When ordering, the manufacturer must know the storage time.

4.13.7 Storage at low temperatures
4.13.7.1 Storing machines at temperatures down to -50° C
If machines are stored at temperatures of down to -50° C, then also take into account the
following:
● The normal roller bearing grease of machines is suitable for operating temperatures of
between -30 °C and +130° C. Temperatures down to ‑50° C are harmless for the roller
bearing grease if the machine is non operational or is in storage.
For operation at -50 °C, the bearings have a special grease, e.g. Aeroshell Grease 7.
● Machines with regreasing system must be regreased when commissioning. Double the
amount of grease that is specified on the lubricant plate.
4.13.7.2 Regreasing system
● Machines with regreasing system must be regreased when commissioning. Double the
