Heavy Duty Stirrer Units
Heavy Duty stirrer unit incorporates an extended bearing housing to accommodate a larger bottom bearing and increased shaft
size, there by enhancing the unit capacity to absorb the high bending loads imposed during stirrer applications. This gear unit is
compact with facility of top mounted pivoted platform where electric
motor can be directly mounted above the gear unit using belt
tensioning device.

the oil bath while oil is pumped to the top wheel shaft bearing by
mean of a built in plunger mechanism. All exposed parts other

SUPER SERIES IN WORM GEAR UNITS
SPECIFICATIONS
designed for this duty. However, complete details should
be given to us for confirmation. In cases of heavy
overhung loads, an extra roller bearing can be provided.
GENERAL
Elecon single reduction gear units are the result of
many years of experience. Completely re-designed gear
case with liberal ribbing increases heat dissipating area,
streamlined sump carrying more oil and larger capacity
of fan enhance the thermal rating of the gearbox. All
this means that the continuous load carrying capacity is
increased without substantial rise in temperature.
WHEEL SHAFT
The wheel shaft is made of high tensile carbon steel.
It is of large diameter to carry the torsional as well as
bending loads which may be induced by overhung drives.
LUBRICATION
No more opening of gearbox for hand changing, just
replace the fan and fancowl from one end to other end
of worm shaft.
Lubrication to gears and bearings is by splash of oil
from the sump. Thus, no special care is required
except for the occasional topping up of the oil to the
required level. A large oil filler-cum-breather and
inspection cover is provided together with a drain
plug and ventilator. Neoprene lip-type oil seals are fitted
on input and output shaft.
DESIGN STANDARDS
Wherever applicable, British as well as Indian standards
are used. Worm conforms to casehardening alloy steel,
worm wheel conforms to phosphor-bronze PB2-C as
per British Standard B.S. 1400, while gear case
conforms to C. I. grade FG 220 and for heavy duty FG
250, Indian Standard I.S. 210.
For very low input speed below 50 rpm. and heavy loads
in sizes larger than 14" size forced lubrication is required.
In such cases Elecon must be consulted.
GEAR CASE
COOLING
Gear case is of streamlined design, rugged in
construction, made of close-grain cast iron. It is
completely oil-tight, dust-proof and capable of being
installed in the open without a separate cover. The
faces and bores are accurately bored and machined on
latest precision machines to ensure perfect alignment
and interchangeability.
Air cooling is effected by means of standard polypropylene or metal fans which direct a continuous flow of
air over the ribbed surface of the gear unit. The fan is
designed to operate in both direction of rotation, and is
so arranged in conjunction with the ribbing on the gear
unit as to allow maximum heat dissipation.
WORM/WORM WHEEL
HOLDBACK
The worm is made of case-hardening alloy steel,
carburised, ground and polished and is integral with the
shaft. Bearing journals are accurately ground. Worm
wheel is made of centrifuglly cast phosphor-bronze
rims, shrink fitted and brazed with C.I. centres.
Elecon Sprag type holdback can be fitted on all sizes of
gears to prevent reverse rotation. In cases where holdback is requied, the direction of rotation of the shaft
should be mentioned.
Worms are generated on special-purpose worm milling
machines, gas carburised and ground on automatic
work grinders.
POWER RATINGS
The ratings indicated in the catalogue holds good for 12
hours of continuous running under uniform load being
driven by electric motor. They give minimum gear life of
26,000 hours, subject to limitation of maximum oil
temperature of 100oC under full load, 20oC ambient.
Worm wheels are hobbed on precision hobbing
machines with high accuracy hobs. Each and every
wheel is checked to match with the master worms to
ensure complete interchangeability.
OVERLOADS
Right-hand threads are provided, unless otherwise
specified.
All the components of the reduction gears are so
designed that they can withstand.
BEARINGS
* 100 per cent overload for 15 seconds
* 50 per cent overload for one minute
The worms and worm wheels are supported on ball or
roller anti-friction bearings of ample margin of safety to
allow adequate journal as well as thrust loads. Overhung
loads arising out of sprocket or pinion drive are generally
permissible because the gear case and bearings are
* 40 per cent overload for 30 minutes and
* 25 per cent overload for two hours.

Super
NU Series MODULAR WORM GEAR
UNIVERSAL MOUNTING
Further to successful launching of ELECON NU Modular worm gearboxes, "SUPER NU" series is one
step ahead in WORM GEAR TECHNOLOGY.
A combination of present-day concepts, analytical calculations with the help of CAD (Computer Aided
Design) carried out on single part use of very latest CNC machine tools plus systematic checks on
materials and workmanship, give this series of gearboxes a marked degree of reliability.
Single piece universal casing having flanges top and bottom side and also provision for a supporting
flange make it possible to have the universal mounting positions for gearboxes such as underdriven,
overdriven and vertical. The internal components are, therefore, interchangeable for all the mounting
positions.
Quick change of mounting positions from underdriven to overdriven and vice versa merely by putting the
unit upside down and replacing the positions of drain plug, breather plug and oil level indicator.
Comprehensive maintenance of stock and faster delivery can be achieved due to adoption of
interchangeably principle. Robust compact and streamlined design with ample thermal capacities.
Iden ical double
input shaft extensions.
Universal case, internally ribbed to
ensure sufficient strength and
rigidity for all applications.
Centrifugally cast phosphor
bronze rims.
Bearings and oilseals are
to ISO proportions - replacements are available
world-wide.
Worm threads are
profile ground and
super finished
Hold Back can be fitted
integrally on worm shaft

See Page No. 9 for actual service factor to nature of load and duration of operation.
For rating marked * consult ELECON
Ratios and output speeds are nominal. Exact ratios are listed on Page No. 30

OVERHUNG LOADS :
Whenever a sprocket, gear, sheave or pulley is mounted on the output shaft, a
calculation should be made to determine the overhung load in Newtons on the shaft,
using the formula :
KW x 9550 x K
P
=
N x R
Where, P
= equivalent overhung load in Newtons
KW = power carried by shaft in Kilo Watts
N
= r.p.m. of the shaft
R
= pitch radius of sprocket, pinion, sheave or pulley in meter
K
= factor

The calculated equivalent overhung load should be
compared with the permissible values given in the table.

Size 1 5/8 to 3 under FILL and FORGET concept. i.e., Factory filled synthetic lubricant for lifetime lubrication
For higher sizes 3.54 to 17 first filling of oil is not supplied with the gear unit.
First change of oil should be made after 500 hrs. of operation.
Subsequent oil change must be made after every 3000 hours of operation. The interval should not exceed
12 months.

OPTIONAL STANDARD FEATURES
1.
SPRAG Holdbacks for Non-reversible Drives
ELECON gear unit can be supplied, fitted with sprag holdback for non-reversible drives it is essential that
the load or driven mechanism is prevented from running backwards after the driving motor is stripped e.g.
inclined conveyors, elevator, winches etc.
The sprag holdback is incorporated on the fan end side of the high speed shaft. Visually and dimensionally
the ELECON unit is unchanged. The hold back can be provided for either direction of rotation and the same
should be specified when ordering.
2.
Base Frame
Fabricated steel base frames are also supplied when requires.
3.
Steel Gearcases
ELECON gear unit can be supplied with cast or fabricated steel cases for heavy duty application when
loadings on the housings are in excess of the capacities of standard cast iron cases.
4.
Wormwheel construction
Standard worm wheel comprise phosphourous bronze rims continuous welded to cast iron centres, where
the duties demand rims are welded to steel centres.
5.
Slow speed shafts
ELECON gear unit can be supplied with special slow speed shafts where required, These include units with
special single extension, double extended shafts to the standard dimensions listed in this catalogue or
special double ended extension. Additionally single or double ended shaft can be supplied in high tensile
steel to heavy duty applications.
