The Chelsea 897RAFJW-M5ZS or 897RAFJWM5ZS is a constant-mesh power take-off engineered specifically for Allison 3000 and 4000 Series transmissions. It mounts via a 10-bolt pattern and positions the SAE C output flange to the rear of the transmission, locating the pump interface behind the gear section for improved clearance between the pump and the frame rail. The main shaft is a single one-piece design, eliminating the input splines found in PTO-plus-extension configurations. Wet Spline Technology lubricates the output shaft to extend spline life under demanding duty cycles. Continuous torque capacity reaches 670 lb-ft; intermittent torque is rated at 501+ lb-ft. Shaft power output is 64 HP at 500 RPM and 128 HP at 1,000 RPM. Typical applications include aerial trucks, fire and rescue apparatus, refuse trucks, and truck cranes.
