Subject:
180S Gravity Feed Lubricator for Can Feed Chain
Purpose:
Minimize expendable oil loss
Benefit:
The Gravity Feed Lubricator has substantial advantages over the existing sprocket lubricator.
The Gravity Feed Lubricator is a separate unit compared to the traditional chain sprocket lubri-
cator line fed by the automatic oil lubrication system. The Gravity Feed Lubricator does not
drain the oil recovery system, thus preventing oil loss. The Gravity Feed Lubricator can utilize a
lighter and less expensive oil.
Description:
The Gravity Feed Lubricator consist of a oil canister with electrical solenoid mounted on the
outside top of enclosure for quick level visibility and plumbed by stainless steel line through
enclosure to the sprocket. The Gravity Feed Lubricator solenoid is programmed to operate
during “Jog” or “Run” commands only.
