4 MAINTENANCE WORK
• The MEGATRON
®
MT 3100 S² drive unit is designed to be almost mainte-
nance-free. Nevertheless, the unit should always be used with care to guaran-
tee a long lifetime.
• The attached working chamber contains several wear parts which have to be
checked and/or exchanged regularly depending on the use of the unit, mainly:
o Ball bearings
o Mechanical Seal, Shaft Seal
o O-Rings
o Dispersing Generator
• Keeping these wear parts as spare parts on site is mandatory to avoid longer
interruptions during maintenance and service – see also chapter “spare parts”.
• Before any maintenance work the working chamber of the MEGATRON
®
has
to be rinsed out, emptied completely and cleaned.
