SKF KFG Series General Information Manual

Reservoir pump units of the
KFG series
for grease lubrication systems in rotary application
General Information
Pump units of the KFG, KFGS and KFGC (CAN
bus) series are electrically driven reservoir
pump units available with or without an inte-
grated control unit. A patented grease follo-
wer system allows the pump units to be used
in rotary applications, so the pump is always
able to supply on-demand lubrication to cen-
tralized lubrication systems with progressive
feeders and to single-line systems. The pump
units differ in terms of the size and type of lu-
bricant reservoir, the lubricant filling and their
control and function monitoring.Powerful

CAN bus versions allow one unit and a special
valve to supply up to four independent zones
according to demand.
Application
Pump units of the KFG, KFGS and KFGC (CAN
bus) series are utilized in grease lubrication
systems. Fields of application include, for exa-
mple, wind energy systems and special pur-
pose machinery.
