Lubricant compatibility with oil seals

Approval

Explanation

SEW07004_ _13:

A lubricant especially recommended with regard to compatibility with the approved oil seals. The lubricant exceeds the state-of-the-art requirements regarding elastomer compatibility.

Permitted application temperature range of the oil seals

In the low temperature range, oil seals can withstand shaft deflections (e.g. through overhung load) only to a limited extent. Take special care to avoid or limit pulsating and changing radial displacements of the shaft. Contact SEW-EURODRIVE if necessary.
