Lubricant change intervals

It might be necessary to change the oil more frequently when using special designs or under more severe/aggressive ambient conditions.

INFORMATION

Mineral CLP lubricants and synthetic lubricants based on PAO oils (polyalphaolefin) are used for lubrication. The synthetic lubricant CLP HC (according to DIN 51502) shown in the following figure corresponds to the PAO oils.

INFORMATION

SEW‑EURODRIVE recommends that the gear unit oil is analyzed regularly (see chapter Checking the oil consistency) to optimize the lubricant change intervals.
