Table 4.5 Lubricant Grades
NOTE
Synthetic gear oils with a polyglycol base (e.g. PGLP etc.) must be kept separate from mineral oils and disposed of as special
waste.
As long as the ambient temperature does not fall below -10 °C, ISO viscosity grade VG 220 (SAE 90) is recommended. This is
as specified in the international definition of viscosity grades at 40 °C in accordance with ISO 3448 and DIN 51519 and for
North America, AGMA 5 EP.
For lower ambient temperatures, oils of a lower nominal viscosity, with correspondingly better starting characteristics,
should be used. Fow example, PGLP with a nominal viscosity of VG 68 (SAE 80) or AGMA 2 EP. These grades may also be
required at temperatures around the freezing point in the following circumstances:
•
If the drive unit's break-away torque has been reduced with a view to achieving soft starting
•
If the motor has a relatively low-power output

4.4.3 Lubricant Volume

The recommended lubricant quantity for the particular
mounting position is indicated on the motor nameplate.
When filling, ensure that the upper gear unit components
are also well lubricated.
