Catalog excerpts

Oil/air cooler BLK ATEX-3GD Drives and hydraulic aggregates are also used in explosive areas in machine construction or raw material production. In hydraulic systems oil transfers power and motion, in drives it’s a vital lubricant. Both as a power transfer medium and lubricant oil is heated by friction losses during operation. Oil/ air coolers stabilise the temperature and are indispensable for systems and drives for consistent power. The temperature further affects the ageing behaviour and the life of oils. BLK ATEX 3GD series coolers are suitable for use in zones 2 (gas) and 22 (dust) and temperature class 3. In addition to adequately protected drive motors they have stainless steel fan housings. ATEX area of application: up to zone 2 and zone 22 T3 Easy to maintain design Compact installation dimensions Low noise emission Broad performance range Rugged cooling matrix Efficient cooling matrixes, an easy to maintain design and noise-optimised fans are additional features of the BLK ATEX series.

BLK ATEX-3GDIntroduction and description Why coolers? There are basically two main concepts in the development of fluid power systems. One is to design systems without using a cooler, and if operational conditions show that the system needs a cooler, install it later at additional costs. This understandably then often calls for compromises, making the system more expensive. The other concept recognizes that a system originally designed with an integrated cooler needs less installation space and is a better choice with respect to construction and system costs. Why Buhler? If an oil/air...

Correction k(visk) Viscosity (cSt) K(visk) Viscosity K(visk) Determining the actual pressure loss 1. Determine Ap from the pressure loss graph for oil flow rate Q and the selected cooler size. 2. Determine the viscosity from the type of oil and temperature. 3. Determine the correction factor k(visk) and multiply by Ap from step 1.
