Lubricant selection/lubricant table

INFORMATION

The oil viscosity and type (mineral/synthetic) to be used are determined by SEWEURODRIVE specifically for each order. This information is noted in the order
confirmation and on the gear unit's nameplate. Any deviation from these conditions
requires consultation with SEW-EURODRIVE.

General information on selecting the oil


Unless a special arrangement is made, SEW-EURODRIVE delivers the drives without
oil. This does not apply to auxiliary drives and primary gear units.

INFORMATION

This means the gear unit must be filled with the correct oil grade and quantity before
startup. You may find the corresponding information on the nameplate of the gear unit.

The following tables provide an overview of mineral and synthetic oils.

Lubrication, Cooling and Heating


Lubricant selection/lubricant table

In addition to the required viscosity, the oil must fulfill the following criteria:

CLP oils according to DIN 51517-3

Micro-pitting test according to FVA, FV no. 54/ I-IV, GFT class high, damage force
level >10

If synthetic oil is used, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends polyalphaolefin-based oil


(CLP HC).

INFORMATION
Observe the operating temperature of the gear unit when specifying the oil change
intervals.
If required, a cooling system must be used or the oil change interval must be shortened
(see "Lubricant Change Intervals" in the "Helical and Bevel-Helical X.. Series Gear
Units operating instructions).

5.2.2

Permitted lubricants

INFORMATION

The standard for viscosity and oil grade is the type of oil that is specified by SEWEURODRIVE on the order (see order confirmation and nameplate).

Consult SEW-EURODRIVE if you use bio and food grade lubricants or polyglycol
oils.

Check the compatibility of the greases and oils used.

Key to the lubricant table


The lubricant table shows the permitted lubricants for SEW-EURODRIVE gear units.
This information is provided to preselect the lubricant. The proper and final lubricant
selection is made by SEW-EURODRIVE to match the specific project. Consider the
used abbreviations, meaning of shading and notes.
CLP

= Mineral oil

CLP HC

= Synthetic polyalphaolefin

= Ester oil (water hazard classification 1)


= Mineral lubricant
= Synthetic lubricant
3) = Lubricants may only be used if service factor Fs 1.3
4) = Take into account critical startup behavior at low ambient temperatures
6) = Ambient temperature
= Lubricant for the food industry (food grade oil)
= Biodegradable oil (lubricant for agriculture, forestry, and water management)

A shaft end pump (direction-independent) supplies all bearing points and gearing
outside the oil sump with oil via piping.

14

The pump is mounted externally to the gear unit and is driven by the input shaft or
intermediate shaft of the gear unit, assuring high reliability of the pump.

15

Different pump sizes are available. Adequate flow rate for the specific application
depends on the following factors:

Oil quantity required to supply the lubrication points

Pump position (connected to input shaft or intermediate shaft)

Gear unit ratio

Speed range of the gear unit

16
17
18

INFORMATION

19

Proper functioning of the shaft end pump is monitored via the connected pressure
switch. See page 127.

20

Consult SEW-EURODRIVE for selecting the suitable flow rate. For dimensions,
see page 419.

A minimum input speed is required for the shaft end pump to operate properly. If
you use variable input speeds (e.g. inverter-controlled drives) or if you intend to
change the input speed of a gear unit equipped with a shaft end pump, you must
contact SEW-EURODRIVE.

Motor pump /ONP


With pressure lubrication, a motor pump supplies all bearing points and gearing above
the oil sump with oil via internal piping.

A motor pump is used, for example, if the required speed of the shaft end pump (> 400
rpm) is not reached. It is also used in an inverter operation where a shaft end pump
cannot be used or can only be used under certain circumstances.

The motor pump is mounted externally to the gear unit and depends on the speed of the
gear unit.

To achieve the thermal ratings listed in the selection tables (beginning on page 142),
different flow rates of the cooling water are necessary, depending on the size, mounting
position, and type of lubrication. The following table lists the approximate values for the
flow rates required for the M5 mounting position (water inflow temperature 60F).

INFORMATION

Contact SEW-EURODRIVE when using a different flow rate, a different water


temperature, a special cooling media, or an aggressive cooling media (such as
brackish water or salt water), since they affect the cooling capacity of the cartridge.

Circulation cooling: oil-water cooler with splash lubrication /OWC


An oil-water cooler can be used if a naturally-cooled gear unit or a gear unit with a fan
on the input shaft has an insufficient thermal rating. However, appropriate cooling water
must be available on site.

INFORMATION

Structure

Contact SEW-EURODRIVE if a chemically aggressive cooling media, such as


brackish or salt water, is used.

The following information applies to gear units with splash lubrication. The cooling
system with a motor pump only cools the gear unit oil. It does not provide pressure
lubrication.

When installing a filter in the OWC cooling system, there should be sufficient height
for removing the filter element and the filter hood.

SEW-EURODRIVE uses two different types of heat exchangers:

Plate Exchanger:
For gear unit sizes X140 to X170, a plate heat exchanger is used for oil supply
systems OWC 005/015/025.

Cooling

The user must provide a low-vibration installation that is no more than 3 feet from the
gear unit. The cooling system should be at the same level as the gear unit or lower. If
this is not possible, contact SEW-EURODRIVE.

Notes on the
installation and
connection

The cooler must be installed in such a way that input and output air flow is not
obstructed. There should also be sufficient ventilation and protection against dirt. The
following procedures are required when connecting the cooling system:

Avoid a short circuit in the cooling circuit. The suction and pressure lines must be
installed on the gear unit as far apart as possible.

Do not reduce the recommended cable cross section, as shown on the next page.

Choose the correct wall thickness and material when selecting pipes, hoses and
screw fittings. Preferably, use composite material seals.

As standard, the oil-air cooling system is delivered in the design as illustrated below. The
connections of the cooling system are located on the lefthand side of the system. In
order to keep the cable lengths to the gear unit as short as possible, the suction and
pressure connection should be aligned towards the gear unit during installation. If
necessary, the connections can be moved to the other side. To do so, loosen the pump
head [1] and the register [2], rotate them by 180, and re-attach them.

It is essential that the heating elements are fully immersed into the oil sump to
prevent damage.

15

The position of the thermostat and the temperature sensor varies with the design
and the mounting position of the gear unit.

16

The usage and the maximum number of heating elements depends on the gear unit
size, mounting position, end gear position, and type of lubrication.

17

Some combinations of accessories are not possible, depending on the mounting


position and the mounting surface. Consult SEW-EURODRIVE.

Notes on the function of the oil heater


The switching point of the oil heater thermostat is factory set to a temperature of
about 9F above the respective limit temperature "without heater". The thermostat
turns off the oil heater at this temperature. Only then may the gear unit be started. If
the temperature falls below the trip point by approximately 9F, the thermostat
reactivates the oil heater.

Thermostat and oil heater are installed on the gear unit and are ready for operation,
but they must be wired properly and connected to the external power supply before
startup.

Contact SEW-EURODRIVE if another oil viscosity is used or if the ambient


temperature falls below the specified limit temperature.
