SUNTES NCLU-Series lock-type centrifugal clutches integrate a centrifugal clutch with a gear clutch in a compound assembly. The listed range comprises NCLU-136, NCLU-156, NCLU-186, NCLU-218, NCLU-248 and NCLU-308. The range combines speed-dependent frictional engagement with the functions of a gear-clutch arrangement for engine-driven power transmission systems.
Compound clutch concept
The centrifugal clutch and gear clutch serve complementary roles within the assembly. Centrifugal engagement supports gradual pickup of the driven load as the driving machine accelerates, while the gear-clutch section is part of the mechanical connection arrangement. The overall operating behaviour depends on the complete machine layout and control sequence. Specify the intended duty and connection requirements before selecting the model, rather than choosing only by the space available in the machine.
System functions and application review
The lock-type clutch concept supports engine-only operation, prevention of reverse rotation of the driving machine, automatic engine/motor changeover, cushioned starting and flexible coupling functions. These are possible system applications; they should be matched to the actual installation and required operating mode. For an engine/motor arrangement, define how the driving sources are to be connected and changed over, and have the complete operating sequence reviewed with the selected clutch configuration.
Six sizes with distinct installation envelopes
The dimension table provides A, B, C, D, E, F, H, J, P, R, S and diameter U for all six models, together with mass. Dimension A ranges from 960 mm on NCLU-136 to 1,520 mm on NCLU-308, while dimension E ranges from 1,160 mm to 1,880 mm. The listed diameter U values are 70, 85, 95, 95, 125 and 140 mm respectively. These values must be checked against the actual dimensional drawing; the letter designations are drawing references and should not be reassigned to an assumed component feature.
Mass and drawing notation
The published masses are 350 kg for NCLU-136, 430 kg for NCLU-156, 800 kg for NCLU-186, 850 kg for NCLU-218, 1,150 kg for NCLU-248 and 2,100 kg for NCLU-308. Account for the selected assembly when planning support, handling and maintenance access. Entries in column B, such as 430-2 and 485-2, are retained as drawing notation. They are not subtraction expressions and should be interpreted using the corresponding dimensional drawing.
Selection and ordering information
State the full NCLU model, driving-machine type, power and operating speed, driven-machine duty, load inertia, start frequency, shaft interfaces and mounting arrangement. Include the required control sequence and any engine/motor changeover function. The dimensional table does not specify a torque rating, engagement speed or permissible maximum speed. Confirm those performance requirements, the approved operating procedure and the latest assembly drawing before final selection or machining mating components.

Models, dimensions and technical data
Dimensions are in millimetres unless otherwise specified. Lettered dimensions refer to the corresponding drawings; diameter symbols and drawing references are retained.
