Description
EP-SLS4002 2-Stage Inline Planetary Gearbox
Brevini Riduttori SLS4002 Compatible Replacement | EVER POWER
EVER POWER’s EP-SLS4002 is a 2-stage inline planetary gearbox in the Brevini SL/SC compatible replacement range, rated at approximately 4,000 Nm output torque. The SLS series inline planetary gearbox is engineered with full dimensional compatibility to the Brevini riduttori SLS4002 — the same flange pattern, output shaft and housing register — enabling maintenance teams to replace failed units without machine downtime beyond the installation itself. With IP65 sealing, synthetic oil bath lubrication and a forged carrier assembly, this unit is designed for long service intervals in demanding continuous-duty industrial environments.

Working Principle
The two-stage epicyclic design of EP-SLS402 achieves maximum efficiency by minimising the number of gear mesh contacts in the power path. Input power from the motor enters the first sun gear. The planet gears — mounted on a precision carrier — orbit the sun and react against a fixed ring gear, stepping down speed and multiplying torque at the carrier output. This carrier then drives the next stage input, compounding the reduction. The output shaft or hollow bore is supported by a back-to-back bearing arrangement providing combined axial and radial load capacity for direct sprocket, coupling or gear drive connections.
Core Advantages
|
★ 4,000 Nm Rated Torque
Full rated output torque for demanding continuous industrial duty cycles. |
► 2-stage Efficiency
Balanced efficiency and ratio range for the required application. |
|
● Brevini SLS402 Direct Fit
Identical mounting dimensions — installs in original machine pocket without modification. |
▲ Oil-Bath Lubrication
Sealed oil-bath serves all mounting orientations — horizontal, vertical and inverted. |

◆ 18-Month Warranty
EVER POWER’s 18-month warranty exceeds the 12-month standard of most European OEM suppliers. |
Structure and Material Technology
The one-piece GGG50 ductile iron housing is stress-relieved after casting and precision-bored to eliminate misalignment between gear stages. Planet journals run on needle roller bearing assemblies with hardened pins, providing maximum radial stiffness in the compact housing diameter. The output flange register face is precision-turned to 0.015 mm total runout for accurate shaft coupling or sprocket mounting without eccentricity. O-ring face seals at housing joint faces use HNBR compound for compatibility with biodegradable hydraulic fluids.
Typical Application Scenarios
| Industry | Application | Key Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Paper | Large reel stand unwind drive | High torque for controlled unwind of heavy paper reel. |
| Recycling | Industrial shredder infeed | High starting torque handles dense material feed into shredder. |
| Energy | Hydroelectric gate actuator | Reliable slow-speed drive for penstock gate actuation. |
| Sugar | Mill crushing roll main drive | Extreme torque at very low output speed for cane crushing. |
Selection Guide
- Required Output Torque (Nm) — Confirm peak and continuous torque with safety factor of 1.3-2.0.
- Gear Ratio — Motor speed (rpm) / required output speed (rpm). Range: 10:1 – 60:1.
- Stage Count — 2-stage provides ratio range 10:1 – 60:1. Higher stages = higher ratio and lower efficiency.
- Motor Interface — Flange type (SAE / IEC metric), shaft diameter and keyway.
- IP Rating — IP65 is standard. IP67/IP68 upgrade available for washdown or outdoor service.
- Mounting Orientation — Horizontal, vertical or inverted; all supported with standard oil-bath lubrication.
- Operating Temperature — Standard -25 to +80 degC; Arctic and high-temp variants available.
