Mechanical Power Take-Off Units Selection Process How To Choose The Appropriate PTO Several factors must be considered in the selection process in addition to duty service, such as: SPEED LIMITS • SIDE-LOAD LIMITS • CLUTCH TORQUE LIMITS The selections are usual dry clutch disconnect type applications where engagements are infrequent and are at low (idle) input speed. Once engaged operation continues for one hour or more, engaging the clutch at higher input speed will reduce component life. Refer to the following duty classifications and examples. Application Data*: SAE Housing Size Input Power...
