perma Lubrication Systems for Electric Motors
Lubrication points are located on the drive and non-drive end of the motor. Grease escape (grease drain hole, grease trap, grease relief port) is important. Bearings will overheat if grease cannot escape or if grease traps are filled up with old grease. During manual lubrication, the grease is applied in uneven amounts. Too much lubricant at one time causes temporary overgreasing. Long relubrication intervals lead to lubricant starvation.
- Excess grease takes hours to be distributed in the bearing: Bearing heating / fire hazard; Shut-off by temperature control
- Bearing damage from lubricant starvation results in unscheduled equipment downtimes and higher production costs
- Increased maintenance costs caused by premature wear Relubrication on running motors (recommended by motor manufacturers) puts workers in danger. Maintenance work in dangerous and hard-to-reach places increases the risk for workplace accidents.
- High risk of work-related injuries
- Motor shut-down required when entering dangerous areas
