9.3.7
Re-greasing
For machines with regreasing system, relubrication intervals, grease quantity and grease grade
are provided on the lubricant plate. Additional data can be taken from the main machine rating
plate.
Grade of grease for standard motors (IP55) UNIREX N3 - ESSO.
Note
It is not permissible to mix different types of grease.
Prolonged storage periods reduce the useful lifetime of the bearing grease. Check the
condition of the grease if the equipment has been in storage for more than 12 months.
If the grease is found to have lost oil content or to be contaminated, the machine must
be immediately relubricated before commissioning. For information on permanently-greased
bearings, please refer to the section titled Rolling bearings (Page 107).
Procedure
To relubricate the rolling bearings, proceed as follows:
1. Clean the grease nipples at the drive end and non-drive end.
2. Press-in the specified grease and amount of grease according to the data stamped on the
lubrication plate.
– Please observe the information on the rating and lubricant plates.
– Regreasing should be carried out when the motor is running (max. 3600 rpm).
The bearing temperature can rise significantly at first, and then drops to the normal value
again when the excess grease is displaced out of the bearing.
WARNING
Rotor can fall out
If the machine is in a vertical position, the rotor can fall out while work is being performed on
the locating bearing. This can result in death, serious injury or material damage.
Support or relieve the rotor when carrying out work with the machine in a vertical position.
9.3.8
Cleaning
Cleaning the grease ducts and spent grease chambers
The spent grease collects outside each bearing in the spent grease chamber of the outer bearing
cap. When replacing bearings, remove the spent grease.
Dismantle the bearing cartridges to replace the grease in the lubrication duct.
