Mounting Instruction - SNL30, SNL31 and SNL32 With Labyrinth Seals (TS) - EN 2008

This document provides instructions for mounting SNL housings with labyrinth seals on shaft bearings. Key steps include: cleaning and preparing the shaft and mounting surfaces, positioning the housing bases and loosely attaching bolts, installing bearings and seals on the shaft, inserting the shaft assembly into the housing bases, tightening cap bolts and attachment bolts to the specified torques, and inserting O-rings into the labyrinth seals. Tables provide information on cap bolt torques, attachment bolt torques, and recommended grease quantities.

Important general data:

Shaft Direct mounting Depends on the application


Sleeve mounting h9/IT5
Supporting Flatness IT7 - IT8
Surface roughness Ra ≤ 12,5 µm
Cap bolts Please note that the housings are supplied with the cap bolts partly unscrewed to make it more
easy to remove cap when mounting bearing. After mounting it is most important to tighten the cap
bolts to correct tightening torque, if not the bearing seating tolerance in housing will not remain
within the specification.

When relubrication from the side of the bearing is required, e.g. make sure that the appropriate torque was maintained.
for CARB toroidal roller bearings, the housing must be positioned
so that the grease fitting is on the opposite side of the nut. When a
housing is located at the end of a shaft, grease should be applied at
the end cover side.

5. Position the housing base on the support surface. Fit the attach-
ment bolts, but do not tighten them.

6. Mount the first labyrinth seal on the shaft in the correct position.

7. Mount the bearing on the shaft – either directly on a stepped


shaft or using an adapter sleeve. Completely fill the bearing with
grease. The remainder of the recommended grease quantity should
be put in the housing base at the sides (see table 2).

8. Mount the second labyrinth ring on the shaft in the correct posi-
tion (if a stepped shaft is used, first mount the distance ring). If the
housing is to be used at the end of a shaft, the second seal is omit-
ted and an end cover inserted in the housing base instead.

9. Mount the second bearing and housing, following steps 4 to 8.

10. Lay the shaft with the two bearings and labyrinth rings in the
two housing bases.

11. For locating bearing arrangements and arrangements with


CARB toroidal roller bearings, put the appropriate number of locat-
ing rings on each side of the bearing (see product tables). Note that
the product tables indicate the total number of locating rings need-
