Technical Notes
Duty Ratings
Ratings apply to marine diesel engines at the indicated speeds. At other engine speeds, the respective power capacity (kW) of the
transmission can be obtained by multiplying the Power/Speed ratio by the speed. Approximate conversion factors:
1 kW = 1.36 metric hp
1 kW = 1.34 U.S. hp (SAE)
1 U.S. hp = 1.014 metric hp
1 Nm = 0.74 lb.ft.
1 Kg = 0.454 lb
Ratings apply to right hand turning engines, i.e. engines having counterclockwise rotating flywheels when viewing the flywheel end of the
engine. These ratings allow full power through forward and reverse gear trains, unless otherwise stated. Contact your nearest ZF Sales and
Service office for ratings applicable to gas turbines, as well as left hand turning engines, and marine transmissions for large horsepower
capacity engines. Ratings apply to marine transmissions currently in production or in development and are subject to change without prior
notice.
NOTE: The maximum rated input power must not be exceeded (see respective ratings in the technical data sheets).
Safe Operating Notice
The safe operation of ZF products depends upon adherence to technical data presented in our brochures. Safe operation also depends upon
proper installation, operation and routine maintenance and inspection under prevailing conditions and recommendations set forth by ZF.
Damage to transmission caused by repeated or continous emergency manoeuvres or abnormal operation is not covered under warranty. It is
the responsibility of users and not ZF to provide and install guards and safety devices, which may be required by recognized safety standards
of the respective country (e.g. for U.S.A. - the Occupational Safety Act of 1970 and its subsequent provisions).
Monitoring Notice
The safe operation of ZF products depends upon adherence to ZF monitoring recommendations presented in our operating manuals, etc. It is
the responsibility of users and not ZF to provide and install monitoring devices and safety interlock systems as may be deemed prudent by ZF.
Consult ZF for details and recommendations.
Survey Society Classification
In most cases, the maximum medium and continous duty ratings permitted by ZF are accepted in full by major classification societies. If
classification is required, contact ZF regarding proper procedures (also for yacht service and ice classifications service).
Dimensions and Weights
Dimensions and weights refer to transmissions with bell housing (where appropriate) but excluding options such as: trolling valves, power
take-offs, propeller shaft companion flanges, torsional couplings etc.
