What is the main differences of LE, compared with other lubricant

producers ?

Studies shows that the lubricant

cost, represents only 2-3 % of the total maintenanc

e cost

LE uses 100 % Paraffinic base oil

Synthe/c Base oil

LE adds unique-proprietary addi/ves to reduce fric/on, heat, wear, increase water separa/on, tachiness, heat resistance etc.

Almasol Monolec Duolec Quinplex

DUOLEC is the newest LE proprietary additive incorporating revolutionary technology designed specifically for use in LE gear lubricants. It is a temperature activated, dual acting, liquid additive that imparts special properties and synergies to the LE Products in which it is used. DUOLEC increases lubricant film strength and protects metal surfaces outperforming at

Under normal to light conditions of speed and load, two metal surfaces are effectively separated by a lubricant film. This is known as hydrodynamic lubrication. An increase in load or a decrease in speed reduces the lubricant film allowing metal to metal contact and raising the temperature of the contact zone due to frictional heat. As a result, the EHD and mixed film antiwear components of DUOLEC

How it Works! o Grease is delivered to the Aluminum collar via a high volume

grease pump that can deliver lubricant at pressures up to 5000PSI.

o The Collar contains polyurethane seals which seal against the wire rope allowing the grease time to penetrate.

o Scrapers at each end of the collar remove old lubricant while also flattening broken wires and protecting the seals.

o Grease application is adjusted via a lubricant control valve which adjusts the grease volume.

o Wire ropes are pulled through the collar. o Excess lubricant is collected. o Use of a Viper rope cleaner pre-cleans ropes prior to them entering the collar.

Superior Protection for Wire Ropes www.viperwrl.com phone: +61 (2) 9636 5655

Viper recommend that wire ropes be physically measured prior to ordering seals and scrapers as ropes in service may vary in size. Scrapers are supplied slightly larger than the actual wire rope size to allow for rope flexing.

Viper seals are designed to have some interference with the rope, depending on its size and type, with an interference of up to 3mm allowable for standard 6 & 8 strand ropes. For compact, non-rotating or wireline type ropes which do not have valleys, a maximum interference of 1mm is recommended as these ropes do not allow for the same amount of seal deflection within the collar.

Rope Cleaner (VRC) Selection Viper Rope Cleaners enable the removal of contamination or built up old lubricant from the wire rope prior to lubrication, improving the effectiveness of the lubrication process via the Viper WRL.

It is critical that all ropes be physically measured prior to selecting and ordering the VRC, as ropes size may vary in service.

Available for 6 and 8 strand ropes in a wide range of sizes, the following tables allow for the quick and easy selection of the correct VRC to suit your specific requirements.

RIGHT: Smooth Bore Rope Cleaner

For certain types of wire ropes where the standard Viper Rope Cleaner is not suitable, the Viper Smooth Bore rope cleaner is available. The Smooth Bore Rope Cleaner would typically be used on those ropes with a large number of outer strands, some non-rotational ropes, ROV cables, etc, where the valleys between the strands are minimal and do not readily facilitate a standard Viper Rope Cleaner.

The illustrations show how to measure a wire rope correctly.

Slewing Bearings

Protect your investmentPremature failure is a common fate for large-diameter (e.g., 8 to 10) bearings in heavy-duty applications where rotations are frequent. In big rotating equipment such as cranes, excavators and tunnel boring machines, a slewing ring bearing must simultaneously handle a complex load spectrum that covers diverse combinations of thrust, radial and tilting moment loading.

Fortunately, theres an easy way to protect your investment in these custom-engineered bearings. Its called regular maintenance, and it can prevent 96% of slewing ring bearing failures. To maximize bearing life, simply follow these tips raceway and gear lubrication, torque checks on bolts, and seal inspection and be alert for four warning signs of potential bearing problems.

Seals

Bearing Lubrication Bolts

Gear Lubrication

Bearing lubricationA bearing should be lubricated at regular intervals with heavy-duty, extreme-pressure grease. Apply a liberal shot to the fittings around the bearings circumference at the interval recommended in the operators manual.

Slowly-rotating equipment or oscillating applications (e.g., backhoes, excavators, cranes) should be re-lubricated about every 100 hours of operation. More frequent lubrication every day or even every eight hours may be needed on equipment that moves rapidly or rotates continuously, such as trenchers and boring machines.

While adding grease, the bearings should be rotated to spread the grease throughout. Pump it in until you see the old grease squeeze past the seal; this is called purging. Purged grease carries contaminants out of the bearing. Rub some between your thumb and forefinger if you feel grit or metal chips, you may have a bearing problem.

Grease tends to dry out over long periods of time, allowing condensation to form within a bearing. You can avoid this by introducing grease at least every six months, even when the equipment is sitting idle.
