GEAR / LUBE OIL

GEAR / LUBE OIL

EFFECT OF PRESENT SYSTEM – CONTAMINATION:

Second most important component in gear system is “bearing”. Understanding gear box maintenance / failure most of the time, means ‘bearing failure’. This is just because clearance between gears is very high comparing to the clearance in bearings. The oil used for gear box is high viscosity and boundary layer thickness is very high. Tiny contaminations, less than this boundary layer thickness, do impact but little for gear surfaces and provide wear of gears.

But these ‘tiny contaminants’ for gears becomes “BIG” for bearing. And results is heavy friction and ultimately FAILURE of bearings, resulting in maintenance of Gear box.

Gear box failure means directly DOWN TIME for the equipment & for the plant.

EFFECT OF PRESENT SYSTEM MOISTURE:

Generally gear oils are designed with moisture release agents. There are conventional methods Moisture gets separated at bottom of the tank with one working and on standby tank.

But in rare case oil convert to emulsion in that case only option is to replace or get it treated out.

A SOLUTION :

A key solution for reducing emulsified and dissolved moisture-

Presenting VATS make Fluent HVDH L2 series for moderate viscosity oil up to 460 cst and moisture control to less than 1000 ppm with continuous installation. Please note that moisture separation from these high viscosity oil is a slow process and time required is entirely depending of oil type and oil additives.

Result of VATS solution-

• Almost 100% Up Time
• Almost *Zero Component Breakdown
• Multi-fold Oil life
• Less cost to your breakdown cost

Increase Productivity.
