2.2 Selection of lubricants
Lubricants are an element of system design.
A suitable lubricant is selected already when
designing the machine and forms the basis
for the planning of a centralized lubrication
system.
The selection is made by the manufacturer
or operator of the machine, preferably to-
gether with the lubricant supplier based on
the requirement profile defined.
Should you have little or no experience with
the selection of lubricants for centralized lu-
brication systems, please contact SKF.
If required we will be glad to support cus-
tomers to select suitable components for
feeding the selected lubricant and to plan
and design their centralized lubrication
system.
You will avoid possible downtimes due to a
damage to your machine or damage to the
centralized lubrication system.
2.3 Material compatibility
Lubricants must generally be compatible
with the following materials:
○
steel, grey iron, brass, copper, aluminium
○
NBR, FPM, ABS, PA, PUR
2.4 Temperature characteristics
The lubricant used must be suitable for the
specific ambient temperature of the product.
The consistency/ viscosity suitable for proper
operation of the product must be adhered
to and must not be exceeded in case of low
temperatures nor fall below specification in
case of high temperatures. For information
see chapter Technical data.
2.5 Ageing of lubricants
After a prolonged downtime of the machine,
the lubricant must be inspected prior to
re-commissioning as to whether it is still
suitable for use due to chemical or physical
ageing. We recommend that you undertake
this inspection already after a machine
downtime of 1 week.
If doubts arise as to a further suitability of
the lubricant, please replace it prior to re-
commissioning and, if necessary, undertake
initial lubrication by hand.
It is possible for lubricants to be tested in the
company's laboratory for their suitability for
being pumped in centralized lubrication sys-
tems (e.g. "bleeding").
Please contact SKF. if you have further ques-
tions regarding lubricants.
