6.1.6 Oil temperature monitoring system
The gear unit can be equipped with an oil temperature monitoring system that uses a
temperature sensor.
The oil temperature monitoring has been designed to check the oil temperature while the gear
unit is operation.
6.2 Measures to be taken during commissioning
Please observe the following measures to commission the gear unit and document these:
● For gear units with oil supply system: Check that the oil supply system is working properly.
● Check the oil level.
● Measure the oil sump temperature (Page 94) after the gear unit has run in.
● Check the tightness of the shaft seal on the gear unit (Page 25).
● Check that no contact with rotating parts is possible.
● Check whether the shutoff valves are open.
– Check that all of the oil drain valves are closed.
– Ensure that all of the other shutoff valves are open.
● Check all the connection lines are securely tightened and leak-free.
● For gear units with bearing monitoring by measuring the vibration: Measure the vibration
levels of the rolling-contact bearings (Page 96) to create initial and comparison values.
● For gear units with bearing monitoring using a Pt 100 resistance thermometer: Measure the
temperature at the rolling-contact bearings (Page 96) to create initial and comparison
values.
● Bypass the pressure monitor signal for around 20 seconds during commissioning. This is
necessary as the pressure in the gear unit must first stabilise. If the oil pressure has still not
built up after 20 seconds, you can extend this period slightly in consultation with the
manufacturer.
Further information
You can find additional information on the topic of oil in the operating instructions BA 7300,
provided in the complete gear unit documentation.
Further information about the oil supply system can be found in the oil supply system operating
instructions in the complete documentation for the gear unit.
