CENTRAL  DRIVE  MECHANISM  FOR  TOWERCLOCKS                         2-sided  and  4-sided

drive  with capacitor motor with thermal protection                           gears  phosphor bronze worm wheel gears with adjustable ball bearing, precision functioning free from play with worm wheel drive                   housing weather-resistant aluminium power supply  230V / 50-60Hz / 150VA drive  minute impuls  24V DC                   or   230V AC                                               reset after power failure by cycle delay unit for master clock in common power circuit  or  extern  ZSP-unit

DIAL TRAINS  are precise and durable gears whitch convert the minute rotation of the minute arbor to the hour tube. The environmental forces working on the dial trains such as wind pressure and icing are compensated by solid construction an proffessional installation            Dial face Ø    max. 2,5m  or  4,0m         Minute arbor    A  14 mm Ø               Hour tube          B   25 mm Ø               Drive tube         C   35 mm Ø 

BEVEL  GEARS  are installed in   the transmission between the  towerclock central drive and the       dial trains

 

DIAL  FACES  and  HANDS                     The apearance of the dial faces and hands has been developed in consultation with the Austrian Historic Building Departement and the Diocesan Bilding Authorities.          Their polyester construction guarantees high resistance to wind and stresses coused by weather. The dye penetration of the material itself ensures that no colour change occurs even after years.  This form of production has been in continuous and successful use since 1968

ZBLR  round for diameter from 0,7-3,0m   ZBLQ  square for side lenght of                0,7-3,0 m

HANDS                                        Typ  Z810  standard - form ( konish ) for dial face diam. from  0,7 to 7,0m                 Typ Z814  standard - form ( tradition ) for dial face diam. from  0,7 to 4,0m                 Typ Z824  standard - form ( baroke )  for dial face diam. from  0,7 to 4,0m

MAGNETIC  HAMMER  TRAIN     

electromechanical device which strikes the quaters and hours on a bell.  Striking train impulse from the master clock.  the striking force required can be set individually to suit the size of bell.                              The powerpack rectifies the voltage from 230V AC  to  180V DC                 dimensions in cm see sketch

MOTORISED  LIFTING  TRAINS electromechanical devices whitch actuate the hammer trains for striking the quaters and hours via chain and cable pull on a bell.           Lifting hammer trains for bells from   50 kg to more then 10 tons

HAMMER  TRAINS                Typ  HWK                                              for bells up to        700kg                      Typ  HWM                                             for bells up to     1.500kg                      Typ  HWG                                              for bells up to   10.000kg  and more

 

MOTORISED  DIAL  TRAIN                  for driving the hands directly. They are used in towers where install a central drive mechanism for the towerclock is impossible or the tower only has one dial face.

TECHNICAL  PARAMETERS                 like central drive mechanism                    Dial face Ø    max. 2,5m  or  4,0m         Minute arbor    A  14 mm Ø               Hour tube          B   25 mm Ø               Drive tube         C   35 mm Ø
