Contaminants are inevitable in several sealed/non-sealed lubrication systems. As in any gearing/bearing arrangement, any void area is subject to the formation of contaminants. Condensation, dust and metal particles can form from airborne or other sources, and will settle in an oil-bath. They can be easily removed by draining and filtration without the disassembly of the unit. Maintenance of the proper lubrication level is possible and made easier in gear assemblies that utilize oil.
