Smaller sizes up to and including size 13 have a triangular flange (+ fig. 2), larger sizes have a square flange (> fig. 2). FNL housings are supplied with a cover either for shaft ends or for through shafts (> fig. 3) The housings with a cover for shaft ends have the designation suffix A, the housings with a cover for through shafts have the designation suffix B Fig. FNL housing with triangular flange SKF Standard housing design Fig.2 FNL housing with square flange Fig.3 FNL housings for shaft end or through shaft 11 Fausto fe FNL5(00)8 535Flanged hou: 195 FNL series Features and benefits FNL flanged housings have the following fea~ tures and benefits: Simple mounting To simplify mounting and make alignment more accurate, lines cast into the housing flange indicate the centre of the housing bore. Dimples indicate the position for dowel pins (> fig. 4) Grease guiding system An integrated flange guides grease from the grease fitting into the bearing (-> fig. 5) Low friction seals Alow friction, double-lip seal on each side of the housing keeps grease in and contaminants out (> fig. 6). These seals allow rotational speeds twice that of traditional felt seals. Drilled holes for relubrication FNL housings have two predrilled holes for relubrication. One is centered and enables relubrication via a lubrication feature in the bearing. The other is offset and enables relu- brication from the side. Housing material FNL flanged housings are made of grey cast iron. Paint, corrosion protection FNL flanged housings are painted black (RAL 9005) using a water based alkyd/acryl paint. The paint protects the housing in accordance with ISO 12944-2, corrosivity cat- egory C2 (i.e. exterior atmospheres with low level of pollution, interior atmospheres where condensation may occur). The paint is not affected by most lubricating or engine oils, cutting fluids or alkalescent washing chemicals. Housings can be repainted with most water or solvent based 1- or 2-component paints. Unpainted surfaces are protected by a sol- ventless rust inhibitor. 536 Grease guiding system Low friction seats Fig. 5 Fig.6 SKFDimension standards The dimensions of FNL flanged housings are Centr recess on FNL housings not standardized either nationally or internationally. b Interchangeability FNL flanged housings are dimensionally inter- changeable with the earlier 7225(00) housings Housing variants In addition to standard design FNL flanged housings, variants are also available.

Typical shaft-bearing combinations FNL flanged housings can accommodate bear- ings on an adapter sleeve on plain shafts. Fig.9 SKF Design considerations Locating and non-locating bearing positions FNL housings can be used for both the locating and non-locating bearing positions. The hous- ings are machined standard for bearings in the non-locating position. Bearings in the locating position as well as CARB toroidal roller bear- ings must be secured in the housing with a spacing washer or one or two locating rings . 9). Appropriate spacing washers and locating rings are listed in the product tables. When a spacing washer or only one locating ring is used, it should be inserted on the cover side of the bearing. When two locating rings are used, one should be placed on each side of the bearing 539 11Flanged hou: 195 FNL series Load carrying capacity The permissible radial loads for a flanged housing depend on the bearing, the breaking load of the housing and the strength of the attachment bolts. Guideline values for the breaking loads of the housings are provided intable 3, The permissible axial loads for a flanged housing are limited by the friction between the sleeve and shaft. Additional housing support When the housing is subjected to heavy radial loads, a stop or dowel pins should be used to relieve the load on the attachment bolts. A shoulder or a guide ring on the support surface engaging a centring recess can also be used. Whichever method is used, it should be suf- ficiently strong to accommodate the loads act- ing parallel to the support surface. Recommendations for the position and size of the holes to accommodate dowel pins are provided in table 4. Dimples cast into the housing flange mark the recommended positions. Operating temperature The permissible operating temperature is ‘mainly limited by the seals (> table 2, page 538) and the lubricant. For temperature limits of SKF bearings and lubricants, refer to the product information available online at skf.com/bearings. The housing material does not set any addi- tional temperature limits, except for very low temperature applications where impact strength could bea factor. The housing paint is heat resistant up to 80°C (175 °F) material temperature or 100°C (210 °F) ambient temperature When temperatures outside the permissible range are expected, contact the SKF applica~ tion engineering service. 540 Tables br king loads for FNL housings Aa aaa Housing Breaking loads Sze PPP WN ENLSOS so 4080 FNLSOG go eS FNLSO7 7 5080 ENLSOB so 555 FNLSO® 9 © 6000 FNLSIO 100 65105, FNtsaa m0 8210 FNLSI2 09515 NLS 100180, ENLSI5 suo 125265 FNLSIG 3600 10a FNLSI7 so 55 i eNesa8 10170490 FNLS20 180015565, FNUS22 390 200 6a SKFDesign considerations Tables Operating speed Position and size of dowel pinholes The seals can limit the permissible operating speed. They are suitable for circumferential speeds of up to 8 m/s, The corresponding rotational speeds are listed in table 7 on page 37. For speed limits of the bearing, refer to the product information available online at skf.com/bearings, Attachment bolt recommendations In typical applications, 8.8 class hexagon head bolts in accordance with ISO 4014 can be used together with washers in accordance with 1SO 7089 or 7090. SKF housings can with- stand loads resulting from tightening the attachment bolts to the torque values recom- mended by bolt manufacturers (—> table 6, page 544). They are valid for oiled, but other- wise untreated, thread surfaces. Ifthe bearing arrangement is subjected to heavy radial loads, it may be necessary to use stronger, 10.9 class bolts. SKF cannot guarantee that tightening to the recommended value will provide sufficient anchoring. Make sure that attachment bolts, dowels or stops, shoulder or guide ring can accommodate all occurring loads.

The lubricant should be selected based on the operating conditions of the bear- ing. For additional information about lubricant selection, refer to the product information available online at skf.com. Initial grease fill Ifno other requirements exist, the free space in the bearing should be completely filled with grease and the free space in the housing should. be filled to 20 to 40% of its volume. A 40% grease fill is required when bearings have to be relubricated from the side, while a 20% grease fills used when bearings are relubricated via the outer ring For highly contaminated environments and slow speeds, fill the housing to 70-80%. For additional information, contact the SKF appli- cation engineering service. Quantities for 20 and 40% grease fills are listed in table 5. The values are valid for a typical lithium grease (about 0,95 g/cm). They include grease for the bearing and the seals. In most applications, the initial grease fill will adequately lubricate the bearing until the grease is exchanged during the next planned inspection. Relubrication Certain operating conditions such as high speeds, high temperatures or heavy loads may require relubrication. Therefore FNL housings have two holes that have been drilled and tapped for an AH 1/8-27 PTF grease fitting ( fig. 10). On anew housing, the holes are covered by plastic plugs. These plugs should be replaced with the grease fitting and the threaded plug supplied with the housing. Ifa larger grease fitting or other equipment has to be used an adapter to change to a G 2/ thread is available (—> page 48). Excess grease can escape via the seals. If this is not enough, SKF can supply housings with a grease escape hole in the cover (desig- nation suffix V) on request. SKF recommends removing the housing cover periodically to remove used grease. The time interval for this 542 Initial grease fi Housing Size FNLSOS FNLSO6 FNLSO7 FNL S08 FNLSO® FNLSIO ents ENLSI2 NLS FNLsas FNLSIG FNLSI7 eNLsia FNLS20 FNLS22 Inisat it 20% 20 & 5 30 5 40 ry 20 350 80 20 250 320 0 40% 6 5 45 50 60 50 20 250 500 350 400 500 650 Tables Fig.10 SKFLubrication Fig. Fig. 32 Relubrication via the outer ring Relubrication from the side depends on the application, the size of the bearing and the amount of grease applied. Relubrication via the outer ring The hole closest to the cover should be used to relubricate spherical roller bearings with a relubrication feature (a lubrication groove and holes in the outer ring) (> fig. 14). When 11 applying grease via the relubrication feature the shaft should be rotating. Relubrication from the side When relubricating from the side, which is typically necessary for self-aligning ball bear- ings and CARB toroidal roller bearings, the hole closest to the flange should be used (6 fig. 12). FNL flanged housings have an integral flange that guides grease from the grease fit- ting directly to the rolling elements (> fig. 13) Fig. 13 SKF 543Flanged housings FNL series Mounting FNL housings must be mounted properly using the appropriate tools and state of the art mechanical mounting methods. All the associ- ated components must also meet certain basic requirements (~> Specifications for shafts and housing support surfaces on page 45). Mounting instructions are provided with the housing. For information about mounting roll- ing bearings, refer to the SKF bearing mainte- nance handbook or skf.com/mount. Torque specifications Cover bolts and attachment bolts should be tightened to the torque values listed in table 6. Condition monitoring If connections for condition monitoring sensors are required, contact SKF. Accessories There are several accessories available for FNL housings, including lubricators, central lubrication systems and adapters for grease fittings.
