LUBRICATION
Pneumatically actuated devices require clean, pressure regulated, and lubricated air for maximum performance
and long life. The most effective and economical way to lubricate the Metric FMCBE is with an Air Line Lubricator,
which injects oil into the pressurized air, forcing an oil mist into the air chamber.
Locate the lubricator above and within ten feet of the Metric FMCBE, and use a low viscosity oil such as SAE-10.
Synthetic lubricants are not recommended.
LUBRICATOR DRIP RATE SETTINGS
NOTE: These Settings are for Nexen supplied lubricators. If you are not using a Nexen lubricator, calibration must
replicate the following procedure.
1.
Close and disconnect the air line from the unit.
2.
Turn the lubricator Adjustment Knob clockwise three
complete turns.
3.
Open the air line.
4.
Close the air line to the unit when a drop of oil
forms in the Lubricator Sight Gage.
5.
Connect the air line to the unit.
6.
Turn the Lubricator Adjustment Knob
counterclockwise until closed.
7.
Turn the Lubricator Adjustment Knob clockwise one-
third turn.
