1. Lubricants for gear units

This lubricant recommendation does not apply to WINERGY AG gear units.

Caution!
For axle drives, marine gearboxes and turbo gear units also special lubricant
recommendations apply.

According to manufacturers information the gear oils listed in these operating instructions are
manufactured and supplied world-wide in the above-mentioned quality as required by FLENDER
(Exceptions: Observe footnotes in the following tables).

1.1 Required quality of gear oils

For FLENDER gear units, only CLP-quality oils containing active agents to DIN 51 517-3 for increasing
corrosion protection and resistance to ageing and for reducing wear in mixed-friction areas are
approved. The scuffing resistance in the FZG test to DIN 51354-2 must comply with stage 12 or higher
under A/8,3/90 test conditions. In the FE-8 rolling bearing test to DIN 51 819-3 rolling element wear must
be under 30 mg and cage wear under 100 mg under test conditions D-7,5/80-80.

In addition, the gear oils must meet the following quality requirements demanded by FLENDER:

S Sufficiently high grey-staining resistance in accordance with FVA 54 grey-staining test

a) for helical-gear, bevel-gear and planetary-gear units in table A, GS-criteria stage 10
or higher applies, and high grey-staining resistance GST = high
b) for all other gear units in tables B and C, GS-criteria stage 9 or higher applies

S Low degree of foaming with less than 15 % foam formation in the FLENDER foam test

S Compatibility with elastomer materials of the radial shaft-sealing rings applied in FLENDER gear units

S Compatibility with residues of corrosion-protection agent and run-in oils used by FLENDER

S Compatibility with the paints used by FLENDER in its gear-unit interiors

S Compatibility with liquid seals between bolted-joint surfaces.

For use in worm-gear units moreover:

S Low wear, high pitting resistance and high efficiency (low temperature) in the cylindrical worm-gear
unit test

Note: The use of gear oils which do not comply with the above quality requirements
invalidate the FLENDER product guarantee obligation. Please note that every oil
manufacturer or supplier is responsible for the quality of his product.

Always select the gear oil in accordance with the oil group and viscosity class indicated on the rating
plate on the gear unit. If a different viscosity is selected, or oil of a type other than those recommended
in these instructions, the operator assumes the responsibility for its technical suitability. In order to
minimise the technical risk in such a case, the oil applied must be at least CLP oil quality to
DIN 51 517-3, which should be confirmed by the oil manufacturer.

The oil group and oil viscosity indicated on the rating plates as well as the
Caution! instructions in the gear-unit operating instructions must be adhered to.

Deviations are permitted only after consultation with FLENDER!

BA 7300 EN 01.05
 

1.1.1 Oil groups

In tables A, B and C five oil groups are distinguished:

S Mineral oils (MIN oil)

S Polyglycol (PG oil)

S Poly-a olefin (PAO oil)

S Biologically degradable oils (BIO oil)

S Physiologically safe oils approved in accordance with USDA H1 (PHY oil).

1.1.2 Oil temperatures

The synthetic oils have a wider temperature range and a higher viscosity index (i.e. a flatter
viscosity-temperature gradient) than the mineral oils. Guideline values for temperature range:

mineral oils approx. 10 C to +90 C (short term +100 C);

polyglycols and poly-a olefins approx. 20 C to +100 C (short term +110 C);
bio-degradable oils (synthetic Ester) approx. 15 to +90 C.

Note: The upper and lower operating temperatures of certain gear oils may deviate widely
from the values indicated. For operating conditions outside the above mentioned
temperature ranges, the flash point and pour point of the oils must be observed. For
these and other data and properties of the gear oils, refer to the oil manufacturers
technical data sheets (to this purpose Flender must be consulted).

1.1.3 General oil service lives

According to the manufacturers, the following are the minimum periods during which the oils can be
used without undergoing any significant change in quality. They are calculated on the basis of an
average oil temperature of 80 C:

mineral oils, bio-degradable oils and physiologically safe oils: 2 years or 10 000 hours of service

for poly-a olefins and polyglycols: 4 years or 20 000 hours of service.

Note: The actual service lives may be higher or lower (for temperatures over 80 C). The
general rule is that an increase in temperature of 10 K will halve the service life.

1.1.4 Oil change

The degree of purity of the oil affects the operating reliability and life span of the oil and the gear unit.
It should therefore be ensured that the oil in the gear unit is clean. For the first oil change after start-up
and for subsequent oil changes, the specifications in the gear-unit operating instructions must be
observed. In the case of larger oil quantities, an analysis should be carried out before cleaning or
changing the oil.

When changing oil of the same type, the quantity of oil remaining in the gear unit should be kept as low
as possible. Generally speaking, a small remaining quantity will cause no particular problems. Gear oils
of different types and manufacturers must not be mixed. If necessary, the manufacturer should confirm
that the new oil is compatible with residues of the old oil. When changing to very different types of oil
or oils with very different additives, especially when changing from polyglycols to another gear oil or vice
versa, the gear unit must always be well flushed out with the new oil. Residues of old oil must be
completely removed from the gear unit.

Gear oils must never be mixed with other substances. Flushing with paraffin or
Caution! other solvents is not permitted, as traces of these substances always remain
inside the unit.

1.2 Lubricating greases for gear units and rolling bearings

For special gear unit applications, grease lubrication of the gears and/or bearings may be necessary.

Note: Greases may be used only if their use is specified in the operating instructions for the
gear unit. The relubrication periods must be adhered to.

Gear greases are suitable for the lubrication of gears and bearings with closed gear units (e.g. small
gear units) and open drives with low peripheral speeds (e.g. for girth gears, racks).

As well as lubrication, rolling bearing greases are used for the special sealing of bearing points, e.g.
with vertical gear-unit connection shafts or against environmental action such as dust or water spray.

Note: In closed gear units with internal oil lubrication the gear oils must not be allowed to
mix with bearing greases.

2. Lubricants for ZAPEX couplings

Note: For FLUDEX couplings, special lubricant recommendations apply.

According to manufacturers information the oils and greases listed in these operating instructions are
manufactured and supplied world-wide in the above-mentioned quality as required by FLENDER
(Exceptions: Observe footnotes in the tables).

2.1 Required oil and grease quality

For FLENDER ZAPEX couplings, only oils and greases containing active agents to DIN 51 517-3 for
increasing corrosion protection and resistance to ageing and for reducing wear in mixed-friction areas
are approved. The scuffing resistance of the oils in the FZG test to DIN 51 354-2 must comply with stage
12 or higher under A/8,3/90 test conditions.

In addition, the oils and greases must meet the following quality requirements specified by FLENDER:

S Compatibility with elastomer materials of the shaft-sealing rings

S Compatibility with liquid seals between bolted-joint surfaces.

Note: The use of lubricants which do not comply with the above quality requirements may
invalidate our product guarantee. Please note that every lubricant manufacturer or
supplier is responsible for the quality of his product.

Which lubricant to select always depends on the viscosity or NLGI class indicated in these operating
instructions. If a different viscosity or NLGI class or a lubricant of a type other than those recommended
in these instructions is used, the operator is responsible for its technical suitability. To minimise the
technical risk in such cases, we recommend using a lubricant of the above indicated quality, which
should be accompanied by a statement of suitability by the lubricant manufacturer.

The instructions given in the operating instructions for the couplings must be
Caution! observed!

Deviations are permitted only after consultation with FLENDER!

2.1.1 Oil and grease types

Note: The upper and lower limits for the operating temperatures (flash point, pour point) of
individual oils and greases may vary considerably. For these and other data and
properties of oils and greases, refer to the lubricant manufacturers technical data
sheets.

According to the manufacturers, the following are the minimum periods during which the oils or greases
can be used without undergoing any significant change in quality:

with use at up to 70 C after approx. 8 000 operating hours, max. 2 years,

with use at over 70 C after approx. 3 000 operating hours, max. 1 year.

2.1.2 Oil and grease change

The degree of purity of the lubricant affects the operating reliability and life span of the lubricant and
the coupling. Care must always be taken that the oil or grease in the coupling is clean. For the first
lubricant change after start-up of the coupling and for subsequent lubricant changes, the specifications
in the operating instructions for the coupling must be observed. With larger lubricant quantities, an
anlysis should be carried out to find out whether cleaning or changing is required.

When changing lubricant of the same type, the quantity of lubricant remaining in the coupling should
be kept as low as possible. Generally speaking, a small remaining quantity will cause no particular
problems. Lubricants of different types and manufacturers must not be mixed together. If necessary,
confirmation that the new lubricant is compatible with residues of the old lubricant should be obtained
from the manufacturer.

Caution! Lubricants must never be mixed with other substances.
