Single Reduction Speed Reducer Selection Procedure

To properly select a speed reducer, the following application information must be known:

Input RPM (Ratio)
Output Torque
Input Horsepower

Service Factor
Non-Motorized Speed Reducer
1. Determine service factor from table below.
2. Determine design horsepower.
Design Horsepower = Application Load x Service Factor
3. Select a speed reducer size that satisfies output RPM, service class and/or output torque requirements.
4. Check overhung load capacity.

Motorized Speed Reducer
1. Determine service class from table below.
2. Select a reducer size that satisfies output RPM, service class and/or output torque requirements.
3. Check overhung load capacity.
