General information
What you should know about operating and setting LUB-V:
LUB-V is suitable as a multi-point lubricator for one or two lubrication points. However,
depending on the specific application, LUB-V can also reliably and cleanly supply a limited
number of lubrication points with lubricant. Accessories from the manufacturer (e. g.
splitters or progressive distributors) can be connected to LUB-V. If necessary, changes
must be made to LUB-V settings to ensure safe and reliable operation.
LUB-V is a cycle controlled lubricator which works time-based via the integrated micro-
electronics and is connected to a 24 VDC power supply. LUB-V cyclically delivers a
defined quantity of lubricant from the cartridge to the outlet. Two operation modes can
be selected.
Hour mode -h-
allows setting the number of cycles (c) and a pause time (h) between
two dispensing cycles in hours. Pause times (h) between 1...240 hour(s) and cycles (c)
between 1...10 can be set.
Additionally, LUB-S-V can be embedded into a programmable logic controller (PLC)
which sends orders and controls LUB-S-V in
impulse mode
(see chapters 6 and 8).
How to switch to operation mode PUL is described in detail in chap. 6.3.8.
A dispensing cycle consists of at least one (1) dispense (stroke) and can consist of a
maximum of ten (10) dispenses. Up to ten (10) dispenses per outlet are made in direct
succession. After the end of the lubrication cycle LUB-V rests until the set pause time h
has elapsed and then automatically carries out the next lubrication cycle.
The disposable interchangeable cartridge with 400 ml lubricant guarantees a controlled
and constant quality of the lubricant and is filled bubble-free. LUB-V allows a high supply
security of the lubrication point and prevents failures.
LUB-V cannot be used without a lubricant cartridge. Depending on the version ordered
the cartridge can already be included in the scope of delivery and may already be
connected and installed in LUB-V.
The respective conditions of LUB-V can be seen in the LCD. It additionally enables the
optical recognition of the condition by means of coloured LEDs.
If you have any questions about your application and the correct settings for LUB-V
please contact the manufacturer (chapter I.II).
