Castrol Optigear ALR X1
High performance gear oilDescriptionCastrol Optigear™ ALR X1 is a high performance synthetic gear oil designed for lubrication of robot gear boxes. Basedon a combination of additives to provide excellent bearing performance, good load carrying and outstanding thermalstability. This synthetic based gear oil is also designed to give an extremely low sludge forming propensity as well asgood elastomer/seal compatibility with minimal interaction.Optigear ALR X1 has also been coloured yellow in order for Robot manufacturers and End Users to immediately visuallydetect any leakages.ApplicationCastrol Optigear™ ALR X1 is designed for use in Robot gear box systems where oil lubrication is preferred to greasedue to high speeds and ease of change over. ALR X1 is intended too extend oil change intervals versus currentcommercially available products allowing for lower downtime and increased maintenance intervals for oil lubricatedsystems.Extended elastomer/seal compatibility testing highlights the low interaction of Optigear ALR X1 with common sealmaterials, critical for reduced or no leakage within oil lubricated robots.Optigear ALR X1 also has a very low pour point and excellent viscosity and temperature characteristics, allowing use inboth low and high temperature applicationsOptigear ALR X1 is classified as follows:DIN Classification is CLPOptigear ALR X1 meets the requirements of:DIN 51517 Part 3AdvantagesGood thermal and oxidative stability provides reliable operation and extended operating life when compared tomineral oil based products.Inherently high viscosity index (VI) makes the product suitable for operations operating over a wide temperaturerange.Good anti-wear and load carrying abilities minimises gear wear and prolongs gear tooth life.Reduced down time through water separation and demulsification characteristics resulting in prolongedlubricant life and increased equipment reliability.PAO based lubricant that provides good compatibility with seals, paints and mineral oil based lubricants
