JACKON INSULATION NV / MOBIL SHC GEAR 220

JACKON INSULATION NV / MOBIL SHC GEAR 220

Situation
Jackon Insulation is one of the leading manufacturers of XPS insulation solutions for users in construction and industry.
Within the framework of ISO 50001, Jackon Insulation nv is always looking for potential energy-saving measures in
their production process.

Recommendation
Ingelbeen-Soete bvba, authorized Mobil distributor, recommended switching from mineral gearbox oils ISO VG220
and 320 to synthetic PAO Mobil SHC Gear 220 on extrusion production lines. Because of its lower friction coefficient
and stronger lubrication film, Mobil SHC Gear 220 is able to reduce gearbox friction losses, making them more efficient
to operate with energy savings, and also replace two lubricants by one.

Results and savings
A test was set up on 1 production line, whereby Ingelbeen-Soete bvba commited to carry out power measurements on
this installation before and after the oil change. The results showed average energy savings of 2.55 %, resulting
in annual savings of EUR 4 162 and reduced annual CO2 emissions of 7.3 tonnes on this one production line.
This result convinced Jackon Insulation to implement the Mobil SHC Gear 220 on all their production lines to maximize
environmental and economic savings.
