3. Overview, functional Pressure-relief element (Fig. 3/5) The pressure-relief element discharges the pressure in the description main line of the lubrication system. This relieves the pressure in the entire lubrication system. The single-line metering devices 3.1 Pumps with plastic reservoir (e.g., SL) can transfer the pre-metered lubricant for the next lubrication process.

The follower plate is available for plastic reservoirs up to a The reed contact for the empty signal is located on the bottom reservoir capacity of 20 L.
Used for checking the fill level in the reservoir. Fig. 8 3.2.2 Pumps with 100 liter sheet steel reservoir Fig. 7 Wiper Wiper (Fig. 8/7) The rotary knob (Fig. 8/8) can be used to turn the wiper (Fig. 8/7) on the inside of the transparent plastic cover (PMMA) to remove any grease adhesions which may be present.
3.3 Electrical connections 3.4 Principle of operation of the Fig. 9 intermittent empty signal Components of the intermittent low-level signal Fig. 10 Components The intermittent low-level signal is contactless in operation and is comprised essentially of the following parts: • Fixed magnetic switch (Fig. 10/2) in the reservoir bottom •...

1. If there is no lubricant present to act against the deflected Grease reservoir empty baffle plate, the baffle plate remains deflected out (Fig. 12/1). 2. This causes the magnet (Fig. 12/3) to move along the outer Fig. 12 circular track, with the effect that the reed switch (Fig. 12/2) is now actuated, triggering a low-level signal pulse.
3.5 Operational limits of the intermittent empty signal For the correct functioning of the intermittent empty signal, the following lubricant consistencies must be maintained. The correct functioning of the intermittent empty signal is not guaranteed above the specified temperature range. The lower temperature ranges are contingent on the suitability of the respective lubricant for these temperatures.
4. Technical data 4.1 General technical data NOTE The specified ratings apply to grease of NLGI Grade 2, measured at 20°C, 100 bar back pressure. Pressures or temperatures that vary from this could cause the delivery rate to vary. The design of a system should be based on the value specified. Table 4 Technical data of the pump Parameter...

4.6 Nominal delivery rates NOTE The specified nominal delivery rates per stroke and pump element refer to NLGI grade 2 lubricating greases at an ambient temperature of 20 °C [68 °F] and a back pressure of 100 bar [1450 psi] at the pump element. Differences in operating conditions or a different pump configuration will lead to changes in the motor speed and thus to a change in the delivery rate per unit of time.
4.6.2 Delivery rate charts for typical NLGI 2 lubricants Fig. 19 Fig. 18 Delivery rate chart for high-temperature grease Delivery rate chart for low-temperature grease NOTE The values specified in the delivery rate charts represent the average value between different high-temperature and low-temperature greases.
4.7 Usable reservoir volume NOTE The usable reservoir volume in the reservoir design without follower plate is strongly dependent on the consistency (NLGI Grade) of the lubricant used and the ambient temperature. With high consistency and a low working temperature, more lubricant typically adheres to the inner surfaces of the reservoir and the pump, leaving less lubricant available for feeding.

4.8 Lubricant requirement when an empty pump is filled for the first time The following volumes of lubricant are required in order to fill a new empty pump up to the -MAX- mark on the reservoir. NOTE The difference between the lubricant volume required for initial filling and the nominal volume of the reservoir is due to the filling of the space in the pump housing up to the -MIN- mark on the reservoir.
