Slip Device Application Calculator
Inputs
Speed
RPM
Speed change of driven system when clutch is engaged
Inertia
Kg-m^2
Total rotational inertia of your driven system 
Slip Device Torque
N-m
Select a torque from the available options below:
  SA: 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 0.95 N-m
SB: 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.7 N-m
System Friction Torque
N-m
Total drag torque of your driven system
Cycles/Second
 
Outputs
Slip Time
msec
 
Max Cycles SA
mil. cycles
If neither of these numbers meets the expected number of cycles for your application, consider alternate means.
Max Cycles SB
mil. cycles
Single Cycle Energy
joules
If single cycle energy exceed 850 Joules for the SA or 300 Joules for the SB, consider alternate means.
Average Power
watts
If average wattage exceeds 2 watts for the SA or 1.25 watts for the SB, consider alternate means.
Continuous Duty Power
watts
If continuous wattage exceeds 2 watts for the SA or 1.25 watts for the SB, the device will overheat if slipped continuously.
