Operating instructions for actuators type AB with SMARTCON control unit
OM-ENGLISH-CSC-V2.08-2019.11.07 15 Training
Example:
Extremely low OP + extremely low ambient temperature + high revolution + utilization factor 87%
⇒0.8 x 0.9 x 0.8 x 0.9 = 0.51 reduction factor.
Lubricant maintenance interval ⇒ 10 years x 0.51 = 5.1 years (62 months).
WARNING: A thusly calculated maintenance interval does not apply to the maintenance of the out-
put type A (threaded bushing), nor to the maintenance of the linear and spindle actuator units. These
must be regularly re-greased (at least once every six months) at the lubricating nipples (see section
14.3, page 48)!
During actuator maintenance, the old lubricants must be thoroughly removed and replaced by fresh ones.
No mixing of different makes of lubricant is permitted!
The quantities needed for lubricant service can be seen from the table below.

When lubricating precision components, such quantities of lubricant are to be used as to ensure fine moistening
of the sliding surfaces.
