Correction factors c
6
and c
8
Like the basic service factor c
0
, the factors to be added for pulleys
and idlers c
6
and for start/stop frequency under load c
8
are to be
taken as approximations only. These factors are allowances to
be made for unusual operating conditions and are added where
applicable to the basic service factor c
0
.

Start/stop c
8
= 0.1 ... 0.3 depending upon
and/or frequency, up to
reversing approx. 1.5 times

torque (e.g. star/
delta connection)
c
8
= 0.3 ... 0.5 depending upon
frequency, above
approx. 1.5 times
nominal torque
with high start-up
torque
The correction factor c
6
applies when more than two pulleys are
used. Such use of additional pulleys must be separately checked at
the design stage.
Large drive torque of inertia should be classified as external loads.

Length factor c
3
for ZRM/ZRP belts
The approximate values for the length factor c
3
are given in
Table 2.3 and apply only to rotating highly loaded drives fitted
with ZRM/ZRP timing belts.
The length factor c
3
takes into account the increase or decrease of
belt flexing when using a short or long belt.
Note the units used for the individual parts of the formulae. The formulae for the driven torque and driven power also apply for the driver
side using the formula symbols M
