In any industrial environment where time equals money, the less time you spend maintaining and repairing gearboxes, the better. And when it comes to easy maintenance, it doesn’t get much better than the P4 line of standardized Hansen gear reducers. These top-notch drives offer several features that minimize maintenance and allow for speedy repairs.
With a P4 Hansen gearbox, repair and maintenance are much easier than with just about any other gear unit on the market. Not only does the P4 drive boast a minimal weight and maximum maneuverability, but it’s designed in such a way that allows for shorter and simpler maintenance procedures. Benefits of the P4 Hansen gear reducer include:
Split housings. Whether you use the P4 for a horizontal or vertical application, the housing’s horizontal split lets you easily open the unit and inspect your Hansen gearbox, repair problems, and perform any necessary maintenance on the spot.
Oil-lock seal. With the P4 Hansen gear reducer, a maintenance-free oil-lock seal comes standard on high-speed shaft extensions. The seal is engineered to be oil-tight for life, which means it will never require maintenance.
Easy-access inspection cover. With its easy-to-remove inspection cover and O-seal located above the oil level, technicians can perform quick lube checks without any oil drainage.
Rounded design. The rounded external design of this gear reducer prevents dirt and grime from building up on the housing.
These are just a few of the features that make P4 Hansen gear reducers a versatile and time-saving choice for a wide range of applications.
