Smooth Motion Control...
Kinetrol rotary dashpots are precision fluid damping devices which give a smooth resistance to shaft rotation which increases with angular velocity. Two types of dashpots are available to suit a wide range of applications.
- The Vane Dashpot is a displacement damper.
- As the vane on the shaft rotates between fixed vanes on the body, silicone fluid is displaced through controlled clearances from one side of the vane to the other.
- Damping can be in both directions or valves can be fitted to give damping in one direction only.
- Fixed damping rates or adjustable damping rates.
Kinetrol Vane Dashpots.
- Continuous Rotation Dashpots give viscous damping by shearing thin layers of silicone fluid between the concentric surfaces of a rotor and a fixed stator.
- Damping is normally in both directions.
- Damping is adjusted by varying the effective thickness of the sheared layer of fluid by moving the stator relative to the rotor.
