An Ounce of Prevention: Minimizing Gearbox Lubricant Contamination
Regal Rexnord
In many industrial gearbox applications, it is imperative that contamination is not introduced to the end products. Such contamination can have significant safety, waste, and financial implications. Similarly, it is important to protect the gearbox from external contamination to maintain optimal performance and uptime. The purpose of this whitepaper is to outline and identify the requirements of a gearbox lubrication system that minimizes the potential for contamination and aligns with the overall theory: “an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure.”
