SINGLE-LINE LUBRICATION SYSTEMS
Regardless of the application, the principle of single-line lubrication remains the same: a central pump station automatically delivers lubricant through a single supply line to the lubricant metering device. Each metering device serves only one lubrication point and may be adjusted to deliver the precise amount of grease or oil required.
Systems can service one machine, different zones on one machine or even several separate machines.
All the single-line metering devices work nearly in parallel. Two working principles can be used:
Pre-lubrication metering devices:
A pump feeds the lubricant through the main line to the lubricant metering device. These discharge a prestored amount of lubricant to the lube points as a result of the pump’s pressure. The main line is then relieved of pressure so that the metered lubricant can be shifted to the accumulator inside the device. It is then delivered in the next lube cycle.
SINGLE-LINE SYSTEMS | FIELD OPTIONS
SINGLE-LINE LBURICATION SYSTEMS FOR GREASE UP TO NLGI 3
For heavy applications like mining. Major food, beverage, oil/gas, cement, steel, construction and rail customers also rely on SKF’s single-line products for grease.
SINGLE-LINE LUBRICATION SYSTEMS FOR OIL & FLUID GREASE
For applications in machine tool, textile or printing. Small-to-medium line length and quantities of lubricant per lubrication point.
