Page 16: General Information Regarding Air Motors
General Information Regarding Air Motors Air motors operate best with lubricated, dry, clean air at air pressures below 100psi. Air Lubricator: Lubricated air is typically available from the air system. If not, an automatic lubricator must be installed in the air- line ahead of the air motor. Use a pneumatic air lubricant e.g. ISO VG32 or detergent SAE #10 automotive oil. Lubricator should be adjusted to feed one drop of oil for every 50 to 75cfm. - Page 17 Air Motor Horsepower Rating & Air Consumption For Air Motors Rated at 1.5HP For Air Motors Rated at 4HP Note: Output rpm refers to motor output shaft only. For gear reduced drives refer to gear ratio on quotation. R15-042020...
- Page 18 Gear Driven Gear drivers for mixers are lubricated at the factory using the proper type and amount of lubricant for normal service, and are maintenance free. For additional information contact Dynamix Agitators. Mixer Shaft Bearings Mixer Shaft Bearings are pre-lubed and sealed and do not require re-lubrication.
