Regreasing
Procedure
1. Set the lowest possible speed.
2. Grease the bearings at the lowest possible speed with the specified amount of grease.
You have greased the bearings.
❒
The recommended re-lubricating intervals relate to normal loads:
● Operation at speeds in accordance with the rating plate data
● Low-vibration operation, see Chapter "Vibration resistance (Page 146)"
● Use of the specified roller bearing greases
Option +V07 "Special grease for low speeds"
For option +V07 "Special grease for low speeds", for shaft heights 150 and 200, you require
option K40 "Relubrication device". Motors of shaft height 280 are equipped with a
relubrication device as standard. You do not require option K40 for these motors.
For motors with an average speed smaller than 100 rpm, you need the option +V07.
You can calculate the average operating speed n
m
by the following formula:
Time percentage of the bearing load
1
n
You therefore calculate an average speed from the different speeds according to their time
percentages.
Special versions
Unfavorable factors (e.g. effects of mounting/installation, speeds, special modes of operation
or high mechanical loads) may require special measures.
Contact your local Siemens office, specifying the prevailing general conditions.
