units at short sight.
The first two units are successfully operated with Bugser Og Berging A/S in Norway since January 2004.
