The EP Greenhouse Gearbox is a compact and lightweight reduction gearbox with a limit switch system that’s ideal for assembly of a locally available electric electric motor. The Gearbox is used in manually-managed or climate-managed ventilation and screen systems in greenhouses. The quick and easy-to-installEP Gearbox is rainproof and windproof. The Gearbox includes a high protection course (IP65) and can be used in an ambient temperature of 0-60 °C.
The low-noise Gearbox for Greenhouse has a gearwheel transmission and a worm wheel transmission, which are integrated within an aluminium precision housing. The self-braking worm wheel transmitting means that the drive shaft can be locked when the decrease gearbox isn’t running. The completely sealed reduction gearbox comes with an expansion chamber with a diaphragm to keep carefully the gear essential oil at a minimal pressure under all situations, even at high temperature ranges. Thanks to the use of an expansion chamber, the Gearbox could be installed in any position. There are no restrictions, since there is no dependence on a bleed plug. The sealed reduction gearbox keeps the apparatus essential oil of the Gearbox in optimum condition for its entire operating life time. The Gearbox is ideal for Gear motors for Greenhouse discontinuous use, working course s3-30%, with a maximum activation time of 25 minutes.
The Gear box reduction gearbox has an FT85 motor assembly flange, on to which a suitable IEC standard motor can certainly be installed (EN 50347).
The Gear box has a rotating limit switch system with operating switches and circuit breakers (NC contacts) for turning off by the end positions. The limit switch system is installed within an included chamber and can be enclosed by an impact-resistant plastic-type material cover. The limit change system is accessible 
and easy to adjust. The limit switch system’s maximum switching range is usually 40 or 64 revolutions of the drive shaft. The cabling is linked in spring-clip connections. The Gearbox comes with an IP68 M16 x 1.5 cable gland (5-9 mm cable) for the cable feed-through.
The Gearbox for greenhouse includes 16 teeth 5/8”x3/8” sprockets, keys and fasteners. The accompanying chain couplings and assembly plates are available as accessories.
Maximum drive torque of 150 Nm or 450 Nm.
Rotational speeds of 3 or 5 rpm for a mains frequency of 50 Hz or 3.6 or 6 rpm for a mains frequency of 60 Hz in case of app of 4-pole electric motor.
