The Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys present-ed in this catalogue have a long historyto tell. It goes back to the 1950’s, whenthe product was developed in Germanyand Denmark.
Eventually, through a merging processthe German Förder und AntriebstechnikAschersleben GmbH and the DanishJohn Kirkegaard Maskinfabrik A/Sbecame partners in the Interroll Group.
From the early 1990’s the manufacturingof all Interroll’s BULK Motorized Pulleyswere centralized in Aschersleben, Ger-many.
In July 2003 Rulli Rulmeca S.p.A. pur-chased the production facility in Ascher-sleben, Germany, where Motorized Pul-leys have been developed and producedfor almost half a century, along with theentire BULK Business Unit.
Today this plant, renamed RulmecaFAA GmbH, will continue the JOKI tradition for quality and reliability underthe Rulmeca brand.
Thanks to this long history Rulmeca is avery experienced manufacturer of BULKMotorized Pulleys, offering the world’slargest product range.

Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys: a new name with deep roots
Purpose-built designThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley has beenspecifically designed for belt conveyors.
Hermetically SealedThe motor, gearbox and bearings arehermetically sealed inside a steel shell.Therefore they are unlikely to fail due toharmful environmental conditions suchas water, dust, grit, chemicals, grease,oil, etc.
Space saving designBecause the drive unit and the bearingsare mounted inside the Motorized Pulleyshell, it requires much less room than anexposed drive. No need for costly extraslike chains, v-belts, couplings, bearings,support structure and special guarding.
SafetyThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is one ofthe safest drives available because themotor is completely enclosed and theexternal shafts are always stationary.The only moving external parts are theMotorized Pulley shell and bearing hous-ings.
Low purchasing and installation costThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is quiteoften less expensive than exposeddrives because it has fewer parts. There-fore less conveyor design time and partspurchasing costs. It is also much quickerand easier to install - certainly less thana quarter of the time taken to fit anexposed system.
Low maintenance costThe end user also benefits from the Rul-meca Motorized Pulley, because itrequires no maintenance other than therecommended oil change every 10,000operating hours and oil seal change
Features and Benefits of Rulmeca Motorized Pulleysevery 30,000 operating hours. In otherwords, almost 5 years between oilchanges based on an 8-hour/day work-ing week. Synthetic oil can be specifiedto extend the oil service life up to 30,000operating hours.
EfficiencyThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley usuallyhas a much higher efficiency from elec-trical motor to shell (Pulley face) thanexposed drives, because it has fewerfrictional losses. Therefore, efficienciesof up to 97% can be achieved.
CleanlinessBecause the Rulmeca Motorized Pulleyis hermetically sealed it cannot contami-nate any conveying materials such asfood, electrical components, plastics andother materials that must be kept per-fectly clean during handling.
Aesthetic appearanceIf installed correctly the Rulmeca Motor-ized Pulley always looks good. Due to itscompact size and smooth lines, theMotorized Pulley is out of sight, because itis hidden within the conveyor frame.
Thermal protectionAll three phase Rulmeca Motorized Pul-leys are protected by our thermal protec-tion switches. These heat-sensitiveswitches are built into the motor wind-ings to protect the motor from overheat-ing. The thermal protectors must be con-nected to a normally closed control cir-cuit in order to protect the motor.
Weight saving and distributionThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is oftenlighter than exposed drives. It is possi-ble to reduce the weight and cost of theconveyor structure, because the convey-
or drive weight is evenly distributed with-in the conveyor frame.
Variable frequency drive All Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys with 3phase motors are easily controlled byvariable frequency drives working in the12 Hz to 66 Hz frequency range. SeeTechnical Precautions in the catalogue.
Fewer parts A Rulmeca Motorized Pulley consists ofthe Motorized Pulley and two fixingbrackets! Exposed drives can require upto eight or more separate components,most of which have to be purchasedfrom different suppliers or custom manu-factured.
Low noiseThanks to the totally sealed enclosureand high quality gears the RulmecaMotorized Pulley runs almost at a whis-per – a very important fact in today’smodern factory environments.
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley – theideal drive unit for conveyors “Fit itand forget it!”

The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley was firstproduced in 1953 specifically for use onconveyor belt applications.
Until recently it was known as the JOKIMotorized Pulley or JOKI drum motor.
The objective was to produce a compact,hermetically sealed, highly efficient con-veyor drive unit that would be unaffectedby dust, water, oil, grease or other harm-ful substances. A Motorized Pulley thatwould be quick and simple to install andrequire virtually no maintenance.
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley achievedthis objective and today is considered tobe one of the most reliable, effective andsafe conveyor drive systems availablethroughout the world.
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is a high-ly efficient geared motor drive, which ishermetically sealed within a steel cylin-drical shell.
The shell, which is normally crowned toensure belt tracking, is fitted with bearinghousings incorporating precision bear-ings and double lipped oils seals androtates on a pair of fixed shafts.
The motor stator is fixed to the shaftsand the motor winding cables passthrough one of the shafts, eliminating theneed for slip rings and brushes.
General DescriptionThe squirrel cage induction motor, man-ufactured in steel laminate, is machinedconcentric to high tolerances anddesigned to give 200% starting torque for3 phase versions.
The rotor pinion is coupled directly to thegearbox.
The gearbox transmits torque to the shellthrough a geared rim and allows very lit-tle frictional torque loss.
The Motorized Pulley is filled with oil,which acts as a lubricant and coolant.Heat is dissipated through the shell andconveyor belt.
All vital parts are CNC machined.
The Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is sup-plied as standard with:• Machined mild steel crowned shell.• Electric motor manufactured in accor-
dance with IEC 34-1 (EN60034-1),(VDE 0530).
• Class F insulation according to IEC 34-1 (EN60034-1), (VDE 0530).
• Most international voltages. • Standard voltages supplied with +/-
10% tolerance in accordance with IEC38.
• Factory oil filled and tested.• Degree of protect ion IP66/67
(EN60034-5).
Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys are manu-factured according to the Council Direc-tives of the European Communities.
The CE-marking is according to Direc-tive 73/23/EEC relating to electricalequipment and according to Directive89/336EEC relating to electrical magnet-ic compatibility and amendments.

Head Pulley Drive (Above Horizontal Mounting Surface)Typical “head pulley drive position” on sinter conveyor at Chicago area steelmill. Two bolts secure each mounting bracket to top of the horizontal struc-tural surface. This model 630M (24.8” diameter) 30 HP Motorized Pulleydrives the 48” wide belt at 384 FPM. Note that two cables enter terminal boxthrough separate fittings. Power cable connects pulley’s motor to460V/3ph/60 Hz plant supply and control cable connects pulley’s internalthermal protection switches to 115V/1ph/60 Hz normally-closed control cir-cuit. Note that this 2,000 lb Motorized Pulley is fitted with lifting lugs. Photoalso shows jacking screw used to facilitate pulley alignment.
Technical Precaution: Always mount motorized pulley with “UP” directionoriented according to installation instructions (see page 82.)
Center Pulley Drive (On Fixed Vertical Mounting Surface)Photo shows one of two 150 HP Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys in “center driveposition” on two mile long overland conveyor at Lafarge’s Mountsorrel Quar-ry. Transferring granite on the 48” wide belt at various rates up to 2,000TPH, the two Motorized Pulleys are driven by synchronized ABB variablefrequency drives. Two bolts (with locking nuts) secure each mounting brack-et to side of the vertical structural surface. The two drives are mountedbeneath the conveyor belt, 50 feet apart and have an automatic belt take-upsystem operating between them. The Motorized Pulley’s compactness sim-plified the 2006 system upgrade.
Tail Pulley Drive (On Movable Vertical Mounting Surface)TAKRAF mobile crusher uses model 630M 50 HP Rulmeca Motorized Pul-ley in “tail drive position” to move limestone on 100 foot long cantilevereddischarge conveyor at German limestone quarry. Choosing tail rather thanhead drive position enabled designers to avoid suspending the 2,000 lb con-veyor drive unit at the tip of the cantilever. Compact Motorized Pulley easi-ly fit within the expanding bracket-type jacking screw belt take-up.
Technical Precaution: When mounting a motorized pulley in a screw take-up always make sure that pulley centerline is perpendicular to belt center-line to avoid overstressing internal bearings. Also make sure to provide a“festoon loop” in the power cord so that Motorized Pulley will have enoughtravel distance to accommodate normal belt stretch.
Center Pulley Drive (Below Horizontal Mounting Surface)Located in “center drive position” beneath bucket wheel reclaimer boomconveyor at Lake Superior taconite ship loading facility, model 800H 120 HPMotorized Pulley drives boom conveyor belt at 768 FPM. Two bolts (withlocking nuts) secure each mounting bracket to bottom of the horizontalstructural surface. Note two jib keys used to transfer drive torque from shaftto mounting bracket. The 54” wide boom conveyor transfers taconite pelletsfrom boom tip receiving chute to the cantilevered tail conveyor.
Technical Precaution: Always mount motorized pulleys so that 100% of beltforce presses against shoulder or base of mounting brackets (see page 82-83.)

Motorized PulleysDual Drive Concept
Bucket Wheel Reclaimer for taconite pelletsLocated in “center drive position” beneath a 4,000 TPH bucket wheelreclaimer tail conveyor at Lake Superior taconite ship loading facility, twomodel 800H 120 HP Motorized Pulleys drive discharge belt at 768 FPM.Since the 2004 reclaimer upgrade, each Motorized Pulley is powered by460V/3ph/60 Hz directly by the on-board diesel electric generator. Motorsynchronization was not necessary on either this reclaimer or its two sistermachines at the terminal.
Technical Precaution: Always mount motorized pulley with “UP” directionoriented according to installation instructions.
Suspended Construction Conveyor for wet concreteOne of four 150 foot long “dual drive” conveyors suspended from construc-tion cranes to pour wet concrete during Sesam River Dam construction inSoutheast Asia. During the five year project each conveyor was driven atthe head and tail by a model 800H 50 HP Rulmeca Motorized Pulley.
Overland Conveyor for graniteOne of two 150 HP Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys on two mile long overlandconveyor at Lafarge’s Mountsorrel Quarry in “center drive position.” The twoMotorized Pulleys are driven by synchronized ABB variable frequencydrives (VFDs), transferring granite on the 48” wide belt at various rates upto 2,000 TPH. The VFDs: (1.) provide a “soft start” feature, (2.) enable thetwo drives to “talk” and keep rotor speeds synchronized, and (3.) conservepower by linking to load sensors and optimizing belt speed according tomeasured conveyor throughput.
Technical Precaution: When using a VFD always restrict frequencies tobetween 12 Hz to 66 Hz and install a filter on the VFD output if it is locatedmore than 30 feet from the Motorized Pulley (see page 86.)
Reversing Shuttle Conveyor for crushed graniteOne of two 31.5” diameter 50 HP Motorized Pulleys, one on north end andone on south end, driving reversing shuttle conveyor at Lafarge’s Mountsor-rel granite quarry since 1998. Photo shows stone discharging from 600FPM belt at 2,500 TPH. Changing from a “single drive” to a “dual drive”arrangement can reduce slack-side belt tension (T2) to 20%. This willreduce maximum belt tension (T1) and can significantly extend conveyor beltlife because it provides 360 degrees of belt wrap around pulleys (180degrees per Motorized Pulley), without the use of “dirty side” snub pulleys.
Technical Precaution: When using Motorized Pulleys in reversing applica-tion, always bring conveyor to complete stop before starting belt in oppositedirection (see page 84-85.)

Motorized Pulley 165E, Ø 6.49 in. (165 mm) 60 Hz
1 Use “nominal belt speed” to specify pulley. “Actual belt speed” is presented (for pulley lagged with 1/8” thick rubber) to assist with process design calculations.See Technical Precautions page 77. Note that “actual belt speed” decreases when lagging is not used due to decreased pulley diameter.
2 Belt pull value allows for gearbox loss.3 Pulley must not be subjected to radial load exceeding “Maximum radial load” defined above. See “Belt Tension” section in Technical Precautions, page 78.4 Additional Motorized Pulley and Idler Pulley weight, specified per inch of Roller Length:
31.50”< RL < 45.28” Wt = 1.5 lbs/in45.28”< RL < 64.96” Wt = 2.1 lbs/in64.96”< RL < 70.87” Wt = 2.9 lbs/in
5 All weights shown above are for pulleys with 1/8” thick rubber lagging. To calculate unlagged pulley weight subtract 0.1 lbs/in of Roller Length from above.

Motorized Pulley 220M & 220H, Ø 8.50 in. (216 mm)Our 8.50” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers two differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to note the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 8.50” diameter model is notstrong enough to resist estimatedbelt tension, then select 12.64”diameter model.
M for Medium dutyThe internal parts of 220M aredesigned to match irregular workingconditions in applications such asmobile crushing & screening, cement& concrete plants, mobile conveyorsand open stone & gravel pits.
H for Heavy dutyA reinforced 3-stage-gearboxprovides 220H with the necessarystrength needed for low speeds andhigh torque. 220H is popular in re-cycling (hand sorter conveyors),bunker discharge conveyors andwhere a combination of slow speedand high torque is required.

Triple Cross BeltsThree 12.64” diameter 5.5 HP motorized pulleys simplify design, installation,and maintenance of cross belt drives in this mobile double screen plant inSpokane, Washington. Mobile screen plant designers frequently use motor-ized pulleys to drive cross belts because of the severe space restrictions inthe drive nest.
Double Triple Cross BeltsThis Canadian mobile screen features four 12.64” diameter 5.5 HP and two12.64” diameter 3 HP cross belt drives. Note the absence of separate motorand gearbox mounting platforms and expanded metal guarding—all elimi-nated through the use of motorized pulleys. Photo taken in Ontario lime-stone quarry in 1994.
Glass Recycling ConveyorThe 12.64” diameter 5.5 HP motorized pulley used at this cullet conveyortransfer point minimizes space requirements. It also offers increased drivereliability (due to its hermetic seals) in the highly abrasive atmosphere.Photo was taken at the Raleigh, North Carolina glass recycling center in1994.
Technical Precaution: When using optional regreasable seals on motorizedpulleys in abrasive applications periodically purge grease through seals toprevent grit-laden grease from causing premature oil seal wear.
Self-cleaning Magnetic SeparatorA 12.64” diameter 4 HP motorized pulley drives cleated belt surroundingelectromagnet on portable crushing/screening system at this Louisiana C &D debris recycling facility. Also in service in Europe, this Austrian-designedrig also features motorized pulleys on screen feed, cross belts, and dis-charge belts.
Technical Precaution: When using electromagnets near motorized pulleysalways direct magnetic flux away from motorized pulley so that flux fielddoes not interfere with motor. It is NOT necessary to use stainless steel pul-ley shells in these applications.

Motorized Pulley 320L, 320M & 320H, Ø 12.64 in. (321 mm)Our 12.64” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers three differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- L for Light duty- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to note the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 12.64” diameter model is notstrong enough to resist estimatedbelt tension, then select 15.91”diameter model.
L for Light duty320L is designed for regular andcontinuous operating conditions. It isadvisable to rubber lag these pulleysto grip the belt and limit belt tension.Typical applications are portableconveyors and cross belts in mobilecrushing and screening equipment.320L should not be used for lowspeed high torque feeder conveyors.320L uses motor and gearbox from220M.
M for Medium dutyThe internal parts of 320M aredesigned for tough and irregularoperating conditions (e.g. crushing &screening applications, asphalt,cement, and concrete plants.)
H for Heavy dutyA solid 3-stage gearbox, largershafts, and stronger bearings enablethe 320H to provide low speed athigh torque and handle irregularloadings in harsh operatingconditions.

1 Use “nominal belt speed” to specify pulley. “Actual belt speed” is presented (for pulley lagged with 1/4” thick rubber) to assist with process design calculations.See Technical Precautions page 77. Note that “actual belt speed” decreases when lagging is not used due to decreased pulley diameter.
2 Belt pull value allows for gearbox loss.3 Pulley must not be subjected to radial load exceeding “Maximum radial load” defined above. See “Belt Tension” section in Technical Precautions, page 78.4 Additional Motorized Pulley and Idler Pulley weight, specified per Roller Length: 31.50”< RL < 62.99” Wt = 6.1 lbs/in; 62.99”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 11.7 lbs/in5 All weights shown above are for pulleys with 1/4” thick lagging. To calculate unlagged pulley weight subtract 0.5 lbs/in of Roller Length from above.

Taconite Ship Loading Terminal (Michigan—USA)DEMAG crawler-mounted bucket wheel reclaimer handles taconite pellets at5,000 TPH on 72” wide boom and tail belts at this Escanaba, Michigan facil-ity. Terminal operator replaced both original Kufnagel conveyor drives with40” diameter Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys in 1985 after 13 years of service.Photo shows tail-mounted 200 HP drive pulley for discharge conveyor.
Marl Pit at Cement Plant (South Carolina—USA)FAM delivered this crawler-mounted bucket wheel reclaimer in 2002 toexcavate marl from a pit adjacent to the producer’s cement plant nearCharleston, South Carolina. It uses tail-mounted 31.5” diameter 100 HPMotorized Pulleys to drive the 54” wide boom and tail conveyor belts at 600fpm. Externally mounted brakes prevent material from “rolling backwards”when conveyors are stopped because both conveyors can articulate to a 16ºmaximum inclination.
Granite Quarry (Connecticut—USA)Built in 2003 by RR Equipment, this mobile recirculating crushing andscreening rig uses a tail-mounted 15 HP 15.75” diameter Motorized Pulleyto drive the 36” wide 300 TPH 58’ long screen feed conveyor. Note that useof slender “Telescoping” mechanical belt take-up allows compact and light-weight structure. This plant adheres to the maximum US highway clearancerequirements of 12’-0” wide by 13’-6” high.
Technical Precaution: When mounting a motorized pulley in a screw take-up always make sure that pulley centerline is perpendicular to belt center-line to avoid overstressing internal bearings.
Trap Rock Quarry (New York—USA)Allis Mineral Systems delivered this 850 TPH recirculating crushing andscreening plant in 1994. The tail-mounted 15.75” diameter 15 HP MotorizedPulley drives the 36” wide screen feed belt, in tandem with an identicalhead-mounted drive, at 384 fpm. Motorized Pulleys enabled designers toadhere to the 12’ maximum allowable US highway clearance width. Taildrive is mounted in a “Sliding Pedestal” mechanical belt take-up.
Technical Precaution: When mounting a motorized pulley in a screw take-up always make sure that pulley centerline is perpendicular to belt center-line to avoid overstressing internal bearings.

Motorized Pulley 400L, 400M & 400H, Ø 15.91 in. (404 mm)Our 15.91” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers three differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- L for Light duty- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to note the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 15.91” diameter model is notstrong enough to resist estimatedbelt tension, then select 19.72”diameter model.
L for Light duty400L is designed for regular andcontinuous operating conditions. Itis advisable to rubber lag thesepulleys to grip the belt and limit belttension. A popular application is self-cleaning magnetic separators. 400Luses motor and gearbox from 320M.
M for Medium duty400M is designed for tough andirregular operating conditions. 400Mis typically used in heavy mobilecrushing & screening applications aswell as in crushed stone, ore,cement, steel, and fertilizer handling.
H for Heavy dutyA solid 3-stage gearbox enables the400H to provide low speed at hightorque and handle irregular loadingsin harsh operating conditions.

Limestone Quarry (Georgia—USA)Two 15.75” diameter 5.5 HP Motorized Pulleys were installed 1994 to auto-matically “choke feed” tertiary gyratory crushers, working in combinationwith variable frequency drives (VFD) and ultrasonic sensors. Each pulleydrives a 36” wide belt at a maximum speed of 120 FPM to transfer 4” minusproduct at 425 TPH.
Technical Precaution: When driving motorized pulley with VFD on 460 volt3 phase 60 Hz power supply, always restrict frequencies to allowable fre-quency spectrum of 12 to 66 Hz to avoid torque loss and heat build-up. Fil-ter VFD output if VFD is more than 30’ from motorized pulley to avoid reso-nance-induced voltage spikes.
Taconite Processing Plant (Minnesota—USA)Two limestone feeder belt drives beneath storage silo were converted from20-year-old DC motors to AC-powered motorized pulleys in 1995. An ABBVFD drives each 19.72” diameter 5.5 HP motorized pulley to a maximum of120 FPM. Conversion enabled plant operator to eliminate exposed motorsand gearboxes and replace SCRs, relays, and timer banks with VFDs incontrol panel.
Technical Precaution: When driving motorized pulley with VFD on 460 volt3 phase 60 Hz power supply, always restrict frequencies to allowable fre-quency spectrum of 12 to 66 Hz to avoid torque loss and heat build-up. Fil-ter VFD output if VFD is more than 30’ from motorized pulley to avoid reso-nance-induced voltage spikes.
Electric Power Plant (Connecticut—USA)Designed and built in 1989 by ABB, this refuse derived fuel (RDF) plant usestwo 12’ diameter trommels to separate light burnable trash from landfillmaterial. A 24.80” diameter 30 HP Motorized Pulley drives each steeplyinclined trommel feed conveyor at 300 FPM. Each 100’ long 48” wide feedbelt is fitted with cleats and sidewalls to elevate 250 TPH of refuse at 45ºinclination.
Technical Precaution: When using motorized pulley to drive a single direc-tion belt on an incline use built-in mechanical backstop to prevent materialfrom rolling downhill when belt stops.
Foundry for Railroad Truck Castings (Ohio—USA)Installed at first American Steel Foundries (now Alliance Castings Company)plant in 1980, this 15.75” diameter 10 HP motorized pulley transfers recy-cled foundry sand to mold area at 150 TPH. Conveyor makes 30 start/stopsper hour. Ambient environment is hot (>104º F) and contains a high per-centage of airborne abrasive particulate. Photo taken in 1993, after 13years of service.
Technical Precaution: When installing motorized pulley in hot environment(>104º F), specify optional Class H motor windings and synthetic oil. Con-tact Rulmeca if ambient temperature will exceed 120º F.

Motorized Pulley 500L, 500M & 500H, Ø 19.72 in. (501 mm)Our 19.72” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers three differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- L for Light duty- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to notice the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 19.72” diameter model is notstrong enough to resist estimatedbelt tension, then select 24.80”diameter model.
L for Light duty500L is designed for tough andirregular operating conditions. 500Lis typically used in heavy mobilecrushing & screening applications aswell as in crushed stone, ore, cement,steel, and fertilizer handling. 500Luses motor and gearbox from 400M.Note that 500L outer dimensions donot match 500H (Former modelsTM500 and TM501).
M for Medium dutyA solid 3-stage gearbox enables the500M to provide low speed at hightorque and handle irregular loadingsin harsh operating conditions. 500Muses motor and gearbox from 400H.Note that 500M outer dimensions donot match 500H (Former modelsTM500 and TM501).H for Heavy duty500H has strongest internalcomponents in this diameter withgearbox, shaft, and bearingsdesigned for tough, irregular, andextreme operating conditions.

1 Use “nominal belt speed” to specify pulley. “Actual belt speed” is presented (for pulley lagged with 3/8” thick rubber) to assist with process design calculations.See Technical Precautions page 77. Note that “actual belt speed” decreases when lagging is not used due to decreased pulley diameter.
2 Belt pull value allows for gearbox loss.3 Pulley must not be subjected to radial load exceeding “Maximum radial load” defined above. See “Belt Tension” section in Technical Precautions, page 78.4 Additional Motorized Pulley weight, specified per Roller Length: 39.37”< RL < 78.749” Wt = 8.7 lbs/in. Pulley weight: 39.37”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 7.6 lbs/in.5 All weights shown above are for pulleys “fully lagged” with 3/8” thick rubber. To calculate unlagged pulley weight subtract 0.9 lbs/in of Roller Length from above.*

FAM Excavator (Marl Pit in South Carolina—USA)FAM designed and built this 1,000 TPH excavator for an internationalcement producer in 2002. The 50’ long boom conveyor and 100’ long dis-charge conveyor each use a 31.5” diameter 100 HP Motorized Pulley todrive a 54” wide belt at 600 FPM. FAM has been using Rulmeca MotorizedPulleys as excavator belt drives for more than 30 years. Photo was takenduring machine commissioning.
Technical Precaution: When using a motorized pulley on an articulatingconveyor that inclines up and down use a brake to prevent material fromrolling “downhill” when conveyor stops. External brake shaft option is avail-able from Rulmeca.
Mechanical Excavator Reclaimer (Allouez Dock—Superior, Wisconsin)Photo shows one of three 40 year old bucket wheel reclaimers upgraded atrail to ship transfer facility by BNSF. In 2004 tandem 120 HP RulmecaMotorized Pulleys (in a “Nested Dual Drive”) replaced original 200 HP tailconveyor drive and a single 120 HP Motorized Pulley replaced originalboom conveyor drive on machine shown. Only minor structural modifica-tions were required. On-board diesel engines were also replaced duringupgrade to provide 460V/3ph/60 Hz power supply to Motorized Pulleys.Each of three bucket wheel reclaimers now handles 4,000 TPH of taconitepellets on 54” wide belts at a speed of 768 FPM.
Technical Precaution: When using labyrinth seals periodically purge greasethrough seals to prevent grease-born grit from attacking rubber oil seals.
DEMAG Reclaimer (Taconite Ship Loading Terminal in Michigan—USA)Demag designed and built this 5,000 TPH reclaimer in 1967. Terminal oper-ator replaced original motorized pulleys with 40” diameter Rulmeca Motor-ized Pulleys in 1985. A 150 HP Motorized Pulley drives the 60’ long 72” wideboom belt at 600 FPM. A 200 HP motorized pulley drives the 75’ long 72”wide discharge conveyor at 600 FPM. Since the 1985 conversion RulmecaMotorized Pulleys have moved more than 150 million tons of taconite pelletsthrough the reclaimer.
Technical Note: Rulmeca supplies parts and service for 40” diameter Motor-ized Pulleys up to 200 HP. However, the current portfolio does not includethis model. Research and development aimed at producing Motorized Pul-leys more powerful than 180 HP is currently underway.
German Reclaimer (Taconite Mine in Vitoria—Brazil)Brazilian taconite processing plant operator replaced the 1963-vintagemotorized pulleys on boom and discharge conveyor belts with new Rulme-ca 31.5” diameter 100 HP Motorized Pulleys in 2001. Because of the abra-sive nature of taconite ore dust, the operator used labyrinth seal option tomaximize oil seal life.
Technical Precaution: When using labyrinth seals periodically purge greasethrough seals to prevent grease-born grit from attacking rubber oil seals.

Motorized Pulley 630M & 630H, Ø 24.80 in. (630 mm)Our 24.80” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers two differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to note the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 24.80” diameter model is notstrong enough to resist estimatedbelt tension, then select 31.50”diameter model.
M for Medium dutyA solid 2-stage gearbox enables the630M to handle irregular loadings inharsh operating conditions. 630Muses motor and gearbox from 500H.Note that 630M outer dimensions donot match 630HH for Heavy duty630H has stronger internalcomponents with gearbox, shaft, andbearings designed for tough,irregular, and extreme operatingconditions.

Our 31.50” diameter Motorized Pulleyrange offers two differentperformance levels for BULKapplications:
- M for Medium duty- H for Heavy duty
It is important to note the productdifferences and choose theappropriate pulley based onestimated belt tension (radial load.)See page 78. The actual radial loadmust be less than the maximumallowable radial load shown in thiscatalog.
Be aware of increased belt tensions required to drive multi-plythick heavy belts and/or larger beltwidths.
If the 800M is not strong enough toresist estimated belt tension, thenselect 800H.
M for Medium dutyA solid 2-stage gearbox enables the800M to handle irregular loadings inharsh operating conditions. 800Muses motor and gearbox from 630H.Note that 800M outer dimensions donot match 800HH for Heavy duty800H has stronger internalcomponents with gearbox, shaft, andbearings designed for tough,irregular, and extreme operatingconditions.

1 Use “nominal belt speed” to specify pulley. “Actual belt speed” is presented (for pulley lagged with 3/8” thick rubber) to assist with process design calculations.See Technical Precautions page 77. Note that “actual belt speed” decreases when lagging is not used due to decreased pulley diameter.
2 Belt pull value allows for gearbox loss.3 Pulley must not be subjected to radial load exceeding “Maximum radial load” defined above. See “Belt Tension” section in Technical Precautions, page 78.4 Additional Motorized Pulley weight: Model 800M: 53.15”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 16.1 lbs/in; Model 800H & 800HD: 66.93”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 31.5 lbs/in.
Additional Idler Pulley weight: Model UT630M: 53.15”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 11.2 lbs/in; Model UT630H: 66.93”< RL < 78.74” Wt = 18.0 lbs/in.5 All weights shown above are for pulleys “fully lagged” with 3/8” thick rubber. For “partially lagged” model 800M pulleys add 5% to 8% (for 800H pulleys add 3%
to 4%) to the weights shown above. See page 80 for “partial lagging.” To calculate unlagged pulley weight subtract 0.9 lbs/in of Roller Length from above.

Motorized PulleysMechanical Backstops
Sand and Gravel Pit (Texas—USA)Installed in 1994 this 12.64” diameter 7.5 HP Motorized Pulley drives the 24”wide inclined “overs belt” at 300 FPM. This conveyor stacks large unusablerocks scalped from the product stream by the primary screen at the activeface in the pit. The Motorized Pulley’s built-in mechanical backstop protectspersonnel and equipment from product “roll back” when it is necessary tostop a fully loaded belt.
Technical Precaution: It is essential that the identity of each of the three phas-es of the power supply be determined before attaching power supply wires tothe pulley to prevent the motor from driving against the backstop. The identi-ty of each of the three phases of the motor is clearly labeled.
Granite Quarry (Virginia—USA)A 20 HP 15.75” diameter Motorized Pulley elevates crushed rock 25 feet at384 FPM on the 30” wide fixed transfer conveyor at this plant (center ofphoto.) A “clockwise backstop” prevents run back of the loaded belt beltwhen power supply is off.
Technical Precaution: Direction of proper pulley rotation is indicated by analuminum arrow or plastic sticker fastened to the end housing on the terminalbox (or power cord) side of the pulley. Clockwise and counterclockwise back-stops are available. Pulley rotation is specified from the point of view of aperson looking at the pulley from the terminal box (or power cord) side of thepulley. Rotation direction is to be specified when placing order
Mechanical Backstop and Rear Flange DesignDrawing shows Motorized Pulley mechanical backstop (for models 400M -500M) keyed to motor rotor shaft and bolted to motor stator frame. Note thatmechanical backstop option requires an extended rear flange (and largerminimum Roller Length) for certain models.
Models 138E - 320L use a one-way motor rotor bearing in a standard motorstator and do not require an extended rear flange. Models 320M - 500M adda backstop to the stator within an extended rear flange, as shown. Models500H - 800H add a backstop to the stator within a standard rear flange.
Mechanical Backstop Exploded ViewRulmeca’s mechanical backstops are built into the Motorized Pulley to limitpulley rotation to one direction (either clockwise or counterclockwise.) Thebackstop’s keyed inner race is fixed to the motor rotor and the outer race isbolted to the motor stator frame.
Fixing the backstop to the motor rotor shaft, on the input side of the internalgearbox, yields two advantages: (1.) the backstop has all of the mechanicaladvantage, which can be as high as 100:1, and (2.) it is protected in a her-metically sealed environment. On the other hand, an exposed backstopcoupled to a live pulley shaft has no mechanical advantage (and must bemuch larger) and is exposed to the environment.

Marl Pit at Cement Plant (South Carolina—USA)Installed by FAM in 2002, this crawler-mounted bucket wheel machine exca-vates marl at a rate of 1,000 TPH. It uses tail-mounted 31.5” diameter 100HP Motorized Pulleys to drive the 54” wide boom and tail conveyor belts at600 fpm. FAM specified Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys with “external brakeshaft option” because both conveyors can articulate +/- 16º and mechanicalbackstops could not be used..” Externally mounted brakes (by others) pre-vent material from “rolling backwards”when conveyors are stopped.
Technical Precaution: Control circuit must be designed so that motor andbrake never work against each other. Brake should never be clamped shutwhen motor is on except for “emergency stop.” Motor should never be pow-ered on (including “jog” command) when the brake is clamped shut.
Rulmeca Internal BrakeRulmeca internal brake is designed to function primarily as a belt holdingdevice for reversing and/or articulating conveyors. The brake is not intend-ed to be a conveyor stopping device. The brake’s keyed spline is fixed tothe motor rotor and the brake’s housing is bolted to the motor stator frame.
Fixing the brake to the motor rotor shaft, on the input side of the internalgearbox, yields two advantages: (1.) the brake has all of the mechanicaladvantage, which can be as high as 100:1, and (2.) it is protected in a her-metically sealed environment.
Rulmeca Internal Brake/Motor/Gearbox AssemblySpring-loaded electromagnetic brakes are designed to release when power isapplied to the brake coil. This is a “fail safe” feature. They clamp shut whenbrake power is removed (either during normal operation or during an emer-gency loss of overall system power.) Photo shows 320H model. Note that thisoption requires additional internal space and larger minimum Roller Length.
Technical Precaution: Control circuit for motor and brake must be designed tostop pulley motor before brake clamps shut and start pulley motor after brakeis released. Brakes are DC-powered and supplied with AC to DC rectifiers tobe mounted in a remote panel (by others). Control circuit must be designedto kill motor power in the event of loss of brake power. If this provision is notmade, motor can possibly “power through” clamped brake.
Example of External Brake (South Carolina—USA)Available in models 500H and larger, Rulmeca external brake shaft optionextends motor rotor shaft through hole in non-rotating pulley shaft for attach-ment of external brake (by others.) This hydraulically-actuated double-shoebrake (protective cover removed for photograph) prevents conveyor rollback when fully loaded belt is stopped.
The external brake option provides one of the two key advantages availablewith the internal brake option. Brake has all of the mechanical advantage ofthe drive (as high as 100:1 ratio) because it is fixed directly to the motor rotorshaft. It is, however, exposed to the environment.

Non-belt ApplicationsSpecial Motorized Pulley designs areavailable for “non-belt, V-belt, partialbelt, and modular belt” applications. It isessential that each special applicationbe designed to adequately dissipateheat from the pulley surface. ContactRulmeca for assistance with these appli-cations. See pages 77, 78, & 83.
Non-horizontal Mounting (i.e.between 5° - 90° and Vertical)
Certain applications (e.g. self-cleaningelectromagnet for tramp iron, picturedabove, “tilted” package sortation convey-ors, and “travelling wall”) require pulleyshaft to be mounted out of the horizontalplane. This Motorized Pulley optionrequires extra oil, grease packed topbearing, and special electrical termina-tion. Contact Rulmeca for assistance.see pages 82, 83, and 91.

Environments with high amounts oil,grease, and/or fat require special oil-resistant lagging. If they require frequenthigh pressure and/or chemical cleaningthey may also require regreasable sealsand stainless steel or special surfacecoating. See pages 80, 84, & 85.
Reversible ConveyorsAll standard three-phase Rulmeca Motor-ized Pulleys are suitable for use in revers-ing conveyors. However, motor controlcircuit must be designed to bring pulley toa complete stop before reversing direc-tion. See pages 84 & 85.
Starting Under LoadAll Rulmeca Motorized Pulley motors are“Design C” and developed for direct start-ing. They provide 200% start-up torquewhen started directly. To reduce inrush(start-up) current it is possible to usestarting device such as soft starter or vari-able frequency drive. Note that thesedevices typically reduce start-up torque to150% of running torque. See pages 81 &86.
Underground Tunneling & Min-ing Applications
Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys have beenincorporated into Tunnel BoringMachines (pictured above) for years.However, they are not “intrinsically safe”or “flame proof” and are not suitable forservice where explosive gasses, vapors,liquids, or dust are continuously present.Contact Rulmeca for additional details.
Underwater applicationsThe Rulmeca Motorized Pulley IP67 seal-ing system has been successfully testedfor 30 minutes under 1 m of water. How-ever, the motor is not intended for contin-uous underwater service.

Low Ambient TemperatureRulmeca Motorized Pulleys with standardmotor and oil are suitable for use in aminimum ambient temperature of -13°F.Optional food grade oil lowers the pulleyoperating temperature range to a mini-mum of -22°F. Contact Rulmeca for loweroperating temperatures. Special oil, spe-cial seals, and internal anti-condensationheater may be required. See pages 77,78, & 91.
Marine Environment
Corrosive ocean environment oftenrequires regreasable sealing system,stainless steel or special surface finish.See pages 83 - 85.
Noise-Sensitive Environments
In noise-sensitive areas (e.g. locationswhere public access to conveyors is per-mitted) certain Motorized Pulley designrestrictions apply. Contact Rulmeca forspecial oil viscosities and quantities, spe-cially balanced pulleys, and when toavoid the use of 2 pole motors.

IntroductionDesigners should use the following engi-neering principles in selecting the optimalbelt conveyor drive for bulk handlingapplications. Refer to the latest edition of“Belt Conveyors for Bulk Materials,” pub-lished by the Conveyor Equipment Manu-facturers Association (CEMA) for a com-prehensive design guide.
Design ParametersDetermine desired design parameters:• product flow rate (Q)• belt speed (V)• belt width (w)• conveyor length (L)• product size• lift height (H)• type & thickness of belt• type of belt support
Make the following control choices:• continuous or intermittent flow• fixed or variable belt speed• conveyor duty cycle• extremes of process flow• ambient environment extremes• applicable safety requirements
Optimize Belt Speed & BeltWidthSelect Belt Width:• with bulk density & belt speed fixed,
select width to yield product flow rate,not exceeding CEMA “standard edgedistance”
• width must be > 3x max lump for 20 o
surcharge and > 6x max lump for 30 o
surcharge • width must be wide enough to prevent
loading chute and skirtboard jamming(i.e. > 3x to 5x max lump)
Select Belt Speed:• with bulk density & width fixed, select
speed to yield product flow rate, notexceeding CEMA “standard edge dis-tance”
• for dusty material, select speed to min-imize fugitive emissions
• for heavy sharp material, select speedto protect belt and chute lining
Calculate Power to Drive BeltCEMA has empirically developed a vari-ety of factors to simply the determinationof belt pull. Some of these factorsinclude: idler roller bearing friction (Kx,)belt and load flexure resistance (Ky,) andskirtboard friction (Tsb.) To determinerequired HP calculate required belt pull atspecified belt speed as follows:• with belt width and speed fixed, select
conveyor components and calculatebelt tension (Te) required to overcomegravity, friction, and momentum using:Te = LKt (Kx + KyWb + 0.015Wb) + Wm (LKy + H) + Tp + Tam + Tac
• calculate power required to drive beltusing:HP = (TeV) / 33,000

Select Drive & Check GeometryFinally, select conveyor drive and checkdesign using final parameters as follows:• select Motorized Pulley to match
design belt speed and required HP• check selected pulley diameter verify-
ing that wrap factor and belt life areacceptable
• recalculate required belt pull and HPusing selected “actual belt speed”
• check material cross section on beltverifying that edge distance is accept-able
• check material trajectory verifying thattransfer chute will not plug and materi-al will drop at desired location

Special Loading ConditionsCertain loading are beyond the scope ofthe 5th Edition of the CEMA manual.
These include:• hopper feeder conveyors• slider bed conveyor supports• cleated and/or sidewall beltGo to www.rulmecacorp.com for free“downloadable” conveyor design soft-ware incorporating HP calculations forthese special conditions.
ExamplesThe drawings below were generated byRulmeca design software and illustratehow the programs can help designersavoid errors.
Trajectory plot shows that slower beltspeed (solid line) will not plug chute whilefaster belt speed (dotted line) will. This isbecause trajectory of center of materialmass impacts against vertical chute wallabove horizontal centerline of pulley.
Plot shows that selected belt speed (dot-ted line) may cause material spillagebecause cross section exceeds CEMArecommendation (solid line.)

www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0777
1) Actual Belt Speed vs. Nominal Belt Speed: • Two key specifications for each Motorized Pulley are power (HP) and nominal belt speed, as shown on indi-
vidual specification pages in this catalog.• Nominal belt speed is a design target, providing consistent choices among all models and powers. For exam-
ple, a nominal belt speed of 300 fpm is available in most pulley models.• Actual full load belt speed is almost never exactly equal to nominal belt speed. • Actual belt speed is a function of the motor pole number, gear ratio, and load. Therefore, this catalog displays
actual full load belt speed at 60 Hz, as well as nominal belt speed, to assist designers who need more precisebelt speeds.
• Note that all belt speeds shown in this catalogue refer to unlagged pulleys because: 1. Belt speed for each model is a function of pulley diameter, 2. Pulleys are available with and without lagging, 3. Lagging changes the pulley diameter, and4. Various lagging thicknesses are available.
• Note that each Rulmeca Motorized Pulley for a three-phase power supply uses an asynchronous squirrelcage induction motor with approximately 5% slip. In a no load condition, motor RPM is nearly equal to “syn-chronous speed” RPM. The slip rate is dependent on power and design of the motor. Low powered motorshave a lower slip rate than high-powered motors. At full load, the motor RPM is approximately 5% less thansynchronous.
• The “actual belt speed” displayed in this catalogue is based on an unlagged pulley running at full load, nom-inal voltage (e.g. 460 volts) and 60Hz.
• The actual full load belt speed of a lagged pulley running at 1. Full load, 2. Nominal voltage (e.g. 460 volts), 3. 60 Hz – equals the actual full load belt speed specified in this catalogue, times the ratio of the lagged/unlagged pulley
diameters. Example: A 320M Motorized Pulley (with an unlagged pulley diameter of 12.64”) at 5.5 HP and nominal belt
speed of 150 fpm has an actual belt speed of 157 fpm at full load, nominal voltage, and 60 Hz. Ifthis pulley is supplied with 1/4” thick lagging, the lagged pulley’s actual belt speed equals 157 fpmx (13.14”/12.64”) = 163 fpm at full load, nominal voltage, and 60 Hz.
• The maximum no load belt speed of this lagged pulley is 5% higher than the full load belt speed (i.e. no loadbelt speed = 163 fpm x 1.05 = 171 fpm.
2) Aftermarket Service• Always contact your local authorized Rulmeca service center or distributor for aftermarket service.• Or contact Rulmeca at www.rulmecacorp.com
3) Ambient Temperature:• Motorized Pulleys are normally cooled by dissipating heat through contact between the surface of the pul-
ley and the conveyor belt. It is essential that each pulley have an adequate thermal gradient between the pul-ley’s motor stator and its ambient operating temperature.
• All Motorized Pulleys in this catalog are designed and tested under full load (without rubber lagging) for use ina max. ambient temperature of +104o F with standard Class F motor. Motorized Pulleys with Class H motorsand synthetic oil are suitable for use in a max. ambient temperature of 120o F.
• For example, a conveyor belt in a facility with an air temperature of +75o F, carrying processed material at atemperature of +130 oF, will have a Motorized Pulley “ambient temperature” that is significantly higherthan +75o F. In this example, the actual temperature of the bottom of the belt in the vicinity of the Motor-ized Pulley will be less than or equal to the material temperature, depending upon parameters such asconveyor length, belt thickness, and belt speed.
• For ambient operating conditions lower or higher than allowable ambient temperature (-22o F to 120o F), con-tact Rulmeca.
• It is possible to use specially designed Motorized Pulleys to perform tasks other than driving standard rubberconveyor belt (e.g. modular plastic belts and v-belts for Motorized Pulley types 138E & 165E.) Please contact
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0778
Rulmeca for such applications.• Operating Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys to drive standard conveyor belts outside of the allowable ambient tem-
perature range voids product warranty.
4) Belt Alignment:• Motorized Pulleys must be installed with pulley shaft perpendicular to belt centerline and parallel to all idler
rollers.• Belt centerline must be straight and parallel to side walls of slider bed (if any) and perpendicular to idler rollers
and all pulleys• Belt and/or roller misalignment may cause high friction and overload the conveyor belt drive motor.• Belt misalignment may cause premature wear of pulley lagging.
5) Belt Pull:• This catalog specifies “Actual Belt Pull” for each model, power, and speed of pulley. Note that the specified
actual belt pull allows for a motor and gearbox efficiency loss of 3 to 5%.• Always select the Motorized Pulley power by comparing calculated “Required Belt Pull (Te)” with “Actual Belt
Pull” as listed in this catalog and not simply on the basis of calculated power (HP).• Required Belt Pull is the sum of all forces required to convey material.
6) Belt Tension:• The conveyor belt should never be over-tensioned. It should only be installed with sufficient belt tension to
prevent belt slippage. • Anti-slip lagging should be used to keep the radial load as low as possible to drive the belt without slipping .• The maximum allowable radial load of each Motorized Pulley is specified in this catalog. Subjecting the Motor-
ized Pulley to a higher than specified maximum radial load may damage internal components and shortenproduct lifetime and, therefore, voids product warranty.
• To check pulley radial load, do a vector summation of the loads on the pulley.• For example, as shown in the diagram,
1. Radial load equals T1 + T2.2. T1, tight side tension, equals Belt Pull (Te) plus T2.3. T2, slack side tension, is determined using CEMA standard calculations or DIN 22101 to provide enough
friction between the pulley and the belt to drive the belt.• Belt type, belt thickness and minimum allowable pulley diameter must be selected according to Belt Supplier
Requirements.
7) Capacitors (for Single Phase Motors):• Each single phase Motorized Pulley requires an appropriate capacitor. For models 138E and 165E a “Run”
capacitor is supplied with the pulley. Detailed information is available upon request. Using other than thespecified Run capacitor may damage the motor and voids product warranty.
• The Run capacitor must be permanently connected to the motor, as shown in the connection diagrams.• Rulmeca single phase motors are “permanent split phase motors.” Each motor is supplied with two windings.
They are designed so that an appropriately sized capacitor connected to one of the windings will start themotor rotating.
• Starting torque is limited to 70% of full running torque.• It is possible to increase starting torque to 100% by adding a second appropriately sized capacitor (Start
capacitor) to the circuit. Note that this circuit must be designed to drop the starting capacitor out of the circuitafter the motor has reached its nominal speed. Contact Rulmeca for more information on how to run singlephase motors using Start and Run capacitors.
8) Clearance:• It is necessary to design conveyor frame and all chutes such that structure and/or product jamming against
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0779
the Motorized Pulley is avoided.• The “non-rotating shaft” feature of Motorized Pulleys offers a higher margin of safety than exposed drives with
rotating shafts However, Motorized Pulley end housings, lagging, or tube may be damaged if structure orproduct jams against pulley while it is rotating.
9) Electrical Installation:• The equipment manufacturer (OEM) must ensure that the Motorized Pulley is not put into operation before it
is – Correctly installed,– Correctly connected to the power supply,– Correctly protected.
• A specialist must perform the electrical connection of the Motorized Pulley in accordance with electrical regu-lations. If in doubt, contact Rulmeca.
• A wiring diagram is always supplied with the Motorized Pulley. Always refer to the connection instructions andensure that the motor power and control circuits are properly connected.
• A wiring diagram is inserted into the terminal box and into the booklet accompanying each Motorized Pulley. • Standard Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys are delivered with clockwise rotation when viewed from the terminal
box end of the Motorized Pulley.• Always refer to the connection instructions and ensure that the motor is connected as required to the cor-
rect power supply.• Connect system ground wire to grounding screw located in the terminal box.• When using cable options the green/yellow wire must be connected to the system ground wire.
10) Electromagnetic Brake:• The spring-loaded electromagnetic brake is intended for use as a conveyor belt holding device and not a con-
veyor belt stopping device.• The control circuit for the Motorized Pulley motor and brake must be designed to stop the pulley motor before
brake clamps shut and start the pulley motor after the brake is released.• Spring-loaded electromagnetic brakes are designed to release when power is applied to the brake coil. This
is a “fail safe” feature. They clamp shut when brake power is removed (either during normal operation or dur-ing an emergency loss of overall system power.)
• Control circuit must be designed so that motor and brake never work against each other. The brake shouldnever be clamped shut when the motor is on except for “emergency stop” condition. The motor should neverbe powered on (including “jog” command) when the brake is clamped shut.
• Electromagnetic brakes are DC-powered. They are supplied with AC to DC rectifiers to be mounted in aremote panel (by others). Rectifiers must be fuse-protected.
• Motor control circuit must be designed to kill motor power in the event of loss of brake power. If this safetyprovision is not made, it is possible for pulley motor to be “powered through” a clamped brake, burning brakeand/or motor.
• A wiring diagram is supplied with every Motorized Pulley. Always ensure that motor and brake power and con-trol circuits are connected according to instructions. Wiring diagrams are available separately, at any time,upon request.
• For rectifier connection and protection instructions, refer to rectifier data sheet supplied with Motorized Pulley.• Neglecting these instructions could cause damage to the motor and/or brake and voids product warranty.
11) High Duty Cycle:• Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys are designed to operate either continuously or intermittently. Page 72 gives
each standard model’s maximum allowable start/stop duty cycle for intermittent operation. OperatingMotorized Pulley above this maximum could cause motor and/or gearbox damage and voids product war-ranty.
• Optional Motorized Pulley designs are available to operate at higher duty cycles working with soft start devicesor appropriately programmed Variable Frequency Drives. Contact Rulmeca before designing a system tooperate at a duty cycle higher than specified in this catalog.
• Note that a conveyor control system that incorporates a “jog” command should be timed to restrict the num-ber of jogs to the maximum allowable start/stop duty cycle for each pulley model.

www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0780
13) Lagging Specifications:• Smooth and diamond pattern lagging is available in black synthetic rubber and white synthetic rub-
ber. Approximate rubber hardness is 60 durometer +/- 5 (shore hardness A).• Standard lagging is cold-bonded to pulley shell. • Optional hot vulcanized lagging is available for high power/high torque/high temperature applications
and for Motorized Pulleys with Class H motors.• Oil & grease resistant synthetic rubber is also available for oily operating conditions and/or certain
types of belting material. Check with belting supplier if belt/lagging material compatibility could be aproblem.
• Adequate Motorized Pulley heat dissipation is necessary. Lagging thickness and width greatly effectpulley heat dissipation characteristics.

12) Lagging Limitations:
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0781
• As shown in Lagging Limitations table above, certain power and belt speed combinations require that rubber lag-ging be restricted to the outer thirds of the pulley face to improve heat dissipation. Each “partially lagged” pulleyhas a thick steel shell in the center (unlagged) third of the pulley face.
• Contact Rulmeca before applying any lagging to pulley surface to obtain thickness and width specifications andmaintain Motorized Pulley warranty coverage.
• Lagging material is a wear item and should be replaced when it wears out. Service life depends upon the appli-cation. Product warranty does not include lagging wear.
• At any time all Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys shown in this catalog must be fitted with a conveyor belt to pre-vent overheating.Motorized Pulleys fitted without a belt must be referred to Rulmeca.
14) Mechanical Backstops:• Motorized Pulleys fitted with mechanical backstops are used on inclined conveyors to prevent run back of the
loaded belt when power supply is off.• The backstop is built into the Motorized Pulley and is mounted on the rotor shaft.• If pulley is supplied with optional mechanical backstop, direction of proper rotation of pulley is indicated by an
aluminum arrow or plastic sticker fastened to the end housing on the terminal box (or power cord) side of thepulley. Clockwise and counterclockwise backstops are available.
• Rotation direction is to be specified when placing the order.• Pulley rotation is specified from the point of view of a person looking at the pulley from the terminal box (or
power cord) side of the pulley. • It is essential that the identity of each of the three phases of the power supply be determined before attaching
power supply wires to the pulley to prevent the motor from driving against the backstop. The identity of eachof the three phases of the motor is clearly labeled on the terminal board, terminal strip, or wires (in power cordtype).
• Driving the motor against the mechanical backstop may damage motor and/or backstop and voids productwarranty.
15) Motor Current Overload and Overcurrent Protection:• Motor control system must include protection against operating pulley motors in excess of Full Load Amper-
age (FLA.). The control system should also include protection against voltage spikes and excessive joggingof motors. Failing to provide adequate current overload and over current protection could stress the motorand voids product warranty.
• Electrical connection diagrams for many models are included in this catalog. Connection diagrams for all othermodels are available upon request.
• FLA data is available for all motors upon request. FLA data is also supplied on motor label for each Motorized Pul-ley.
• Electrical power, control, and protection for Motorized Pulleys must adhere to all pertinent regulations.
16) Motor Thermal Protection:• All Motorized Pulley motors are supplied with built-in thermal protection. Protection
consists of heat-sensitive, bi-metallic switches built into each motor phase winding. The switches are designedto open if motor temperature elevates to an inappropriately high level. Whether insulation class “F” or “H”, ourstandard bi-metallic switch– has a maximum current limit of 2.5 amps at 230 volts.
• These switches must be connected to a normally closed control circuit (in series with a magnetic coil/relaydevice and contactor) in order to validate product warranty.
• A motor control circuit should kill motor power if thermal switch opens. Thermal switches will automaticallyclose as motor cools. Cooling times vary with pulley model, power, and size. However, 30 to 60 minutes iscommon with most motors in an ambient temperature of 70° F.
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0782
17) Motorized Pulley Mounting Orientation:• Before installing the Motorized Pulley, ensure that the data plate information agrees with your
specification.• Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys should always be mounted so that the pulley shafts are
1. Horizontal, 2. Parallel to idler rollers, and 3. Perpendicular to the conveyor belt centerline.
• Motorized Pulleys are positioned such that the mounting brackets are located parallel or perpendicular to theconveyor frame. The cable entry of the terminal box should be located downward or 90 degrees from downward.
• For Motorized Pulley types 138E to 500M “UP” is indicated with the word “UP” stamped on the pulley shaft. • Models 138E - 500M are to be mounted as shown on the sketch below.
• Models 500H - 800H are to be mounted as shown on the sketch below.
• In case of a non-horizontal installation, of more than +/-5 degrees, consult Rulmeca. • Installation and mounting of the Motorized Pulley in a position other than those described
above could cause severe product damage and voids product warranty.
• 18) Mounting Brackets:• Use the correct Rulmeca mounting brackets matching the respective types of Motorized Pulleys as listed in this
catalog.• Note that it is physically possible, but not permissible, to interchange mounting brackets between models.
Mounting brackets designed for smaller diameters or lower-powered pulleys may not be used for larger diame-ters or higher-powered pulleys.
• Mounting brackets must be mounted to frame such that belt pull is resisted by the shoulder or base of the mount-

ing bracket. Motorized Pulleys types 138E to 500M have a top shaft retaining plate. This plate is not designedto resist belt pull.
• The designer must select appropriate mounting bolts to resist belt forces and/or the weight of the pulley depend-ing on the mounting position of the Pulley.
• All types of mounting brackets must be fully supported by and fastened to the conveyor frame such that theshafts ends do not deform. Shaft ends must always be fully supported by the brackets.
• Where solid mounting brackets type AL and ALO are used, the brackets must be assembled close to theshoulder of the round shaft. This is to ensure that the Motorized Pulley has no axial clearance.
• The AL type of bracket is fitted with one or two keys depending on load.• Keys must be securely fixed and checked regularly and locked if necessary.• Mounting brackets should be fitted such that they are in contact with the shoulder of each shaft. This will:
1. Eliminate Motorized Pulley axial play between mounting brackets.2. Keep shaft deflection to a minimum.
• In noise-sensitive areas, the designer should use heavier gauge support structure and appropriate vibra-tion isolating material, as necessary.
• When Rulmeca Motorized Pulley mounting brackets are not used, it is essential that: 1. The mounting equipment supports at least 80% of the shaft flats. 2. The clearance between each shaft flat shoulder and its support is less than 0.030 inches.
• A Motorized Pulley with frequent reversible operations or many start/stops should be mounted with no axialclearance between the shaft flat and the brackets.
• Failing to follow these precautions could cause pulley and/or mounting bracket damage and voids product war-ranty.
19) Non-Belt, Partial Belt, Modular Belt:• Special Motorized Pulley designs are available for “non-belt, V-belt, partial belt, and modular belt” applica-
tions. See “Ambient Temperature Section” above.• It is essential that each special application be designed to adequately dissipate heat from the pulley surface.• Using a standard Motorized Pulley in one of these special applications could result in motor heat damage and
voids product warranty.• Contact Rulmeca for assistance with these applications.
20) Oil and Oil Seal Maintenance:• All Motorized Pulleys are supplied with an appropriate quantity of oil. Oil type is specified
by customer. Oil type and contents are given on the motor nameplate.• Standard, synthetic, food grade, low viscosity (for low temperature applications,) and high
viscosity (in noise-sensitive areas) are all available. For approved oil types and quantities, see pages 90-91.• Motorized Pulleys require periodic oil changes and are supplied with two oil fill/drain plugs in end housing.
Special “vertical mount” pulleys have four oil plugs (two in each end housing.)• The standard filling of mineral oil should be changed after each 10,000 operating hours under
normal operating conditions. • Synthetic oils should be changed after each 30,000 hours of normal operating condition. • Magnetic oil plug(s) should be cleaned during each oil change. A red dot plastic sticker indicates the position
of the magnetic oil plug.• Only approved non-conductive oil may be used in Motorized Pulleys.• Note that oil seals, regardless of oil type used, should be changed after 30,000 operating hours. On Motorized
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance

Pulley types 320M to 800H oil seals may be changed without removing Motorized Pulley from conveyor. Motor-ized Pulley standard types 138E to TM320L require Pulley disassembly to change oil seals. Rulmeca servicepersonal or authorized local service providers to perform this work.
• Take special precautions when changing brands of oil and types of oil because of potential oil incompatibility.Contact your local oil supplier for assistance. For example, when changing from standard to synthetic oil, it is necessary to: 1. Completely drain old standard oil;2. Partially fill pulley with “Clean-Flush-Lubricate” (CFL) fluid;3. Run pulley for 20 minutes; 4. Drain CFL fluid completely; then 5. Fill pulley with appropriate amount of new synthetic oil.
• Failing to observe these oil and oil seal precautions could shorten pulley service life and voids product warranty.• All the above instructions refer to Motorized Pulleys constantly working under full load. In case of Motorized
Pulleys not working continuously under full load, the service life will increase considerably. When checking theoil, the cleanness of the oil is always the best guideline of– The wear and condition of the gears and bearings– Whether to change the oil immediately or possibly delay the oil change
21) Pulley Diameter:• The type and size of conveyor belt will determine the minimum allowable Motorized Pulley diameter. Using a
pulley diameter too small for the belt can cause belt de-lamination, belt splice damage and can shorten bothbelt and pulley lagging life. Contact your belting supplier before specifying a pulley diameter.
22) Regreasable Labyrinth Seals:• All Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys are hermetically sealed. Standard oil seals are designed to contain oil within the
Motorized Pulley during normal operating conditions. They are capable of withstanding an internal pressure risethat occurs as the pulley motor temperature increases.
• Optional regreasable labyrinth seals are available to protect oil seals from harsh operating or maintenanceconditions. Each labyrinth seal provides a barrier of steel and grease to prevent ingress of dust and fluid throughthe oil seal.
• In abrasive operating conditions labyrinth seals should be periodically grease-purged to flush abrasive dustaway from the oil seal.
• In wet conditions, where it is common to wash down equipment with high-pressure detergent spray, labyrinthseals should be refilled with grease after each wash-down. High-pressure sprays remove grease from thelabyrinth seal, removing an important part of the barrier to fluid ingress.
• Grease should always be seen at the labyrinth gap.• If in some circumstances the re-grease frequency is high, an automatic greasing system is recommended.• Failing to perform necessary labyrinth seal maintenance could shorten service life and voids product warranty.
23) Repair and Mechanical Maintenance:• Normally Motorized Pulleys require no specific attention during their operation other than the changing of oil
and oil seals. They are ready for operation immediately after connection to the power supply.• If repair or maintenance is required, the Motorized Pulley must be disconnected from the power supply before
the terminal box may be opened.• During a test run, the shaft ends must be correctly fixed to the support frame and suitable guarding must be pro-
vided around rotating parts to protect personnel.
24) Reversing Conveyors:• All Motorized Pulleys for a three-phase power supply are reversible. Mechanical backstop option is not possi-
ble for reversible conveyor applications.• The conveyor drive control system must be designed to bring the Motorized Pulley to a complete stop before
reversing conveyor belt direction.
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0785
• Reversing conveyor direction without stopping the drive motor will damage motor and gearbox and voids prod-uct warranty.
25) Surface Coating:• Motorized Pulley models 400L to 800H are supplied with a standard salt water resistant primary paint coat of
2.4 mil. For aggressive environmental conditions the Motorized Pulley should also be painted to a thicknessof 4.7 mil.
• In this case it is essential that no paint enter the gap between the shaft and the end housing to prevent shaftsealing damage.
• Motorized Pulley types 138E to 320H are supplied with powder coated end housings. The shells and shafts aretreated with anti-rust wax.
26) Storage of Motorized Pulleys:• During storage Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys must be:
– stored in a building or, as a minimum, covered by an awning.– protected against direct sunlight to insure that sealing system does not dry out.– rotated at least 180 degrees every 6 months to lubricate all internal components.
• If Motorized Pulleys must be stored longer than 1 year, they must be tested before being put into operation.Such a test should include the following.– Motor winging should be checked with an insulation tester.– Winding resistance should be checked.– Thermal protector should be checked with a continuity tester.– Pulley should be connected to the power supply and run for a minimum of 30 minutes– Pulley should then be checked to verify that there are no oil leaks – Pulley should then be checked to verify that pulley body temperature does not exceed 160° F.
• For safety reasons check that the Motorized Pulley is properly fixed to the test frame during the test.
27) Start-up:• Prior to initial start-up of Motorized Pulley:
– Verify that Motorized Pulley nameplate data matches customer specification.– Ensure electrical connections are correct.– Check that Motorized Pulley is free to rotate.– Check that slack side belt tension is adequate to prevent belt slippage.– Check that belt is not over-tensioned.– Ensure that oil is present in the Motorized Pulley.
28) Terminal Box:• Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys are available with terminal boxes or power cords to facilitate electrical installation.
Power cords are available up to a motor power of 5.5 HP.• Two types of terminal box are available:
1. Standard large terminal box with threaded brass terminals.2. Optional compact terminal box with clamp terminals (WAGO) up to a motor power of 5.5 HP.
• Switch off Motorized Pulley power supply and control circuit(s) before opening terminal box.• Each terminal box has one or more conduit nipples and a cover plate. The cover plate should be removed to
facilitate termination of power and control wires within the terminal box. After wire connections are made coverplate should be replaced.
• Terminal boxes should never be disassembled or removed from the end of the shaft to reorient conduit nipplelocation.
• Modifications to terminal boxes should only be made by an authorized Rulmeca service center or after obtain-ing permission and instructions, in writing, from Rulmeca.
• A wiring diagram is placed inside the terminal box on the back of the terminal box cover.• Dismantling and reassembling a terminal box could cause a short circuit in the factory set (and tested) inter-
nal wiring and voids product warranty.
Technical Precautions for Design, Installation and Maintenance
www.rulmecacorp.com TC101: 03/0786
29) Transport and Handling:• For safety reasons during transport and assembly a lifting rope suitable to support the weight of the pulley must
be used. The weight of the pulley is stamped on the data plate and /or given in the catalog. • The rope must be fixed on the shaft ends.• For Motorized Pulley types 500H – 800H, a steel rope or chains should be fixed to the eyebolts,
which are located on the mounting brackets.
30) Variable Frequency Drive:• It is essential that each Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) be set within the motor’s allowable operating spec-
trum. For Rulmeca Motorized Pulleys the allowable frequency spectrum is 12 Hz to 66 Hz. There will be nomore than 5% torque loss within this range. This means that a Rulmeca Motorized Pulley is essentially a “con-stant torque” conveyor belt drive within the allowable frequency range.
• If operators attempt to drive the motor outside of the allowable range, then torque loss becomes significant,motor current draw elevates, motor cooling can become problematic, and product warranty is void.
• Do not allow resonant frequencies in the power line to cause voltage spikes in the motor. It is possible forthe VFD to set up resonant frequencies in the power line between the VFD and the motor if the power line istoo long. Potential resonant frequencies may be eliminated in two ways. Either limit the distance between theVFD and the motor (some VFD manufacturers recommend cable lengths of 30 feet or less) or simply installa filter on the VFD output (available from VFD manufacturer.)
• To avoid any radio interference the cable from motor to the VFD may be screened and properly grounded.• The power and current range of the VFD must be selected according to the full load amperage given on the
Motorized Pulley data plate.• Do not undersize the conveyor drive. Make certain the conveyor drive provides enough belt pull at each end
of the desired belt speed range. Remember that horsepower is linearly proportional to frequency.• For example, a 10 HP Motorized Pulley, which is designed to provide 1,080 lbs of belt pull at a conveyor
speed of 300 feet per minute (fpm) on a three phase power supply of 460 volts and 60 Hz, will provide approx-imately 1,080 lbs of belt pull at 60 Hz. By definition, 1 HP equals 33,000 foot-lbs per minute. Therefore, this10 HP unit provides 1,080 lbs x 300 fpm = 324,000 ft-lbs/minute of power. This equates to (324,000 ft-lbs/minute)/(33,000 ft-lbs/minute/HP) = 9.8 HP.
• If the Motorized Pulley described above is run at 30 Hz to provide a belt speed of 150 fpm, the torque (or “beltpull”) stays constant and the belt speed decreases. Therefore, the 10 HP unit described above, while run-ning at 30 Hz, will provide the following power. 1,080 lbs x 150 fpm = 162,000 ft-lbs/minute. Note that powerat this frequency only equals (162,000 ft-lbs/minute)/(33,000 ft-lbs/minute/HP) = 4.9 HP.
• If design conditions require 10 HP at 300 fpm an 10 HP at 150 fpm, the designer will undersize the drive if hespecifies a 10 HP Motorized Pulley to be driven by a VFD at 60 Hz and 30 Hz. This is because the Motor-ized Pulley will only provide 4.9 HP at 150 fpm (30 Hz), as shown above. Therefore, if the designer knowshe will need 10 HP at 300 fpm and 10 HP at 150 fpm, he should specify a 20 HP unit designed to provide a300 fpm belt speed at 60 Hz. In this way when he uses a VFD to slow down the drive, he will have 10 HPavailable at 150 fpm (30 Hz0 and more than 10 HP available at 300 fpm (60 Hz.)
• Contact VFD supplier to properly match the VFD capabilities with the conveyor Operating requirements andMotorized Pulley electrical characteristics.

Motorized PulleysVariable Frequency Drives
Taconite Plant - After Conversion (Minnesota—USA)Taconite processor converted limestone feeder conveyor drives from 1975vintage DC motors and chain/sprocket speed reducers to 460 volt 3 phase60 Hz AC-powered Motorized Pulleys in 1995. Photo was taken beforechute and hood were reinstalled. ABB variable frequency drive (VFD) driveseach 19.72” diameter 5.5 HP motorized pulley to a maximum belt speed of120 FPM. Torque loss is limited to less than 5% because operating fre-quencies are between 12 and 66 Hz.
Technical Precaution: When driving motorized pulley with VFD on 460 volt3 phase 60 Hz power supply, always restrict frequencies to allowable fre-quency spectrum of 12 to 66 Hz to avoid torque loss and heat build-up.
Various Limestone Quarries (Georgia—USA)Photo shows two of ten 15.75” diameter Motorized Pulleys installed 1994-1998 to automatically “choke feed” tertiary gyratory crushers. Working incombination with a VFD and an ultrasonic sensor, each Motorized Pulleydrives a 36” wide belt at a maximum speed of 120 FPM to transfer 4” minusproduct from hopper to crusher throat at 425 TPH.
Technical Precaution: When driving motorized pulley with VFD, filter VFDoutput if it is more than 30’ from motorized pulley to avoid resonance-induced voltage spikes.
Taconite Plant - Before Conversion (Minnesota—USA)Prior to 1995 conversion to Motorized Pulleys, old maintenance-prone chain& sprocket units served as DC motor speed reducers. Frequent lubricationof pulley pillow blocks, maintenance of chains/sprockets, expanded metalsafety guards, and DC motors were all eliminated with the installation ofMotorized Pulleys at this location.
Technical Precaution: When converting a system to use a VFD do notundersize the conveyor drive. Make certain conveyor drive provides enoughbelt pull at each end of the desired belt speed range. Remember that horse-power is linearly proportional to frequency (e.g. a 10 HP Motorized Pulley,designed to provide 1,080 lbs of belt pull at 460 volts and 60 Hz, will provideapproximately 1,080 lbs of belt pull at 30 Hz, but this equates to 4.9 HP.)

Ceramic - Segments and BlocksTwo types of ceramic lagging are available: Solid Red Porous Ceramic Seg-ments (see photo on left) bonded directly to steel pulley face and SolidGreen Porous Ceramic Blocks (see photo insert) hot vulcanized into blacksynthetic rubber. Both types are available in “full” and “partial” face widthconfigurations are offer high traction and excellent resistance to wear.
89
“Full” Diamond Pattern Synthetic RubberMost popular lagging is 1/4” thick cold-bonded black diamond pattern syn-thetic rubber lagging in 60 durometer +/- 5 (shore hardness A.) This long-lasting material has excellent frictional characteristics in wet or dry, outdoorand indoor applications for single direction and reversing belts. Asdescribed on pages 80 & 81, other thicknesses are available as well assmooth, white, and oil-resistant rubber. Hot vulcanized bonding is alsoavailable.
Technical Precaution: Lagging thickness effects pulley heat dissipationcharacteristics. Refer to “Lagging Limitations” chart on page 80.
“Partial” Smooth Pattern Synthetic RubberAs described above, certain power and belt speed combinations require thatlagging be restricted to the outer thirds of the pulley face to improve heat dis-sipation. Photo on left shows partial lagging at 3/8” thick hot vulcanizedblack smooth pattern synthetic rubber lagging in 60 durometer +/- 5 (shorehardness A.)
Also note standard painted type ALOE mounting bracket, complete with lift-ing lug.
“Partial” Diamond Pattern Synthetic RubberCertain power and belt speed combinations require that lagging be restrict-ed to the outer thirds of the pulley face to improve heat dissipation. Each“partially lagged” pulley has an extra thick pulley shell in the center of thepulley face. Most popular partial lagging is 3/8” thick cold-bonded black dia-mond pattern synthetic rubber lagging in 60 durometer +/- 5 (shore hard-ness A.) As described on pages 80 & 81, other thicknesses are availableas well as smooth, white, and oil-resistant rubber. Hot vulcanized bondingis also available.
