Limitorque Motor Operator Grease/Oil Leaks

Problem

In Limitorque Motor Operators with time the oil separates from the grease causing nagging oil leaks, due to weeping of the oil and the inadequate sealing stress typically provided. Additionally the standard gasket material is not compressible requiring numerous thicknesses and shims to properly set clearances in torque switch. “Longlife” grease appears to leak more than previous greases.

Solution

ePTFE gaskets such as Gore Powergrade require lower stresses to seal and stops the oil weeping, preventing these oil leaks.
