This compact clutch allows for remote pump actuation

Force Control Industries

The PosiClutch 200 Series PTO clutch (photo) is a hydraulically actuated, microprocessor-controlled Oil Shear PTO clutch, which is designed for high-volume pump applications. The clutch mounts on a diesel engine with an SAE 00 flywheel housing, and can include up to four pump pads to drive additional hydraulic pumps, to 400 hp. This enables remote engagement of pumps, which makes them applicable in wastewater-treatment, flood-control and other high-volume applications. Advanced engineering-design elements eliminate the need for separate transmission-fluid cooling equipment, thereby eliminating components, hoses and fittings that are prone to leakage and failure, says the company. The clutch has a length of just 33.25 in., including sheave support bracket. It features an enclosed, heavy-duty, foot-mounted, cast-iron sealed housing that enables operation in dirty, dusty and wet environments, indoors or outside. — Force Control Industries, Fairfield, Ohio
