Correct installation of perma lubrication systems

perma lubrication systems are extremely flexible in their use for many applications, e.g. conveyors, electric motors, pumps, fans and blowers.
Automatic lubrication systems can be mounted directly into most lubrications points. Remote mounting is possible with grease lines.

Checklist lubrication points

Decide which mounting type is suitable

With direct mounting you can take advantage of the reliable function without spending much time and effort for mounting. The lubrication system is directly screwed into the lubrication point and ensures high process reliability by continuously supplying fresh lubricant.

Remote mounting might be required if your answer to one of the following questions is „YES“:

Is it necessary to remove protective covers or screens in order to reach the lubrication point?
Is it difficult or dangerous to reach the lubrication point during plant operation?
Is the lubrication point subject to strong vibrations or high temperatures which may impair or damage the lubrication system?
Is access permission required to reach lubrication points in secured areas or at great heights?
Is the lubrication system exposed to the following:
- Large amounts of water (e.g. high pressure cleaning)
- Aggressive media from production (e.g. pumps in the chemical industry)
- Damage from solid substances (e.g. falling rocks in quarries)

Benefits: Direct mounting

Little installation work required
Automatic lubrication systems can be screwed into position by hand
Immediate supply of lubrication points with fresh lubricant

Benefits: Remote mounting

Relocate lubrication point to a safe area
Vibrations at the lubrication point can be disregarded
Automatic lubrication systems can be exchanged while the machine is in operation
