Oil Expansion Chamber
APD units size 4 and up are supplied with an oil expansion chamber. With the motor mounted vertically
and the gear case filled almost completely with oil in order to lubricate the 1st stage gearing, certain
operating conditions can result in additional oil churning and heating of the air space above the oil
resulting in oil loss. The oil expansion chamber provides a safe overflow area for the expanded oil-air
mixture, thus eliminating excessive pressure build-up, minimizing the formation of foam and preventing
oil-loss through the breather, oil seals, gaskets, etc.
As heat is released from the expanded air-oil mixture contained within the overflow chamber, gravity
allows the oil to be returned to primary gear sump supply, eliminating a critical loss of the oil level (the
expansion chamber must be mounted above the oil fill line with the hose connected down towards the
oil supply so the oil can flow back into the reducer naturally).
