Gear Operator FAQ

What maintenance does a gear operator require?

Our gear operators are designed for minimal maintenance. We recommend inspecting seals and lubrication every 6 months under normal operating conditions, or every 3 months in harsh environments. The lubrication interval is approximately 5,000 cycles or annually, whichever comes first. Always use manufacturer-recommended lubricants to ensure optimal performance.

How do I select the right gear operator for my application?

Selecting the appropriate gear operator involves considering several factors: required torque output (including safety factors), operating environment (temperature, exposure to elements), duty cycle (continuous or intermittent operation), and mounting requirements. Our GO-100 series is ideal for light-duty applications, while the GO-500 handles heavy industrial loads. For custom requirements, our engineering team can provide consultation.

Can gear operators be used in explosive environments?

Yes, we offer ATEX-certified gear operators for hazardous locations. These models feature spark-resistant materials, special sealing arrangements, and undergo rigorous testing. The EX series meets ATEX Zone 1 and Zone 2 requirements, with additional certifications available for specific regional standards. Please consult our technical specifications for the correct model selection in explosive atmospheres.
