Parker EME Lubrication of the guiding system192-510201N1 HLR 2019-04 415.3 Lubrication of the guiding systemBefore working with lubricants please read the respective supplier manuals andadhere to it.Improper or insufficient lubrication or wrong lubricant can cause irreparabledamage to the linear actuator guidance system and result in e.g. higher wear,reduced precision, higher friction and higher noise level. Furthermore, theexpected lifetime may reduce significantly.Linear actuators are lubricated before shipment. In the case of storage ordowntimes of more than 1 year, the guiding system of the linear axis must belubricated before initial operation. For low mileages, the linear axis guide must belubricated at least once a year, even if the lubrication interval has not beenreached.Grease gunTo relubricate the guiding system, use a grease gun suitable for the greasenipples. We recommend a one-hand lubrication press (optionally available, articlenumber see HLR catalogue) with nozzle attachment type D1a4 (DIN3405).Lubrication intervalsMinimum lubrication intervals for grease are influenced by different parameters(time, load ratios, operating loads). Minimum lubrication intervals can be seen inthe following diagram.Figure 11: Lubrication intervals of the guiding system1 Lubrication interval [km]2 Load comparison factor fv** Calculation of the load comparison factor please refer to the HLR catalogue.Lubricant and amount of lubricantHLR070 / HLR080Recommended lubricant - Klüberplex BEM34-132Lubricating amount depending onlubricating nozzle [g] 1.2Lubricating amount per carriage / Linearactuator [g] 2.4Table 12: Lubricant and amount of lubricant
