Problems
Industrial operations often struggle with large or heavily loaded gearboxes and the associated gear oil life. Gearbox life is directly impacted by gear oil additive depletion, micropitting and macropitting wear, foam and water ingress and accumulated sludge that can plug filters. Inadequate lubrication can lead to reduced gearbox performance and operational efficiency and increased wear, maintenance, repair and downtime costs.
Solution
AMSOIL Industrial Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil (PT) is a premium synthetic polyalphaolefin (PAO) gear oil engineered to provide maximum performance and protection in industrial gearboxes operating under severe conditions.
It provides outstanding resistance to scuffing, wear and micropitting fatigue on gear surfaces operating under extreme pressures and shock loads. It is fortified with advanced additive technology to deliver outstanding overall performance in areas critical to industrial applications, including water resistance, filterability, long-term foam control, rapid air release, rust and corrosion protection and paint and seal compatibility. It also provides exceptional thermal stability and oxidation resistance to fulfill the long oil-life requirements of industrial gearbox manufacturers.
AMSOIL Industrial Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Lube can extend oil life up to 11 years with a qualified oil maintenance program. By increasing equipment protection that reduces maintenance and repairs and extends equipment life, plants can save millions of dollars in operational costs.*
*Based on one customer’s experience using AMSOIL Industrial ISO 320 Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil (PTN) in 50 large industrial gearboxes for 10 years. Your actual savings will vary depending on your current oil, equipment and maintenance practices.
Maximum wear protection
AMSOIL Industrial Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil is highly resistant to viscosity shear under extreme stress. It provides excellent film strength over a broad temperature range for superior gear and bearing protection. Its excellent foam resistance and air-release properties also ensure strong fluid film thickness to reduce gear and bearing wear.
Excellent filterability
The additive package contains no solids, allowing filtration of AMSOIL Industrial Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil down to 5 microns using full-flow filter system, and 3 microns using bypass filtration, for maximum filter life and oil cleanliness.
High compatibility
AMSOIL Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil is available in 150, 220, 320, 390 and 460 viscosities and is used in more than 40,000 heavily loaded gearboxes worldwide. It is compatible with common internal-coating materials, seals and elastomers to help prevent leaks and extend seal, hose and gasket life. It also meets or exceeds the stringent performance and extended oil-life requirements of multiple gearbox and turbine original equipment manufacturers, including ZF,* NGC,* Moventas,* Flender,* Winergy,* GE* Renewable Energy, SIEMENS* Gamesa Renewable Energy, Vestas* and more.
Applications
Use AMSOIL Industrial Synthetic Power Transmission EP Gear Oil in heavy-duty industrial gear drives that require extreme-pressure (EP) protection, including steel-on-steel helical, bevel and spur gears with surface-hardened tooth metallurgies, such as those found in the wind turbine, textile, paper, steel, cement, plastic and lumber industries.
