DNV DNVGL-CP-0148 PDF

This CP gives a description of the procedures and requirements related to documentation, design and type testing applicable for TA of couplings for torque transmission in propulsion or auxiliary plants. In this context couplings mean all kinds of couplings except torsionally flexible couplings. For elastic (torsional) couplings, see CP 0147.

This CP does not set the design requirements to the couplings. TA is based on compliance with design requirements given in the DNV GL rules and/or other regulations and standards. The CP describes the applicable design requirements and how to document compliance with the requirements in order to obtain a TA certificate for the equipment. This includes, where relevant, technical requirements for how the type tests shall be performed.
