Centralized Lubrication Systems
Systems, Symbols

A centralized lubrication system performs
the task of supplying individual lube points
or groups of points with varying amounts of
exactly metered lubricant from one central
location to meet their different needs.
Oil and grease of NLGI grades 000 to 3 are
used as the lubricant.

Care taken during the installation, start-up
and maintenance of the central lubrication
system will help to enhance the operating
readiness and life of your machines. The
central lubrication system must be given the
same attention as all the other sophisticated
equipment on a machine.

The many years of experience we have had
in the field of central lubrication technology
for machines and systems will allow us to
help you solve the problems you encounter
when planning and using such installations.
Centralized lubrication systems are classified
in accordance with their function and type of
lubricant distribution.
We’ll be happy to advise you.
