Installation
Grounding
Securely mount and ground the lubricator before
operation.
Installation Procedure
The uppercase letters used in the following instructions
refer to
1.
Mount the reservoir on a sturdy, flat surface that can
support the weight of the reservoir when filled with
lubricant. Install so that the Fill Cover (C) and the
Drain Plug (B) are easily accessible after
installation, and that the Sight Glass (A) is visible.
NOTE: See
Reservoir and Mounting Dimensions
section, page 15, for mounting hole layout.
2.
Install the mounting brackets and tighten securely.
3.
Install the GBL 7500 pump(s) into the box. Tighten
the Pump Mounting Screws (torque 110 in-lb +/- 10
in-lb, 12.43 N•m +/- 1.13 N•m).
NOTE: Up to six pumps may be installed. Refer to the
GBL 7500 manual for output adjustment and pump
information.
4.
Remove the Fill Cover (C) and fill the reservoir with
clean, filtered fluid until it reaches the FULL line on
the Sight Glass (A).
NOTE:
•
Filter the oil with a minimum 25 micron strainer.
Depending upon machine requirements, it may be
necessary to maintain a higher cleanliness level.
•
A blank plate is provided to install over any unused
pump stations.
•
Refer to the pump instruction manual for installation
and priming instructions. See
Graco pump model information.
Drive Mechanism
NOTE: A 1/2 in. diameter shaft is included to connect
the lubricator to a rotary power source.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to
ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire
for the electric current.
Mount the reservoir securely so is unable to move
during operation. Failure to do so could result in injury
or equipment damage.
Moving parts can pinch, cut or amputate fingers and
other body parts.
•
Install protective guards around all drive
components.
•
Do not operate equipment if the protective guards
are not installed.
NOTICE
To avoid damage to the box lubricator, do not exceed
the maximum recommended speed of the lubricator
input shaft of 1800 rpm.
