8. Function and design of the system:
The central lubrication system into which an electrical pump EP-1 or FKGGM-EP is installed, is a
progressive system. Progressive means that the lubrication points are lubricated in sequence.
The sequential lubrication means a pressure relief valve can easily monitor the progressive
central lubrication system.
The central lubrication pump EP-1 delivers the lubricant to the main distributor. The main
distributor’s task is to distribute the lubricant to the secondary distributors in the right proportions.
The secondary distributors then deliver the lubricant to the individual lubrication points.
Should a lubrication point do not receive lubricant from the distributor, the system would block
and a pressure of up to 280 bar is built up in the line system. Does the system block but is
nevertheless operating properly, the lubricant comes out of the pressure relief valve of the pump.
This serves for the system protection and monitoring.
