Well lubricated runs longer

Conveyor chain, roller chain, flyer chain, hollow bolt chain, long link chain, accumulation conveyor chain, scraper chain... If you compare a chain that is used exclusively for a transmission with a chain that moves a conveyor belt, you quickly realize that not all chains are the same. Chains differ in form and function, in design, size and material, depending on the area of application and conditions of use. In everyday production, chains are very often equipped with specially manufactured add-on parts or paired with a wide variety of materials. In short: the number of different chain types including variations is in the tens of thousands.

To ensure that your chain runs as long as possible and, above all, smoothly, it is therefore important to find exactly the lubricant that is suitable for your respective chain type. In addition to load, speed and size, the decision criteria are material and operating conditions. A chain made of hardened steel or stainless steel requires a different lubricant than a chain that has an anti-wear or special coating. Likewise, for example, chains that run in an oil bath should be treated differently from open-running chains in terms of lubrication. Speaking of treatment. A good chain lubricant lubricates the chain from the inside and not from the outside.

These are the properties that lubricants for chains must have

  1. Good penetration and creeping ability
  2. High adhesion
  3. High corrosion protection
  4. In the high-temperature range: good temperature and evaporation stability

Advantages of regular care and maintenance with a suitable lubricant

  1. Wear protection, long chain life
  2. Friction reduction, improved friction behavior, more efficient performance
  3. Less downtime
  4. Cost reduction

These lubricants are suitable for chains

Estar Hochtemperaturkettenöle

Estar 125 & 250 Super Plus

This oil is specially developed for use in conveyor chains of furnaces and dryers with a single pass of the heat-treated product. The temperatures can be !permanent! up to 280°C. It significantly reduces friction and thus wear. Conventional chain oil would burn very quickly at temperatures above 80°C and produce hard, wear-promoting residues. Many high-temperature chain oils start at 200°C, but Estar 125 / 250 Plus does exactly what the user expects.

  1. Little to no smoke
  2. Good stability at high temperatures
  3. Low evaporation, and thus high yield
  4. Good, fast penetration into the chain to where the lubricant is mainly needed
  5. Gentle operation with little or no wear
  6. Due to the extreme lubricating effect, it also reduces the current consumption of the drive motors by up to 70%, which is particularly noticeable in large engines. It is compatible with all installed lubrication systems

In contrast to most other high-temperature chain oils, Estar 125 / 250 Super Plus is a modern lubricant based on the latest active ingredient technology. It is constantly being developed and improved with the knowledge and experience of our application engineers. With this high-temperature chain oil, you get the highest lubricant technology with maximum effectiveness at an interesting cost. A consumable lubricant that pays off in any case. All users can testify to this.

Estar 125 / 250 Super Plus is available in the viscosity classes ISO VG 125 & 250 and is supplied in the containers 4.5 kg, 18 kg, 190 kg drum and 900 kg IBC.

Chains with side tabs in a pile. From a tribological point of view, chains are difficult and often a challenge.

Lubrilog LYF Series

This chain fluid is used when the chain is exposed to extreme chemical or radioactive and, if necessary, additional thermal stress. Physically/chemically, it is the last alternative before no lubrication at all or dry lubrication. It consists of perfluorinated polymers. Due to the high quality, consumption is optimally adapted to the chain. The entry into the chain is carried out with a non-flammable solvent Lubrilog SF 90 on the same basis.

Properties

  1. Maximum stability up to a temperature of 300°C
  2. chemically inert, non-toxic
  3. non-flammable, non-flammable
  4. Resistant to water / steam / acids / alkalis / oxygen / blasting
  5. NSF H1 approved, food-safe

The fluids are crystal clear like water, but have a resistance like stainless steel

Adhesive Oil Viscol FS 68

This chain oil was developed due to the inadequacy of existing chain oils. The aim was to minimise the conspicuously rapid wear at high forces and the influence of process water. Viscol FS 68 combines contrasting properties. It penetrates the chain well and still builds up a sticky, water-resistant lubricating film. The result is up to four times the service life of the chain with a simultaneous high reduction in current consumption. The high efficiency makes it possible to reduce consumption by up to 75% and thus reduces the costs in terms of service life, energy consumption and lubricant quantity 3-fold.

Properties

  1. Good penetration
  2. Excellent wear protection
  3. Long service life
  4. Water and steam resistant
  5. Good corrosion protection
  6. Due to the extreme lubricating effect, it also reduces the current consumption of the drive motors by up to 70%, which is particularly noticeable in large engines.
  7. Compatible with all common lubrication systems installed

Tunnel oven for baked goods. In this case, white breads on a width of 2 m come out of the oven continuously. The lubricants in the oven must not only be temperature-resistant, but also food-safe according to NSF H1.

Chain fluid Ecobiol 220 NF for food production

The synthetic fluid based on ester oils is characterized by high durability and minimal evaporation. Obtaining NSF H1 approval also requires chemical-technical compromises for this lubricant. The focus of Ecobiol 220 NF is on the low smoke development, which only sets in very late at high temperatures. The added white solids serve to minimise the amount of lubricant without neglecting wear protection. In the vast majority of cases, the improbable but possible contact of residues with the product through the white color is unproblematic.

Properties

  1. Water and steam resistant
  2. Good wear protection
  3. Suitable up to a temperature of 250°C
  4. Low evaporation
  5. transparent and odourless
  6. NSF H1 approved, food-safe

Chain oil Ecobiol NB 310 for bakery production

Special dry lubricant that is applied in liquid form, whereby the carrier evaporates quickly. High running speeds require unusually high temperatures. The use of liquid high-temperature chain oils is ruled out from temperatures around 250°C due to smoke development and evaporation. In these cases, lubrication with a white dry lubricant is a cost-effective alternative to the Lubrilog LY F 270 HT with low wear at the same time.The high adhesion of the solid components enables long relubrication intervals. Stick-slip and micro-welding are prevented at temperatures up to 750°C. It can be easily conveyed in all common automatic lubricant systems with agitators.

Properties

  1. Water and steam resistant
  2. uniform dry anti-wear film
  3. High adhesion
  4. suitable for temperatures up to 750°C
  5. NSF H1 approved, food-safe
  6. No dehomogenization of the solid particles
  7. White to beige residues
