ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
Positioning the PVB distributor:
o
When installing the distributors it must be ensured that they are positioned as close as possible and in the centre
of the connected lubrication points (as far as possible).
o
The PVB distributors must be easily accessible for maintenance and monitoring purposes.
Fitting the pipelines or hoses:
WARNING
o
The lubrication lines must be filled with lubricant before fitting.
o
Only clean grease or oil may be used!
Particles of dirt can block the distributor and cause the system to fail!
o
Cleanliness must be maintained during installation!
o
The pipelines must be checked for any contamination (e.g. shavings, etc.)and cleaned if necessary before being
filled with lubricant and connected to the distributor.
Commissioning:
o
Ensure that the distributor and all the connected pipes are correctly installed before you operate the distributor and
lubrication system.
o
Ensure that the pump that is connected cannot exceed the permitted operating pressure for the distributor or that it is
equipped with a pressure relief valve. Especial care should be taken when using manual lube guns. Most of these can
easily produce a pressure of over 500 bar.
o
Monitoring the system pressure with a manometer or pressure switch is recommended.
o
Once fitted, check the proper operation and impermeability of the system at each installed distributor and lubrication
point.
Example of installation:
Continuous operation:
The distributor is designed for continuous operation. Care should be taken during the entire operating phase that the
specified operating pressure and temperature range are not exceeded. Only approved lubricant which is free of
contamination may be used.
Disassembly:
The distributor must only be disassembled when it is at a standstill and depressurized.
