MOTOX gearbox - DS TECH

Technical description2.6 Shaft seals2.6 Shaft sealsThe radial shaft sealing ring, combination shaft sealing ring, labyrinth seal, and slide ringseal at the shaft outlet prevent lubricant from escaping from the housing and impurities fromentering it.2.6.1 Radial shaft sealing ringThe radial shaft sealing ring is used as the standard type of seal. It is provided with anadditional dust lip to protect against contaminants from outside.At higher ambient temperatures over +40 °C to +80 °C, shaft sealing rings of temperatureresistantmaterial are used, subject to contractual agreement.2.6.2 Combination shaft sealing ring (optional)The combination shaft sealing ring offers an improved oil seal, for example, additionalsealing lips prevent the ingress of dirt. The separate sealing system prevents shaft shrinkagedue to corrosion or dirt. The grease packing prevents the sealing lips from running dry.When carrying out repairs, e.g., if the shaft has shrunk, you can replace the standard sealwith a combination shaft sealing ring.2.7 CoolingCAUTIONDust deposits prevent heat radiation and cause high housing temperatures.Keep the gearbox free from dirt and dust, etc.The gearbox does not normally require additional cooling. The generously dimensionedhousing surface is sufficient for dissipating heat losses where there is free convection. If thehousing temperature exceeds a value of +80 °C, please contact Technical Support.BA 201014 Operating Instructions, 05/2011
