Due to the recent application of inverter controlled motors, SFC series is designed for continuous lubricationin variable speed environments.

Even if the cooling fan is balanced , excess vibration can occur during operation.Using an extended fan drive shaft (gearbox low speed shaft), run-out due to fan operation is significantly reduced.

2. Low Vibration Design

1 Year Maintenance free operation.

Cooling Tower specific accessories are standard eqiupment.

Gearbox is drilled and tapped for attachment of externalair breather and oil fill/drain.                                         

The SFC gearbox is designed without protrusions beneath the mounting surface,leading to simple mounting base design and construction.The design also takes into account the use of an optional backstop and pumpto be added without protruding beneath the mounting surface.            

3. Flat Mount Design

Extended Bearing Span

By arranging the mounting bolt holes uniformly about the fan drive shaft, the loadto the gearbox mounting base is transmitted uniformly.

Balanced Mounting Load

1. Selection CriteriaThe SFC Series was specifically designed for the cooling tower environment.

Use the chart to find the correct size based on motor size and reduction ratio.

Maximized Surface Area High Efficiency Gearbox Cooling Fan

3~5dB(A) Noise Reduction From Previous SeriesShaft speed reduction achieved using optimised gear pairs, reducing gear noise. Using FEM analysis, deflection under load is minimized and proper gear tooth contact is maintained.FEM modal analysis is also performed to minimize natural frequency oscillation.

Due to the gearbox location in a cooling tower, minimal airflow from the cooling tower fan reaches it.The SFC gearbox is designed with maximum heat dissipation in mind.

4. Thermally Efficient Design

Internal gearbox inspection possible without draining oildue to inspection cover location above operating oil level.Using internal splash oil lubrication, use of an oil pump andits periodic replacement is not required.
