Lubrication

Lubrication plays a great role in the performance and life of any power transmission element. Care should be taken to ensure the proper lubrication of TRX Planetary drives. Standard Planetary Gear Boxes are lubricated by Grease or oil depending on the temperature as under:
Grease Model 019 in single, double, triple & four stages is grease lubricated Oil Models 028, 038, 050, 060, 070, 080, 095, 110, 120 in single, double, triple & four stages are oil lubricated.

Grease Lubrication
Grease lubricated Planetary Gear Boxes are filled with Lithium base Grease, before despatch from our factory.

Oil Lubrication
In case of oil lubricated gear boxes, the gear boxes are tested with proper grade of oil in the factory. Subsequently, the oil is drained from the gear box before despatch. Hence the oil must be filled in these gear boxes before taking any trial. The grade of oil to be used depends on the ambient temperature. The viscosity of the oil to be used for different ambient temperatures is as under:

Ambient Temp
-10 to + 10 o C
5 to 40 o C
30 to 65 o C
40 to 75 o C
Viscosity ISO-VG
100
