Step 8: Checking the thermal rating

Thermal rating of the gear unit – PT

 

 

PT

Thermal rating of the gear unit

PTH

kW

Nominal thermal rating of the gear unit. The values in the selection tables depend on the type of cooling, mounting position, and lubrication type.

The operating power PK1 must not exceed the thermal rating PT (PK1 ≤ PT). Additional cooling is required if PK1 > PT

141.4 kW > 103 kW

→ The thermal rating at 40 °C is not sufficient without additional cooling.
