The precision planetary gear units of the EP series with floor helical gearing and preloaded dual taper roller bearings assure low-noise synchronism due to their immense load carrying capacity and rigidity even under high load circumstances. The one-piece world carrier and the included needle roller bearings enable the transmitting of high torques. The additional shaft sealing band ensures maximum protection against dust and splash water relative to protection class IP65.

EP Gear’s 800 Series contains a focused selection of compact, durable helical gear drives that offer long-lifestyle performance and simplified maintenance. A broad range of reduction ratios suit a straight broader range of specifications, while a variety of input shaft configurations maximize versatility. In addition, the number of products that enhance this series of gear drives make it a perfect choice for today’s commercial distributor.
The 800 Series offers a functional interchange for ep and other European manufacturers’ helical gear drives,making it uniquely practical for alternative applications.
Four basic sizes 1/6 – 10 HP
Over 40 different ratios 1.5:1 – 71:1 double-reduction ratios 36:1 – 250:1 triple-reduction ratios
Non-flanged and NEMA c-face input styles
Base-mount and result flange-mount models available
Output-shaft diameters from 3/4″ to at least one 1 5/8″
The standard NEMA C-face design will accept any standard NEMA motor, which makes it exceptionally versatile.
Ratios up to 70:1 in just two phases means increased performance and reduced case size.
Accessible oil seals simplify routine product maintenance.
All units could be double sealed on both input and result to withstand the rigors of actually the most demanding applications.
800 Series drives come pre-filled with synthetic lubrication for your unique mounting position.
Sizes 3 and 4 are lubricated for life which promotes trouble-free operation.
Washdown duty models in white-colored or stainless steel epoxy coatings make these gear drives perfect for the most serious Washdown.
Correct angle bevel speed reducers decrease speed and increase torque from the driver end to the driven end in a drive system. They have got a beveled gear that allows the reducer to rotate in both directions and operate with low noise and vibration. They are usually made out of durable, corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel.
Features
Wide variety of accessories and non-standard designs
Single piece casing with high structural stiffness
Benefits
Easy and functional shaft-mounting design
Minimum maintenance requirements
High, reliable and tested performance
Ideal for the heaviest duties

The exclusive usage of the involute helicoid thread form on the worm and gear provides for high efficiencies and long service existence on draglines and shovels. The hardened,ground and polished alloy metal worm develops a easy, work hardened surface on the bronze equipment. For this reason, the worm gears put on in and improve with extented service while various other gears are deteriorating.

Hollow & solid output shafts
Vertical & horizontal mountings
Fan cooled (standard)
Motor mounts
Cast iron or steel housings available
