DIRECT LUBRICATION TO THE POINT (MULTI-LINE) 2.2. The OmegaPUMP electric pump lubricates the friction point directly, without the need to use other flow metering devices. This means the product can provide economical, versatile and easy-to-use lubrication. The OmegaPUMP is designed to feed single-point lubrication systems in vehicles, plants and various kinds of machines that use grease.
The electrical connection provides a DIN 43650 connector for power and two M12 connectors for input and output signals. There is an electronic control board that can be used to set different types of lubrication cycles and controls using a touchscreen display interface.

7.2.2. FIRST FILLING/REPLACEMENT OF PRELOADED CARTRIDGE (CARTRIDGE VERSION) The pump is supplied without a cartridge and completely empty. When the pump is ordered, the cartridges that will be used must also be ordered based on the type of grease foreseen. Provide an extra cartridge which will be used for the first filling. For the first filling (with pump completely empty), you must proceed as follows: ...

8. PRINCIPLE OF LUBRICATION CONTROL This version of the pump includes an electronic card for control of lubrication. The control board located inside the motor housing guarantees full autonomy in the management of pump lubrication cycles, alarms and controls. Additionally, the pump is equipped with two digital inputs, for control of the lubrication cycle, and two digital outputs for monitoring lubrication status and alarms.

9.3 DESCRIPTION OF THE “EVENTS LOG” DISPLAY Clicking on the button at the top left, you can view the “events log” menu. This menu lets you view all the operations carried out on the pump, also allowing you to filter the events by alarm. For example, clicking on the red dot, only the events connected with alarms, the yellow includes both events related to alarms and those related to warnings such as the minimum level signal and filtering the blue colour, all of the operations that have been carried out will be displayed.

10. APPLICATION EXAMPLES The following describes some examples of use of the operating mode described in the above paragraphs. This section will introduce some of the pump’s main basic and advanced parameters. For a complete description of the parameters, refer to the tables in paragraph 7.5.4.5. 10.1 SYSTEMS WITH SYSTEM 33/LINE PRESSURE SWITCH In the case of systems using System 33 or a line Pressure Switch, a typical application can be implemented using...

Input 1, if activated, switches the pump into Suspension mode (Input 1: Suspension.) This mode suspends the operation of the pump for the duration for which Input 1 is active. After deactivation of Input 1, the pump’s operation resumes from the point where it was suspended.
A diagnostics table is illustrated below, where the main faults, probable causes and possible solutions to be immediately activated are indicated (contact Dropsa). In case of any issues and/or problems that cannot be resolved, contact the Dropsa Engineering Department rather than searching for the fault by disassembling components of the pump.
12.1. SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE The periodic checks are listed on the table below, as well as the frequency and the operation that maintenance personnel must carry out in order to guarantee the efficiency of the system over time.
