1 Safety Recommendations
Zollern flange bearings (type ZM) are incorporated into various types of machinery and any safety regulations specific to the
machinery must be observed.
During bearing operation, assembly, maintenance and repair, accidents and injuries must be avoided at all costs. The following
points require special attention:
During maintenance and repair ensure that rotating machinery is at a standstill, isolated from electrical supply with interlocks
such the supply cannot be resumed unintentionally.
Loads and speeds must not exceed those specified in Zollern’s data sheets, drawings or calculation sheets.
Rotating parts must be fixed so that accidental movement is not possible.
BEWARE: After use, the bearings will be hot. There is risk of receiving burns during repairs and maintenance if the bearing is
not allowed to cool.
The shaft tolerances set out in our specifications and drawings may not be exceeded.
The bearing may become detached if screws are allowed to loosen. Tighten the screws to the specified torque.
Alterations to the ZM bearing may only be carried out with the express permission of Zollern, who must also be consulted in the
event of load specifications being exceeded. On request, Zollern can provide supervisory personnel to assure that the repairs and
modifications are done properly.
3 Introduction
Please pay careful attention to all points covered by this manual to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the bearing. Care needs
to be taken to keep all bearing parts and the workplace clean. Provision is made for thermometers (1.7, 1.8), oil level gauges (1.11),
oil inlet (1.5) and outlets to be fitted to either side of the bearing. These devices can be fitted to either left or the right as required.
Where a bearing is force oil lubricated, the oil outlet pipe is fitted into the tapping for the oil level gauge (1.11). The oil drain plug
(1.9), which can also act as an oil flow connection, is positioned at the centre underneath the bearing.
With electrically insulated bearings, there is a non-conductive layer on the spherical seat of the bearing housing. This layer is both
wear-resistant and temperature-resistant. The shaft seals (see chapter 6 - “shaft seals”) and the anti-rotating pins (5.3) are
manufactured from non-conductive material and prevent any spark erosion of either bearing shell or. Any temperature control
instrumentation installed by the user should be insulated using appropriate measures, such as isolated protective piping and plastic
screws. Zollern can, of course, provide help when required.
Eyebolts (1.14) are fastened to the upper part of the bearing to assist handling of the complete and assembled bearing. It is
important to remember that they are not suitable for the handling of the assembled machine and that the eyebolts are only to be
used as tension elements.

4 Packing
All bearings are delivered fully assembled without oil. The oil ring (10) and other accessories are packed as separate items. The
bearings are protected against corrosion and other influences by a preserving film, according to individual application.
5 Installation
Once the upper housing (1.1), the seal carrier (15.1), the shaft seals (20.1) and the bearing seal (5.1 and 5.2) have been dismantled,
carefully clean the interior of the bearing and the bearing shell and check for any damage caused during transport.
Ensure that the shaft is clean and that dimensions and tolerances correspond to our recommendations. We recommend that the
appearance of the bearing surface on the shaft is checked and that it is checked that non-moving seals have not become jammed in
the shaft (see chapter 6 “shaft seals”).
Align the cleaned lower part of the housing (1.2) with the machine frame and fasten.
Tighten the fixing screws (40.2) of the lower casing to the following torque values:
Bearing Size 9 11 14 18 22 28
Torque (Nm) * 51 87 215 430 740 1500
* Torque in lb.f = Torque in Nm X 0.7373
Continue with installation as follows depending on the machine shield design:
1. Single Piece Machine Shield
The locating spigot is situated in the lower half of the shield. In the upper half there is a larger location with a larger radius this is
closed off post assembly with a thin metal sheet.
2. Split Machine Shield
The machine shield is split with a thick walled lower half, the upper part being of thinner sheet which is attached to the upper casing
post bearing assembly.
3. Split Machine Shield with constant wall thickness
In this instance assemble as per 2 above
Secure the lower half of the machine seal (30.2) loosely to the lower casing (1.2). Coat the corresponding sealing surface with a
thin film of non-hardening sealing compound.
Apply a film of oil to both the spherical seats in the lower part of the bearing housing (1.2) and to the lower part of the bearing
shell (5.2) (use the same oil as is to be used during operation of the bearing).
Place the lower part of the bearing shell (5.2) onto the shaft seat and turn it to the correct position in the lower part of the
housing. Take care that thrust bearing surfaces are not damaged while the shell is turned.
Align the surface of the shell with that of the housing.
Next assemble the loose oil ring (10), which must first be disassembled. Position both halves of the oil ring on the shaft and
around the lower half of the shell using the notch provided, then press both halves together on the dowel pins. Following this,
tighten the fixing screws to the following torque values:
Bearing Size 09 - 14 18 - 28
Torque (Nm) * 1.4 2.7
* Torque in lb.f = Torque in Nm X 0.7373
After tightening to the proper torque, it is recommended to swage the ring at each bolt edge to positively prevent loosening
during operation.
Apply a film of oil to the shaft seat and lower the shaft into the lower part of the shell (5.2).
Having positioned the shaft, fit the loose lower half of the machine seal (30.2) against the lower half of the shaft. With the seal in
this position tighten the flange fixing screws (30.4) of the lower half of the machine seal (30.2) to the following torque values:
Bearing Size 09 - 14 18 - 28
Torque (Nm) * 10 25
* Torque in lb.f = Torque in Nm X 0.7373
(During operation the seal is running on an oil film, so there is no seal-to-shaft contact)
Apply a film of oil to the upper part of the bearing shell (5.1). Lower shaft into the lower part of the shell (5.2) and place the
upper part of the shell onto the lower part (it is impossible to turn both halves of the shell together as they would become
misaligned).
Coat the surface of the split line in the lower part of the bearing housing with a thin film of non-hardening sealingcompound.
4
Very slowly lower the upper part of the housing (1.1) onto the lower half. Ensure that during lowering the already assembled
flange-side seal (21.1) locates into the groove provided. Avoid jamming at all costs. The upper part must be correctly aligned (to
ensure this one possibility is to pass a rod through the upper through hole and align accordingly). Tighten the cover screws
(1.3) crossways to the following torque values :
Bearing size 9 11 14 18 22 28
Torque (Nm) * 41 70 172 344 592 1200
* Torque in lb.f = Torque in Nm X 0.7373
With machines that are prone to vibration, it is essential that measures be taken to prevent screws from loosening. To this end
secure with Loctite or similar thread locking compound.
After coating the corresponding sealing surface of the upper casing half (1.1) and the split line surface of the machine seal
(30.2) with non-hardening sealing compound, fasten the upper half of the machine seal (30.1) to the upper casing (1.1).
Tighten first the split line screws (30.5) of the machine seal and then the flange retaining screws of the upper half of the
machine seal (30.1) with the torques given above for the lower half flange screws (30.4).
Connect the bearing shield to the upper casing (1.1) according to the machine shield design.
Prepare the exterior floating labyrinth seal (20.1) for assembly in the same way as the flange-side seal and attach to the shaft
before fastening the seal carrier (15.1) to the housing.
Coat the split lines and flange surfaces of the seal carrier with non-hardening sealing compound.
Place the seal carrier (15.1) around the floating labyrinth seal, push both into the bearing housing and tighten the seal carrier
screws (15.2) to the following torque values :
Bearing Size 09 - 14 18 - 28
Torque (Nm) * 10.5 26
Torque in lb.f = Torque in Nm X 0.7373
5.2 Additional Information for Bearings with Water Cooler in the Oil Sump
When attaching the water cooler care must be taken to ensure that there are no leaks from the cooler or its connecting pipes. The
joint seals must not be damaged. During fitting a stop tap or valve should be provided in the inlet. Any oil should be free to drain from
the housing (no pressure should be required). The cooling flow can be in either direction.

6 Shaft Seals
Zollern bearings can be supplied with various seal types or seal systems depending on the required application, with seals
conforming to DIN 40050 or IEC 529. Special seals can be supplied for particular applications on request.
Oil drain holes are provided in the lower part of the floating labyrinth seal. An anti rotation pin on the split line prevents the seal from
being assembled incorrectly and damaged.
Unassemble the seals prior to bearing assembly so that the hook and eye of the spring key (20.2 & 21.2) are separated.
Prepare the seal for installation and coat the surface of the split line and the exterior of the spring guide (see fig. 2) with a thin
layer of non-hardening sealing compound (supplied by Zollern).
Place the lower part of the seal onto the shaft and turn it into the correct position make sure the oil drain holes in the seal are
facing towards the bearing and the anti rotating pin must sit in the groove of the split line).
Place the upper part of seal onto the lower
Insert the spring key through the sealing groove and lock into place.
Check the alignment of the seal and housing split line

Insertion to be done as follows:
Spread the sealing compound onto the surface of the split line and coat the movement surface with the seal carrier of the
floating labyrinth seal (fig. 3)
Next gently press the lower part (the half with a drain hole visible on the outer surface) from underneath against the shaft and
tighten the fixing bolts equally.
Finally position the upper part, align on the split line and attach with the bolts.
After placing onto the shaft the labyrinth ring must be so placed that it is not possible for it to run into the groove. The axial
movement of the shaft is limited.
A thin layer of sealing compound initially retains the rigid seal. During assembly the lower half of the seal is lightly pressed onto
the shaft from below and the screws then tightened (during operation the shaft is raised).
ATTENTION The baffles must be removed during assembly and disassembly of the shaft or damage to the shaft may ensue.
7 Commissioning
Remove the oil sight glass (1.11) or the plug (1.9) fill to the recommended level with the recommended oil grade. The oil is at the
correct level when it reaches the middle of the oil level glass (1.10). The minimum oil level is when the oil only reaches the lower part
of the sight level glass when the machine is stationary.
WARNING
Insufficient oil level will lead to ineffective lubrication, bearing overheating and subsequent damage leading to failure. Too high a
level of oil will not hinder the operation of the bearing, but could lead to leakage at the seals. Prior to commissioning of the bearing it
must be checked for leaks. All oil port plugs and securing screws are correctly fitted and tightened.
7
ATTENTION
Should, at any time during commissioning or operation, the bearing temperature exceed that specified by Zollern the machine should
be stopped and the causes investigated.
8 Maintenance
The oil level must be checked at regular intervals with the machine at a standstill. The minimum oil level is where the oil only reaches
the lower part of the sight level glass.
The bearing housing must be kept clean as heat transfer can be hindered by dirt and dust leading to bearing overheating and
subsequent damage leading to failure.
Should, during operation, there be unusual variations in bearing temperature or oil level the causes must be investigated.
Our technicians are available should any assistance be required.
8.2 Inspection
Should unusual oil colour changes or increases in temperature be apparent an inspection must be made. Remove the upper half of
the bearing housing (1.1) leaving the lower half in place. Prior to disassembly thoroughly clean the bearing casing such that no dirt
can accidentally enter the bearing itself.
8.3 Disassembly
Loosen the fixing screws to the upper half of the bearing (40.1) and the split line screws (1.3) and the screws (15.2) on the
upper half of the seal carrier.
Remove the upper part of the seal carrier (15.1).
Remove the bearing shield (depending on the machine shield design) from the upper casing. Loosen flange fixing screws (30.4)
and split line screws (30.5) of the upper part of the machine shield (30.1) and remove it.
Raise and remove the upper casing half (1.1).
Dismantle the floating labyrinth seals (20.1 & 21.1) by raising the upper half and tilting it then open the spring key and dismantle
together with the lower half.
Carefully raise the upper half of the bearing shell (5.1). Release the loose oil ring (10) screws, separate and remove both parts.
Remove any probes or sensors if present.
Raise the shaft far enough to give sufficient clearance to turn the lower shell (5.2) half through 180° and lift it away.

9 Transport and Storage
During transportation of the machine the bearings should never be subject to shock while loading, and must be protected from
environmental humidity. Care must be taken to prevent dry sliding within the bearing. Storage facilities must be dry and not subject to
severe variations in temperature or humidity. In good conditions the bearings can be stored for up to one year without attention or
inspection.
