2.10 The optional distribution block monitoring switch
The OnePlus automatic greasing system can be equipped with a switch for
monitoring one of the distribution blocks. When this switch does not change state
during a number of successive greasing cycles, it will warn the operator by
switching on the indicator lamp on the dashboard continuously. This indicator
lamp is delivered in the optional block switch kit.
Figure 2.9 Optional distribution block monitoring switch.
ATTENTION
Please be aware that at low temperatures it will take more successive cycles
to cause a state change of the block switch. We therefore advise to choose
a multiply factor from the table below in order to multiply the number of
cycles in between 2 state changes of the block switch, found in the system
you want to program at ambient temperature (±15 to 20°C).
* Mentioned factors are based on a system with the block switch mounted to a secondary
distribution block and the use of Greenlube EP-2 grease.
