Brewery saves energy and improves food compliance
A major UK Brewery, faced with the task of reducing their overall costs, whilst maintaining food grade compliance, has saved GB15000 in energy alone by converting to Klubersynth on elevator gearboxes
We have now succeeded in developing a single grease for use on all bearing lubrication points in a wind turbine installation - The solution to all the above is Kluberplex BEM 41-141.
No more risk of confusion, no expensive inventories, assured extended running times without compromise and, critically, associated cost savings thanks to the Kluber field-proven quality and performance.
The benefits secured by utilising the new Kluberplex BEM 41-141 include: higher reliability of wind turbines due to improved grease performance, trouble-free operation across widest temperature influences, good lubricant pumpability for central lubrication systems, longer service life of bearings due to high wear protection even under vibration, low frictional drag for higher efficiency and cooler running, extreme wear protection due to special additives and easy changeover due to compatibility with existing lubricant.
