Shal Engineers Provide power transmission options, the belt drive’s simple design and manufacturability make it a cost-effective alternative. Shal Engineers offers OEM belt drives Transmission for cooling tower models. Belt drives produce about 95 percent efficiency. Beyond its low initial cost, the belt drive’s exposed components require frequent maintenance, so higher operating cost can be expected.

In a belt-driven, the motor and motor sheave supplies power to the belt, which is attached to the fan shaft by a sheave. A bearing and bushing hold it all together.

This technology offers smooth and effective transmission of power between shafts, even if they are at a considerable distance. Regular belt lubrication and tensioning are required to ensure proper power transmission and cooling tower operation.
