7.7 Leakage and leak-tightness
Gear units are filled with oil or grease to lubricate the moving parts. Seals prevent the escape of
lubricants. A complete seal is technically not possible, as a certain film of moisture, for example on the
radial shaft sealing rings is normal and advantageous for a long-term seal. In the region of vents,
moisture due to oil may be visible due to the escape of oil mist because of the function. In the case of
grease-lubricated labyrinth seals (Option: Taconite) grease emerges from the sealing gap. This
apparent leak is not a fault.
According to the test conditions according to DIN 3761, the leak is due to the sealing medium.
