The EP Greenhouse gear driver is a compact and lightweight reduction gearbox with a limit switch system that’s ideal for assembly of a locally available electric motor. The gearbox is used in manually-controlled or climate-managed ventilation and display screen systems in greenhouses. The quick and easy-to-install EP gear reducer is rainproof and windproof. The geared motor has a high protection class (IP65) and can be used within an ambient temperature of 0-60 °C.
The low-noise reducer for Greenhouse includes a gearwheel transmission and a worm wheel transmission, which are integrated in an aluminum precision housing. The self-braking worm wheel transmitting means that the drive shaft is locked when the reduction geared motor isn’t running. The fully sealed reduction geared motor comes with an expansion chamber with a diaphragm to keep the gear essential oil at a low pressure under all circumstances, even at high temperatures. Thanks to the usage of an expansion chamber, the geared motor can be installed in any placement. There are no limitations, because there is no dependence on a bleed connect. The sealed reduction geared motor keeps the apparatus oil of the reducer in optimum condition for its entire operating lifetime. The geared motor is ideal for discontinuous use, operating class s3-30%, with a maximum activation period of 25 minutes.
The Gear box reduction geared motor comes with an FT85 motor assembly flange, to which the right IEC standard motor can certainly be installed (EN 50347).
The Gear box includes a rotating limit switch system with operating switches and circuit breakers (NC contacts) for turning off at the end positions. The limit change system is installed within an included chamber and is enclosed by 
an impact-resistant plastic-type material cover. The limit change system is obtainable and easy to adjust. The limit change system’s optimum switching range is certainly 40 or 64 revolutions of the drive shaft. The cabling is linked in spring-clip connections. The gear motor has an IP68 M16 x 1.5 cable gland (5-9 mm cable) for the cable feed-through.
The gearbox for greenhouse comes with 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.
