1. Producte acabatview
ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150 is a synthetic gear oil engineered for a wide range of industrial enclosed gearing and plain or rolling element bearings that require an Extreme Pressure (EP) gear oil. This lubricant offers superb oxidation and thermal stability, coupled with excellent low-temperature performance across diverse applications. It maintains protection under varying load and speed conditions.
The Gear-SYN EP 150 formulation includes outstanding EP additives to provide a protective layer against shock loading, proving particularly effective where micropitting of gear teeth has been a concern. Its low friction characteristics contribute to lower operating temperatures and enhanced gear efficiency. An effective demulsifier rapidly separates water from the oil, preventing foaming, maintaining oil film integrity, and reducing the risk of corrosion and premature oxidation.
Característiques i avantatges clau:
- Outstanding resistance to high temperature thermal stress and oxidation, leading to longer oil life and exceptional lubrication.
- Excellent fluidity at low temperatures and a low coefficient of friction at all temperatures, facilitating easier start-ups and energy-efficient operation.
- Unique combination of synthetic base oils and antiwear additives ensures low gear and bearing wear, including resistance to micropitting.
- Special additives minimize corrosion of bronze and copper metals while protecting iron and steel components from oxidation.
- Longer oil life, extended gear and bearing life, and excellent lubricity contribute to reduced maintenance costs and greater operating efficiency.

4. Configuració i preparació
Proper preparation is essential for optimal performance and longevity of your equipment when using ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150.
- Inspecció d'equips: Before applying the lubricant, ensure the gear system or bearing housing is clean and free from contaminants, old oil residues, or debris.
- Drain Old Lubricant: Completely drain any existing lubricant from the system. If switching from a different type of lubricant, consider flushing the system according to equipment manufacturer guidelines to prevent incompatibility issues.
- Comprovació de les juntes i els segells: Inspect all seals and gaskets for wear or damage. Replace any compromised components to prevent leaks and maintain system integrity.
- Determine Fill Volume: Consult your equipment's service manual for the correct lubricant fill volume and level indicators.
- Emmagatzematge: Store ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150 in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
Follow these guidelines for effective operation with ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150:
- Farciment: Carefully pour the ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150 into the designated fill points of the equipment, ensuring the correct level is reached as specified by the manufacturer. Avoid overfilling.
- Execució inicial: After filling, operate the equipment at a reduced load or speed for a short period to allow the lubricant to circulate thoroughly and coat all moving parts.
- Monitoritzar el rendiment: During initial operation and subsequent use, regularly monitor the equipment for unusual noises, excessive heat, or leaks.
- Interval de temperatura: This lubricant is designed for a wide range of operating temperatures. However, always ensure your equipment operates within its specified temperature limits.
- Compatibilitat: While ELBALUBES Gear-SYN EP 150 is a high-performance synthetic oil, avoid mixing it with other types of lubricants unless compatibility has been verified by a professional or the equipment manufacturer.
