1. Safety instructions
Only gerotor pump units of series 143
tested and
approved by SKF in accordance with ATEX
Directive 2014/34/EU are permitted to be
used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
The relevant class of explosion protection is
indicated on the gerotor pump unit’s rating
plate.
1.1 Special safety instructions regarding
explosion protection
○ Always behave so as to avoid explosion hazards.
○ A written work authorization from the operator is required prior to initiating work in potentially explosive atmo-spheres. Unauthorized persons must be kept away.
○ There must be no evidence that parts of the explosion protection are missing or non-functional. If this is not excluded, switch off the machine/gerotor pump unit and immediately notify the supervisor.
○ Explosion protection measures must never be deactivated, changed, or bypassed.
○ The introduction of ignition sources such as sparks, open flames, and hot surfaces into potentially explosive atmospheres is prohibited.
○ Inspect the product at regular intervals for damage that may present a risk of ignition.
○ The lubricant’s ignition temperature has to be at least 50 kelvin above the maxi-mum permissible surface temperature.
○ Use only tools and clothing approved for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (ESD).
○ Transport/assembly/repairs and work on electrical components may be performed only if it is ensured that there is no ex-plosive atmosphere present.
○ Repairs or modifications to explosion-proof machinery may be performed only by the manufacturer or a workshop rec-ognized by a notified body and accepted by the manufacturer. If the work is not performed by the manufacturer itself, the repair must be accepted and approved in writing by a recognized expert. The repair is marked by a repair sign on the machine containing the following infor-mation: - Date - Executing company - Type of repair - If applicable, mark by expert
○ Shipping damage may lead to the loss of explosion protection. If there is apparent shipping damage, do not install/put into operation the product.

level monitors must be established by an
intrinsically safe circuit, e.g., through the
installation of an ATEX-compliant isolat-
ing switch by the customer.
o Any components connected or flanged
to the ATEX gerotor pump unit must be
ATEX-compliant.
o The motor connection of the gerotor
pump unit is connected in accordance
with the enclosed instructions from the
ATEX motor manufacturer. These instruc-
tions are stored in the motor’s terminal
box.
o The customer must install adequate
overload protection (motor circuit break-
er) for the power consumption of the
gerotor pump motor.
o When installing the gerotor pump unit,
make sure that the setup location is flat
and low-vibration.
o To limit the maximum system pressure,
the customer must install a pressure
regulating valve immediately after the an-
nular gear.
o Only lines that are made of corrosion-
resistant material may be used. These
must also be grounded.
o The user must make sure through the
choice of the lubricant to be delivered
that no reactions capable of serving as an
ignition source will occur in conjunction
with the potentially explosive atmosphere
expected.

2. Lubricants
2. Lubricants
2.1 General information
Lubricants are used specially for specific
applications. To fulfill the task, lubricants
must meet various requirements to varying
degrees. The most important requirements
for lubricants are: ○ Reduction in friction and wear
○ Corrosion protection
○ Noise reduction
○ Protection against contamination/ingress of foreign matter
○ Cooling (primarily for oils)
○ Durability (physical/chemical stability)
○ Compatible with as many materials as possible
○ Economic and environmental aspects
2.2 Selection of lubricants
SKF Lubrication Systems considers lubri-
cants to be an element of system design.
The selection of a suitable lubricant should
reasonably be made during the design of
the machine and forms the basis for plan-
ning the centralized lubrication system.
The manufacturer/operator of the machine
should preferably make the selection with
the supplier of the lubricant on the basis of
the requirements profile of the specific task.
If you have no or little experience selecting
lubricants for centralized lubrication sys-
tems, please contact SKF.
We gladly assist our customers in the selec-
tion of suitable components for feeding the
selected lubricant and in the planning and
design of a centralized lubrication system.
This may spare you potentially costly
downtime due to damage to the machine/
system and/or damage to the centralized
lubrication system.
Only lubricants specified for the
product may be used (see “Tech-
nical data” chapter). Unsuitable
lubricants lead to failure of the
product and possibly to property
damage.
Do not mix lubricants. This can
have unpredictable effects on the
usability and this function of the
centralized lubrication system.
Due to the large number of pos-
sible additives, it is possible that
individual lubricants that meet
the required specifications ac-
cording to the manufacturer’s
data sheet are not suitable for
use in centralized lubrication sys-
tems (e.g., incompatibility
between synthetic lubricants and
materials). To avoid this, always
use lubricants tested by SKF.
2.3 Material compatibility
The lubricants must be compatible with
the following materials: ○ Steel, gray cast iron, brass, copper,
aluminum
○ FKM (FPM), ABS, PA, PU
2.4 Aging of lubricants
In case of extended machine downtime,
check before re-commissioning that the
lubricant is still suitable for use in terms of
chemical/physical signs of aging. We recom-
mend performing this inspection after 1
week
of machine downtime.
In case of doubt regarding the suitability of
the lubricant, replace it before re-commis-
sioning and, if necessary, perform an initial
lubrication manually.
It is possible for lubricants to be tested in the
company's laboratory for their suitability for
pumping in centralized lubrication systems
(e.g., "bleeding").
Please contact SKF if you have further ques-
tions regarding lubricants.
An overview of the lubricants we have
tested is available on request.
2.5 Lubricants in potentially explosive
atmospheres
The lubricant’s ignition tempera-
ture has to be at least 50 kelvin
above the maximum permissible
surface temperature.

3. Overview, functional description
3.4 Functional description of gerotor
pump units
)See Figure 3
SKF gerotor pump units of product series 143 are used in circu-
lating-oil and total-loss lubrication systems in a flow rate range of
0.85 to 50 l/min.
The standard permissible ambient temperature is between 0 and
+40°C. Higher ambient temperatures are possible, though they lead
to a reduction in motor performance and thus the delivery rate. In
this case, the maximum permissible temperature of the pumped
medium must be reduced.
The permissible temperature of the pumped medium is between 0
and +60°C.
The gerotor pumps include a gasket set made of FKM (FPM).
SKF gerotor pump units feed lubricating and hydraulic oils from a
reservoir and into the pipe system of a centralized lubrication sys-
tem. In doing so, they increase the energy of the pumped medium
(pressure increase) to overcome flow resistance in the pipelines
(pressure loss), the components (filters, valves, distributors), and the
bearings and friction points.
SKF gerotor pump units of different types and performance ratings
are used depending on the type and size of the centralized lubrica-
tion system and the lubricant (see pump code or “Technical data”
chapter).

3.5 Operation of the gerotor pump units
)See Figure 4
SKF gerotor pump units of product series 143 have a constant dis-
placement volume and one delivery circuit.
The annular-toothed feeding element, also referred to as the gero-
tor, is equipped with a cycloid contour, which creates a large
tooth meshing length. This yields a low volumetric flow pulsation
and thus very smooth running, low noise production, and good suc-
tion characteristics.
SKF gerotor pumps consist primarily of pump housing (1), the shaft
(2), the displacement elements toothed rotor (3) and annular gear
(4), and the lid (5).
They are driven by attached AC motors of frame sizes 71 to 132 with
flameproof enclosures.
The motors are designed for a rated motor voltage of 230/400 V or
400/690 V for 50 Hz networks with mains voltage fluctuations of
up to ± 10% and frequency fluctuations from -5% to +3% accord-
ing to EN ISO 60034-1.
The normal coils used for this purpose in motors are tailor-
made and meet the IE3 efficiency level according to EU Directive
2009/125/EC.
Special voltage versions with special coils for 50 Hz and 60 Hz net-
works are available for order.
Suction and displacement process
See Figure 4
The shaft drives the centrally mounted toothed rotor in the indicated
direction of rotation via a feather key. The toothed rotor meshes
with the outer, eccentrically mounted annular gear and rotates with
it. The openings between teeth arising in the suction area (S) draw
the pumped medium in. The suction and pressure area is separated
from the tooth meshing area (Z) by a radial gap (R) formed by the
tooth profiles of the annular gear and the toothed rotor as they slide
onto one another. In the pressurized area (P), the fluid is fed to the
pressure port through increasingly small chambers.

Delivery rates and characteristic curves
The indicated nominal delivery rates refer to the nominal output
multiplied by the speed 1400 or 2800 rpm. The actual delivery
rate changes with operating viscosity and back pressure and can be
found in the following characteristic curve diagrams. These diagrams
are based on viscosity data in the range between 20 and 1000
mm2/s in increments of 20, 140, 750, and 1000 mm2/s.
Each gerotor pump has a characteristic curve represented as a func-
tion of the delivery rate above the delivery pressure (back pressure).
It is important to note that temperature influences can render lubri-
cating and hydraulic oils extremely thin or viscous.
Please consult with SKF in advance if you will use lubricating and hy-
draulic oils with an operating viscosity outside the specified range.

4. Technical data
See Chapters 4.7.1 to 4.7.2
The curves shown in both figures are based on a viscosity index (VI)
of VI ~ 95, approximately corresponding to standard mineral oil. The
viscosity index describes the slope of the curve and thus the viscosi-
ty-temperature relationship at temperatures other than +40°C.
The lines appear straight because a logarithmic scale was selected
for the ordinate so that the slope of the curves can be determined
easily based on 2 measuring points.

Temperatur °C
The change in the viscosity of oils is disproportionately greater in
lower temperature ranges than in higher temperature ranges. For
example, an oil with a rated viscosity of 100 undergoes the following
viscosity change in different temperature ranges at the same tem-
perature difference:
at +80°C = 18 mm2/s
at +10°C = 875 mm2/s
versus:
at +75°C = 21 mm2/s change of 3 mm2/s
at + 5°C = 1450 mm2/s change of 575 mm2/s.

Foot design IM B34
Gerotor pump unit, Fig. 13
IMPORTANT NOTE
The information listed in Chapter 5.5 “Transporting the gerotor
pump unit” also applies without restriction to the assembly of the
gerotor pump unit.
6. Assembly
6.1.3 Attachment
The product should, to the extent possible, be protected from hu-
midity and vibration, and should be mounted so that it is easily
accessible, allowing all further installation work to be done without
difficulty.
During assembly and especially when drilling assembly holes on the
system, always pay attention to the following:
○ Check the gerotor pump unit for any shipping damages and for completeness.
○ The IP safety class must be observed.
○ The gerotor pump unit and its ground connection must be con-nected to the equipotential bonding of the main machine.
○ Other units must not be damaged by assembly work.
○ The product must not be installed within range of moving parts.
○ The product must be installed at a sufficiently large distance from sources of heat or cold.
○ Maintain safety clearances and comply with statutory regulations for assembly and accident prevention.
○ Drill the assembly holes for the gerotor pump unit as specified in
this chapter.
○ The various designs of gerotor pump unit are secured using 4 screws according to the specific installation conditions at the location.
○ See the connection diagrams below for the measurements and port dimensions.
○ No radial or axial active forces may occur at the gerotor pump unit.
○ The gerotor pump unit must be installed in a stress-free position.
○ The pump may only be commissioned and operated with an oil supply; the pump must not run dry.
WARNING
Explosion hazard
The lubricant’s ignition temperature has to be at least
50 kelvin above the maximum permissible surface
temperature.
WARNING
Explosion hazard from non-ATEX-compliant attach-
ments and monitoring equipment
Only ATEX-compliant screw unions, lines, attachments,
and monitoring equipment may be installed on the ATEX
gerotor pump units.

6. Assembly
WARNING
Explosion hazard at excessively high temperature
increase
A volumetric flow meter must be used if the viscosity is
<30 mm2/s and the pressure (P) is greater than 30 bar.
If the pump unit is used in systems lacking open delivery lines,
pressure-regulating valves must be provided to limit the maximum
system pressure. The selected cross-section of the intake tube must
be equal to or greater than the cross-section of the suction port
on the gerotor pump unit. SKF recommends the use of filters for
trouble-free operation of the pump unit. Effective filtration prevents
malfunctions while also increasing the service life of the gerotor
pump unit.
A pumped medium of at least the purity class 20/17/14 according to
ISO 4406(c) is recommended. This corresponds to the U.S. standard
NAS code (1638) class 8 and SAE AS 4059 class 8.
A filter rating of approx. 5 to 10 µm meets this requirement.
The filter rating used is always based on the most sensitive compo-
nent in the entire system. This is not necessarily the pump.
The following applies in general:
o Prior to beginning installation, inspect the full scope of delivery for
the gerotor pump unit for any damage or corrosion.
o A fill level indicator with pre-warning min./max. must be installed
on the customer’s system.
o The maximum permissible operating temperature (lubricant
temperature) must not be exceeded. Install a heat exchanger if
necessary.
o Carefully clean screw unions and tubing prior to beginning
installation.
o Lubricant exiting from the return line must not be immediately
resuctioned under any circumstances.
o The intake and return lines in the lubricant reservoir must be
below the minimum lubricant level in all operating states. This
prevents air and foam from being suctioned.
o It must be ensured that screw unions, connections, and connec-
tion elements are leak-free.
o SKF recommends the installation of return line or pressure filters.
However, suction filters should only be used in conjunction with
electric negative pressure switches or contamination indicators.
o Different lubricants must not be mixed together.
o Connect the gerotor pump unit as indicated by the rotation arrow;
see page 15, Fig. 1.
o The gerotor pump unit may only be commissioned and operated
with an oil supply; the gerotor pump must not run dry.
o Ensure cleanliness; components must be installed without
contamination.
o Do not use any cleaning wipes containing lint.
o Existing supply lines must not be damaged by assembly work.
o Other units must not be damaged by assembly work. ○ The gerotor pump unit must be set up at a location with the
specified ambient temperature (see “Technical data”) and max. 1000 m above sea level. Different ambient temperatures and altitudes must be specified on the motor’s rating plate. The motor must not be exposed to direct sunlight at ambient temperatures above 30°C.
○ Air inlets and outlets on the motor fan cowl must not be ob-structed, as this could cause the temperature to rise above the approved temperature class and reduce the service life of the winding insulation.
○ Air inlets and outlets on the motor fan cowl must be checked for cleanliness in a regular inspection.
○ Assess vibrations of the machinery in accordance with ISO 10816-3. However, the maximum permitted vibration velocity is 3.5 mm/s due to the pressure-resistant design of the motors.
○ Drill assembly holes in such a way that no lines, units, or moving parts are damaged or their function impaired. Maintain safety clearances and comply with regulations for assembly and accident prevention.
WARNING
Excessive switching voltage hazard
An isolating amplifier must be inserted if an electrical ATEX
fill level indicator will be used in a potentially explosive at-
mosphere. The maximum permissible voltage Ui must not
be exceeded.
WARNING
Explosion hazard
In case the gerotor pump fails, there must be no risk of
explosion from the gerotor pump unit, the machine, or the
system. The customer must therefore provide a monitor-
ing function, for example in the form of a volumetric flow
meter.

drawing.
Gerotor pump units in design IM B34 (foot design) are installed
horizontally.
Gerotor pump units in design IM B14 (flange design) can be in-
stalled both horizontally and vertically.
Depending on the model, they can be mounted separately from the
lubricant reservoir or flanged to a lubricant reservoir.
When set up separately, the suction port of the pump may be con-
nected to a lubricant reservoir that is situated higher
(max. 2000 mm).
To flange the gerotor pump unit to a lubricant reservoir horizontally
below the oil level, use a sealed pump in a special design. Consult
SKF's Service department.

6.2 Minimum mounting dimensions
To ensure enough space for maintenance work and for any disas-
sembly of the product, ensure that the minimum mounting dimen-
sions (Figs. 15 and 16) are maintained.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Observe the technical data (Chapter 4).
CAUTION
Slipping hazard
Centralized lubrication systems must always be free of
leaks. Leaking lubricant is hazardous due to the risk of
slipping and injury.
Beware of any lubricant leaking out during assembly, op-
eration, maintenance, or repair of centralized lubrication
systems. Leaks must be sealed off without delay.

6. Assembly
Be sure to connect the motor so as to guarantee a continuously safe
electrical connection (no protruding wire ends); use the assigned ca-
ble end fittings (e.g., cable lugs, wire end ferrules). Select connecting
cables conforming to DIN VDE 0100, taking into account the rated
current and the conditions of the specific system (e.g., ambient tem-
perature, type of routing, etc. in accordance with DIN VDE 0298-4).
Details regarding electrical connection of the motor to the power
supply, especially terminal and connector pin assignment, can be
taken from the terminal diagram in the terminal box.
WARNING
Electric shock / damage to pump motor
The available mains voltage (supply voltage) must match
the speciications on the rating plate of the motor or of the
electrical components.
It may connected only via a safe galvanic isolation (PELV).
Check the fuse protection of the electrical circuit.
Use only fuses with the prescribed current intensity,
Monitoring equipment that has been triggered (e.g., mo-
tor circuit breaker/fuse) must not automatically switch on
again.
6.7 Electrical motor connection
Consult the motor rating plate for the electrical characteristics of the
motor, such as rated voltage, rated frequency, and rated current.
Observe the guidelines in EN/ISO 60034 (VDE 0530-1) for operation
at the limits of the B ranges (combination of ±10% voltage deviation
and +3/-5% frequency deviation).
This applies especially with regard to heating and deviations in op-
erating parameters from the ratings on the motor rating plate. The
limits must never be exceeded.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Refer to the enclosed operating instructions from the motor manu-
facturer to connect the ATEX motor of the gerotor pump unit. The
information contained therein must be observed.
WARNING
Electric shock
Electrical connections for the product may only be estab-
lished by qualified ATEX personnel authorized to do so by
the operator. The local electrical operating conditions and
local regulations (e.g., DIN, VDE) must be observed.
WARNING
Mains connection for explosion-proof motors
A mains connection in a potentially explosive atmosphere
requires a motor circuit breaker or equivalent protective
device, such as a PTC thermistor with triggering device.
This must be indicated on the motor rating plate together
with release time tA.
WARNING

6. Assembly
6.8 Lubrication line arrangement
When arranging the main lubricant lines and lubrication point lines,
observe the following instructions in order to ensure that the entire
centralized lubrication system functions smoothly.
To prevent cavitation and thus early failure of the gerotor pump unit,
ensure that the suction line is sufficiently large.
Only grounded steel tubing may be used.
The suction line and thus the suction performance should be kept
to a minimum and the admission pressure must not exceed max.
0.2 bar.
The main lubricant line must be dimensioned in accordance with the
maximum operating pressure occurring in the lubrication unit used
and the displacement of that lubrication unit. If possible, the main
lubricant line should rise upward from the gerotor pump and be
ventable at the highest point on the lubrication line system.
Lubricant feeders at the end of the main lubricant line must be in-
stalled such that the outlets of the lubricant feeders point upwards.
If the system configuration requires that the lubricant feeders be
arranged below the main lubricant line, they should not be placed at
the end of the main lubricant line.
The pipes, hoses, shutoff valves, directional control valves, fittings,
etc. that will be used must be designed for the maximum operating
pressure of the lubrication unit, the permissible temperatures, and
the lubricants that will be delivered. The lubrication line system also
needs to be protected from excessive pressure by means of a pres-
sure-limiting valve. The use of plastic tubing may cause electrostatic
6.7.1 Establishing grounding connection
for motor
)See Figures 15 to 17 and Fig. 18
The product has ports for one protective earth conductor and one to
two equipotential bonding connections.
The port for the protective earth conductor is located in the motor’s
terminal box (1) and is intended for the electrical line and the electri-
cal connections.
Depending on the motor size, there are one or two equipotential
bonding connections attached to the motor housing (see Figs.
15/16, position “- EK” and Fig. 19 (2) (3)).
The gerotor pump unit must be connected to the equipotential
bonding of the main machine using the provided equipotential
bonding ports.
• Establish equipotential bonding using the provided equipotential
bonding ports (2) (3) to the main machine.
In case of terminal clamps with cable lugs, select their size according
to the required conductor cross-section and the bolt size. Installation
in a slanted position is permissible only if the required air and creep-
age distances are maintained.
Strip conductor ends so that the remaining insulation extends al-
most to the cable lug.
The current-carrying connection is ensured by direct contact be-
tween the cable lug surfaces and the contact nut or contact screw.
WARNING
Hazardous contact voltages on unit
The protective earth conductor (in the motor terminal
box) and the equipotential bonding (on the motor hous-
ing) must always be connected. Ensure that the contact
is secure and that the connector diameter is adequate
and standard-compliant.

charges. Stainless steel tubing is recommended to achieve sufficient
equipotential bonding.
All components of the lubrication line system such as pipes, hoses,
shutoff valves, directional control valves, fittings, etc. must be care-
fully cleaned before assembly. No seals in the lubrication line sys-
tem should protrude inwards in a way that disrupts the flow of the
lubricant and could allow contaminants to enter the lubrication line
system.
Lubrication lines should always be arranged so that air pockets can-
not form anywhere. Avoid changes in the cross-section of the lubri-
cation line from small to large cross-sections in the direction of flow
of the lubricant. When the cross-section does change, the transition
should be gentle.
The flow of lubricant in the lubrication lines should not be impeded
by the incorporation of sharp bends, angle valves, or flap valves.
Unavoidable changes in the cross-section in lubrication lines must
have smooth transitions. Sudden changes of direction should be
avoided if possible.
6.9 Lubrication line connection
The lubrication line must be connected to the lubrication unit in such a way that no forces can be transferred to the assembled lubrication unit (stress-free connection).
The fittings used to connect the lubrication line should be rated for
the maximum operating pressure of the lubrication unit.
For operating pressures up to 45 bar as can occur especially in
single-line piston distributor systems, SKF fittings for solderless pipe
unions can be used (double tapered sleeves or tapered sleeves). For
higher operating pressures up to 250 bar as can occur especially
in progressive centralized lubrication systems, SKF cutting-sleeve
screw unions conforming to DIN 2353 can be used. If using fittings
from other manufacturers, pay careful attention to the assembly in-
structions and technical specifications provided by the manufacturer.
WARNING
Environmental pollution
Lubrication lines must always be free of leaks. Lubricants
can contaminate soil and waterways. Lubricants must be
used and disposed of properly. Observe the local regula-
tions and laws regarding the disposal of lubricants.
6.10 Note on the rating plate
)See Figure 19
The rating plate provides important data such as the type designa-
tion, order number, barcode, and serial number.
