Safety Instructions
Appropriate Use
Use SSV D lubricant metering devices only for dispensing
lubricants in centralized lubrication systems.
Suitable Lubricants
The progressive metering devices model SSV D can be
used for dispensing
- mineral oils of at least 40 mm²/s (cST) or
- greases up to the penetration class NLGI 2
6001a02
IMPORTANT
It must nevertheless be ensured that the
oils or greases used do not alter their con-
sistency significantly in the course of time
or under the influence of temperature or
pressure.
General Safety Instructions
The progressive centralized lubrication system connected
to a pump must always be secured with a pressure relief
valve.
Lincoln SSV D lubricant metering devices are state of the
art.
Incorrect use may result in bearing damage caused by
poor or excessive lubrication.
Each outlet needed must be provided with a check valve
in order to be able to feed the lube points with the precise
amount of lubricant and avoid poor lubrication.
In the case of the metering devices model SSV D 6 to
SSV D 22 outlets 1 and 2 must never be closed.
Outlets 1 and 2 of the special metering devices model
SSVD 6/5 to 22/21 are connected via a channel (marked
by a double arrow). One of the two outlets must be
closed. This means, the lubricant quantity of the closed
outlet is lead to the opposite outlet (see page 17, fig. 15).
1013A94
CAUTION!
Damage due to poor lubrication!
If, however, both outlets are connected to
a lube point the bypass metering device
SSV D 6/5 to 22/21 cannot work to 100 %.
The lubricant follows the way of the lowest
resistance. It reaches the lube points of
outlets 1 and 2 only insufficiently or not at
all.
Unauthorized modifications or changes to an installed
system are not admissible. Any modification must be sub-
ject to prior consultation with the manufacturer of the lu-
brication system.
Use only original Lincoln spare parts (see Parts Catalog)
or the parts approved by Lincoln.
Regulations for Prevention of Accidents
Adhere to the regulations for prevention of accidents that are
effective in the country where the system is to be used.
Operation, Repair and Maintenance
Repair should only be performed by:
- authorized and
- instructed personnel
who are familiar with centralized lubrication systems.
Installation
Install the metering devices at a suitable location in ac-
cordance with the lubrication diagram.
It is recommended that the metering devices be installed
in such a way that the outlets are not close to the chassis
or the attaching plate. This will facilitate troubleshooting in
case the system is blocked.
Main metering devices with indicator pin must be installed
in such a way that the indicator pin is easily visible.
If push-in type fittings are used, note the following
For
the
metering
device inlet
use only
push-in type
fittings
(R 1/8) with
reinforced collets
and sealing ring.
For
the
outlet tube fittings
of the
SSV metering device
(M 10x1) depending on the design of the lubricant line, for
example
- for high-pressure hose (NW 4.1 x 2.3 mm)
use only
valve bodies with reinforced collets
- for pressure plastic tube (ø 6 x 1.5 mm)
use only
valve bodies with knurled collets
6001a02
NOTE
In the case of construction machines or
agricultural machines use high-pressure
plastic hoses for the lubricant feed lines. In
such cases the outlet fittings of the secon-
dary metering devices and the connection
fittings to the lubricant points must have a
reinforced collets.
Use only main lines and feed lines specified by
Lincoln and adhere to the specified system pressures.
1013A94
CAUTION!
Danger of injury in the case of serious
corrosion of metering device surfaces:
An increasing corrosion of the surfaces will
cause the balls pressed in to lose their
hold. Under pressure they may suddenly
burst out and cause injuries.
For applications in corrosive environments,
use metering devices in stainless steel
version only.
