Gear Motors For Greenhouse

The EP Greenhouse gear reduction motor Gearbox is a compact and lightweight reduction gearbox with an integrated limit switch system that is suitable for assembly of a locally available electric electric motor. The Gearbox is used in manually-controlled or climate-managed ventilation and display systems in greenhouses. The quick and easy-to-installEP Gearbox is usually rainproof and windproof. The Gearbox has a high protection course (IP65) and can be used within an ambient temperature of 0-60 °C.

The low-noise Gearbox for Greenhouse includes a gearwheel transmission and a worm wheel transmission, which are integrated in an aluminium precision housing. The self-braking worm wheel transmission means that the drive shaft is definitely locked when the reduction gearbox isn’t running. The completely sealed reduction gearbox has an expansion chamber with a diaphragm to keep the gear oil at a minimal pressure under all situations, even at high temperatures. Thanks to the utilization of an expansion chamber, the Gearbox could be installed in any position. There are no restrictions, since there is no need for a bleed plug. The sealed reduction gearbox keeps the gear essential oil of the Gearbox in ideal condition because of its entire operating life time. The Gearbox is ideal for discontinuous use, operating course s3-30%, with a maximum activation time of 25 minutes.

The Gear box reduction gearbox has an FT85 motor assembly flange, to which the right IEC standard motor can easily be installed (EN 50347).

The Gear box includes a rotating limit switch system with operating switches and circuit breakers (NC contacts) for turning off at the end positions. The limit change system is installed in an included chamber and is certainly enclosed by an impact-resistant plastic cover. The limit switch system is accessible and simple to adjust. The limit change system’s optimum switching range can be 40 or 64 revolutions of the drive shaft. The cabling is linked in spring-clip connections. The Gearbox has an IP68 M16 x 1.5 cable gland (5-9 mm cable) for the cable feed-through.

The Gearbox for greenhouse comes with 16 teeth 5/8”x3/8” sprockets, keys and fasteners. The accompanying chain couplings and assembly plates are available as accessories.
