Hello folks,
I have a dual drive skid that are Vbelts. A compressor is driven by either a Electric Motor or a diesel engine. The compressor sits in between the electric motor and the diesel engine. All pulleys/sheaves are rotating counter-clockwise. Engine and motor both have clutches for disengangement.
1. Compressor has a Pulley of 11.75 PCD 4 grooves running at 1340rpm which is the critical speed.
2. Engine has a Pulley of 6.6 PCD 2 groove running at 2386rpm
3. Electric motor Pulley to be designed, (2 grooves) Maximum RPM of motor is 1500rpm
My question is,
1. is there a minimum center to center sheave distance that is common industry practice? The belts are SPB type (compressor is british) and the engine is B type. Hope these will fit fine on the pulley
Based on the electric motor rpm of 1500 I have a Pulley size of 10.5"PCD
