  • Page 2: Drive Unit

    The system consists of a drive unit and a replaceable lubricant cartridge. It is possible to equip Timken M-Power with a lubricant cartridge of 2.03 fl. oz. (60 cc), 4.05 fl. oz. (120 cc), or 8.45 fl. oz. (250 cc).
  • Page 3 IMPULSE MODE (ONLY WITH 120 CC LUBRICANT CARTRIDGE) As soon as power (7-30 V DC max.) is supplied, Timken M-Power will discharge the set amount. To get another discharge cycle, the power must be interrupted for at least 5 seconds and then supplied again.

  • Page 4: Storage Requirements

    71mm FIELDS OF APPLICATION Timken M-Power is intended where lubrication is to take place only while the machine is running and where a status report back to the machine is desired. Timken M-Power may be used to lubricate roller and sliding bearings, drive and conveyor chains, guideways and open gears.
  • Page 5 PREPARATION Before initial installation of the lubricator, the lubrication points and any extensions must be adequately pre-lubricated with the same lubricant that is contained in Timken M-Power. For this purpose, we offer a 400g lubrication cartridge for grease guns. APPLICATION Connect the cable to the wiring board according to the instructions provided in the table “Electronic Control”...

  • Page 6: Electronic Control

    ELECTRONIC CONTROL The signals for operating status: “Timken M-Power works,” “discharge in progress,” “malfunctions,” and “lube cartridge empty” can be processed as LED voltage signals at the connection cable (load capacity max. 10 mA) via PLC. The power supply must be between 7 – 25 V DC = (update: 30 V DC = max.).

  • Page 7: Troubleshooting Guide

    When the LED displays red/green (lubricant cartridge empty) or red (malfunction), then each lubricator must be checked at the lubrication point in order to find out the reason for the signal. (Parallel connection of Timken M-Power units make it impossible to individually analyze them.)
  • Page 8 Case A: An almost empty lubricant cartridge is replaced by a partially filled one. The new lubricant cartridge discharges only for the discharge time that was left over by the original lubricant cartridge. Timken M-Power shuts off automatically and sig- nals “end of discharge”.

  • Page 9: Service Tip

    SERVICE TIP You have the option to return the empty Timken M-Power to us. We will change the lubricant cartridge and adjust the dis- charge to your specification. We will dispose of the used parts in an environmentally safe manner or energetically recycled.
  • Page 10 In addition, do not attempt to open or service the battery pack or lubricant refill packs as doing so may release harmful chemicals. • Only use Timken-certified attachments and accessories to connect the M-Power device to the equipment application. Failure to do so may damage the device and the equipment and may result in bodily injury or damage to the equipment.
