Description
EP-ET3255 3-Stage Standard Inline Planetary Gearbox
Brevini Riduttori ET3255 Compatible Replacement | EVER POWER
The ET3-series is EVER POWER’s workhorse 3-stage inline planetary gearbox, covering ratio ranges up to 200:1 in a single housing. It serves heavy conveyors, industrial hoists, mixer drives, extruder drives, pump drives and large fan systems where high torque multiplication is needed alongside consistent performance in continuous industrial duty cycles.
The EP-ET3255 replaces the Brevini riduttori ET3255 ?? a 3-stage inline planetary gearbox delivering approximately 68,000 Nm output torque, ratio range 20:1 – 200:1, and IP rating IP66.

Working Principle
Three sequential planetary stages cascade torque multiplication. Stage 1 operates at the highest input speed with smallest module gears; stage 3 operates at the lowest speed with largest module gears and the highest torque. A one-piece forged planet carrier in the output stage eliminates the flex found in welded split-type carriers, ensuring even planet load distribution at peak torque. Oil-bath lubrication supports any mounting orientation without modification.
Core Advantages
|
◼ Up to 200:1 Ratio
3-stage covers slow-speed high-torque applications in one product. |
◼ Forged Output Carrier
One-piece construction ?? no weld-line flex at peak torque. |
|
◼ Any-Orientation Mounting
Oil-bath lube serves horizontal, vertical and inverted positions. |
◼ IP66 Sealing
Jet-water resistant ?? outdoor and marine auxiliary applications. |
|
◼ Direct ET3-Series Replacement
Matching flange and port layout. |
Structure and Material Technology
Output stage gears use 17CrNiMo6 or 18CrNiMo7-6 carburised steel depending on size, ground to DIN 5. Forged one-piece planet carriers are GGG50 nodular iron. Housing exterior carries epoxy primer + polyurethane topcoat (480h salt spray). Seals are FKM fluoroelastomer for synthetic oil at up to 120 degC.
Typical Application Scenarios
| Industry | Application | Key Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Offshore | Large AHC winch main drive | High torque and ratio for active heave compensation. |
| Mining | SAG mill drive | Extreme continuous torque for semi-autogenous grinding mill. |
| Marine | Large propeller shaft drive | Reliable low-speed drive for large vessel shaft systems. |
| Sugar | Sugar mill crushing drive | Very high torque at slow speed for sugar cane crushing. |
Selection Guide
- Required Output Torque (Nm) ?? Confirm peak and continuous with safety factor (1.3-2.0 typical).
- Gear Ratio ?? Motor speed (rpm) / required output speed (rpm).
- Stage Count ?? 3-stage (3-stage inline) provides ratio 20:1 – 200:1.
- Motor Interface ?? Flange type (SAE/ISO metric), shaft diameter and key.
- Operating Environment ?? IP class, ambient temperature, mounting orientation.
