Isomag Bearing Isolators Seal Falk 2080Y2-A Gearbox For Expera Paper
Expera Specialty Solutions, in Kaukauna, WI found Isomag magnetic bearing seals to be the perfect solution for their Falk 2080Y2-A gearbox. This double reduction parallel shaft speed reducer was used wood yard and experienced problems of egress of lubrication from the bearing housing, eventually causing the gearbox to fail. The one weakness of this Falk gearbox is the lip seals that are installed. Oil seals wear out in about 6-8 months on continuous use. Then the contamination of, or loss of lubrication from the bearing house starts. On top of that, the lip seal wears a grove into the shaft, making it necessary to either refurbish the shaft or get a new one when it's time to repair.
When Expera Specialty Solutions specified Isomag bearing isolators for their gearbox in 2013, they were very happy with their decision. The Falk gearbox has been running leak free and contamination free since then.
