SKF and obtaining written permission. All products manufactured by SKF are not approved for use in conjunction with gases, liquefied gases, pressurized gases in solu- tion and fluids with a vapor pressure exceeding normal atmospheric pressure (1013 mbar) by more than 0,5 bar at their maximum per- missible temperature.
(e.g. 'oil separation' behavior) in centralized lubrication systems. 2.5 Danger relating to lubricants You can request an overview of lubricant tests offered by SKF from our Service Center. 2.3 Approved lubricants DANGER! Centralized lubrication systems must be absolutely leak- free.
3 Design and function 3.1 Construction The grease injection system type GVP-S-034-3D et 3G contains all mechanic, hydraulic, pneumatic and electrical components required for the operation of a lubrication system for conveyor chains (RoDip-3). The main components of the system are: •...
3.2 Function The function principle of the grease injection system for the lubrica- tion of conveyor chains is more or less the same for all systems († fig. 2). However some models differ from others by the type of lubrication points, the number of injection heads, etc.

4.3 Hydraulic connection A pump type PVP.3 with integrated reservoir is directly mounted on the system and supplies lubricant to the lubrication system. There is no hydraulic connection necessary except for the filling of the PVP.3 pump reservoir († § 6.3.1 Filling). DANGER! The maximum lubricant pressure indicated for system operation must not be exceeded.
4.3 Mechanical adjustments The position of the lubrication system must be mechanically adjust to optimize the lubrication process. Several mechanical adjustment have to be carried out: • Position adjustment • Pick-up system adjustment 4.3.1 Position adjustment With the position setting it is possible to center the injection head of the lubrication system with the greaser of the lubrication point.

4.3.2 Pick-up system Fig. 10 The lubrication unit has two pick-up systems for rollers and pins. Roller pick-up system DANGER! The setting of the pick-up systems has to be made only when the air supply is off. First identify the two pick-up systems and then proceed to adjustment.
5 Transport, delivery and storage 5.1 Transport SKF products are packaged in accordance with the regulations of the recipient country and in accordance with DIN ISO 9001. Our prod- ucts must be transported with care. Products must be protected against mechanical influences such as impacts. Transport packaging must be labeled with the information 'Do not drop!'.
The operating manual of the AEP3 control unit is deliv- ered with the lubrication system. If you do not have access 6.2.1 Proximity switch adjustment to this manual, you can request it from SKF. The GVP system has three sensors: • An inductive proximity switch for the pins •...
6.3 PVP.3 pump 6.3.1 Filling The lubrication system is equipped with a pneumatic pump and a 8 kg lubricant reservoir. The reservoir is made of transparent plastic for a visual lubricant level monitoring. It is also equipped with a min. level switch.
6.4 Modification of the injector metered Fig. 14 volume 0,5 cm 1 cm The GVP lubrication system is delivered with a fixed metered vol- ume. It is possible to modify later this metered volume. Four differ- ent metered volumes are available: 0,33 ; 0,5 ; 0,75 or 1 cm injection.
Page 20
Fig. 17 The lubrication system GVP must be disconnected from the power supply and not under pressure when modifying the metered volume. Therefore turn off the power supply and depressurize the system. • Check the GVP unit is off and the air supply closed. •...
Lubricants can contaminate the ground and watercours- es. Lubricants must be used and disposed of in compliance with the rules. Instructions and local regulations must be observed when handling lubricants. The system can also be taken back by SKF for disposal if the costs are covered.
