Introduction Thank You System Introduction Thank you for your purchase of the Unist Coolubricator The Coolubricator gives simple, precise lubrication. ™ ™ Please take the time to read this operation manual to take Two types of pumps are available: atomizing pumps that full advantage of your new Coolubricator provide an air and oil mix, and oil-only pumps.
™ the flexibility to configure a unit exactly as needed. Because of this, there are thousands of Coolubricator ™ configurations. They may look different because of the presence or absence of an enclosure or the size of the reservoir, but regardless of the look, all Coolubricators ™...

™ controlled with a solenoid valve, a manual slide valve, Position & Mount System or an air pilot valve. If the Coolubricator is to be turned ™ Mount the system in close proximity to the machine, on whenever the machine is operated, the solenoid where it is convenient to access and where there are valve is wired to the operation circuit on the machine.
Caution: Do not directly connect switch to inductive or other high current devices Attention: Ensure air pressure is not present when connecting the air pilot signal to the Coolubricator ™ air pilot valve as this could cause personal injury or...
[0.34-0.69 bar] no control valve is present. Filtered air should be used for the air supply. Attention: Use caution when connecting the Coolubricator to a compressed air source. Only Figure 28: Bleeding air trap ™ qualified individuals should make this connection.
System Installation Position & Install Nozzles Keep the nozzle as close as possible to the cutting edge, ideally within 2” [50.8 mm]. The longer the distance that the nozzle needs to spray, the more airflow is needed to carry aerosol and the higher the likelihood of an unwanted mist being generated.
System Startup Optional air pilot valve Turning The System On & Off The Coolubricator is turned on or off using a manual ™ slide valve, a solenoid valve, or an air pilot valve. If the unit is equipped with a manual slide valve, it is turned on and off by sliding the valve to the desired position.
System Startup Prime The Pumps The priming procedure may need to be performed again if there is a lot of air trapped in the fluid path between the To prime the system, use a 5/16” nut driver to turn reservoir and the bottom pump. the drain plug on the bottom pump two turns counterclockwise to bleed trapped air.
System Startup Adjust Stroke Frequency Stroke frequency is the best way to adjust the amount of fluid being applied. If less fluid is desired, decrease the cycle rate but ensure there is still a continuous spray with no pulsing. If more fluid is desired, increase the cycle rate.
System Startup Note: Use the minimum amount of air necessary to deliver the fluid to the point of application. Excess air flow will cause undesirable fogging! Figure 45: Approximate air metering screw air flow rate...
Nozzles Nozzle Styles Stainless Steel Stainless steel nozzles offer very good rigidity; they are Flexible Plastic not easily bent into, or out of shape. This makes them Plastic nozzles are easy to aim to where the spray the preferred choice when the nozzle will be put in one is needed, and there is no work-hardening on the position, and the force expected to be exerted on the nozzle if it is repeatedly bent into different shapes.

Troubleshooting Fluid flows continuously out of a nozzle Attention: While troubleshooting it may be necessary without pumps cycling to access the electrical solenoid on the Coolubricator ™ Only qualified individuals should perform such work • Perform a pump rebuild to replace outlet check and control power to the Coolubricator .
