Overview

This document describes the Lincoln Industrial Models 94822 Chassis Lube Electric Grease Pump, Series "A," a key component in progressive-type centralized lubrication systems.

Function Description

The Lincoln Industrial Models 94822 Chassis Lube Electric Grease Pump is an electrically operated pump designed for use in progressive centralized lubrication systems. Its primary function is to supply lubricant to various lubrication points via progressive metering devices. The pump incorporates a low-level sensor that triggers a blinking LED light on the circuit board when lubricant levels are low. This signal can also be sent to an optional dash-mounted light for remote indication.

The pump's lubrication cycles are controlled by an internal microprocessor. A proximity switch, installed on one of the system's secondary divider valves, is crucial for signaling the completion of a lubrication cycle. If this signal is not received within 30 minutes, a fault signal will be generated. This monitoring feature helps ensure proper pump operation and detects blocked or broken supply lines. The pump assembly consists of a pump housing, an electric gear motor, the microprocessor, and a plastic reservoir with a stirring paddle. Its high operating pressure capability allows it to supply lubricants up to NLGI #2 grease.

Usage Features

Mounting: The pump should be mounted vertically on an even surface using three bolts. It is important to select an easily accessible location that allows access to the timer and the lubricant reservoir filler fitting.

Filling the Reservoir: The reservoir is filled through a grease fitting located at its base. It can be filled using a hand-operated grease pump, a pneumatic pump, or an electronic transfer pump. Users must exercise caution when filling with pneumatic or electric transfer pumps to avoid bursting the reservoir. The reservoir should be refilled when the grease reaches the "MIN" mark and filled up to the "MAX" mark.

Priming the System:

  • Pump & Supply Line: After filling the reservoir with the recommended lubricant, loosen the supply line fitting. Operate the pump until lubricant flows from the outlet, then tighten the fitting.
  • Feed Lines: Pre-fill each feed line with lubricant before connecting it to the outlet of the divider valve and bearing.

Operational Test / Triggering an Additional Lubrication Cycle: An operational test can be performed to check the pump's function. If necessary, switch on the battery voltage and the driving switch. To check if power is applied to the printed circuit board, observe if the left-hand LED (1, Fig. 14) is lit. Press the pushbutton (> 2 seconds) to trigger an additional lubrication cycle until the right-hand LED (3) lights up. The right-hand LED indicates operating time, monitoring time (30 minutes in case of a fault), and faults. When an additional lubrication cycle is triggered, a shorter pause time occurs, followed by a normal lubrication cycle. Additional lubrication cycles can be triggered at any time.

Setting the Pause Time: The pause time, which determines the frequency of lubrication cycles, is adjustable. It can be set to 15 different settings using the blue rotary switch. To set the pause time, the cover on the pump housing must be removed. After setting, the cover should be screwed back on. The pause time starts and stops via the machine contact or ignition switch. If the setting is modified within the pause time, the printed circuit board adopts the new value only at the end of the operating time. The pause time should be adjusted according to the specific lubrication cycles.

Proximity Switch: A proximity switch (initiator) installed on a metering device monitors piston movements and signals the completion of the pump operating time. This ensures all pistons of the metering device have dispensed their lubricant quantity. The operating time depends on the system's lubricant requirement and the location of the proximity switch. During the operating time, the signal lamp is permanently lit.

Monitoring Time: A fixed monitoring time of maximum 30 minutes is implemented. Normally, the monitoring time ends concurrently with the operating time. If no switching-off signal is received from the proximity switch by the printed circuit board within 30 minutes, a fault signal will occur, indicated by the signal lamp flashing.

Maintenance Features

Functional Check: Each time the machine contact (external contact) or the driving switch is switched on, a functional check of the drive motor and signal lamp automatically takes place. During this check, the motor runs for 0.1 second (causing the stirring paddle to rotate slightly), and the signal lamp lights up for 2 seconds. If a fault is detected, the signal lamp flashes.

Fault Indication: The signal lamp or LED (Fig. 9) indicates the operating state of the centralized lubrication system and flashes with different frequencies to indicate faults.

  • Drive Motor Defective: If the motor does not run or the feed line is damaged, the signal lamp flashes (1 second "ON" - 1 second "OFF") after 2 seconds.
  • Lubrication Circuit Malfunctioning: Faults such as blocked lubrication points, blocked metering devices, main line interruptions, air in the system, or an empty reservoir are indicated by the signal lamp flashing (0.5 second "ON" - 1 second "OFF"). These faults cause the pistons in the monitored metering device to stop.
  • Low-level Control (Reservoir Empty): The signal lamp flashes (0.5 second "ON" - 0.5 second "OFF") when the reservoir is empty. The low-level signal is converted into a flashing signal after 6 motor revolutions. In case of a malfunction, the proximity switch cannot record piston movements, and the pump will not switch off. The printed circuit board switches off the pump at the end of the monitoring time, a fault signal occurs, and the pump will not start automatically.

Acknowledging and Remedying a Fault: When the pushbutton is pressed briefly (< 1 second), the fault is acknowledged, and the lamp stops flashing and remains permanently lit. Acknowledged faults are stored even after the driving switch or machine contact is switched off and will flash again upon switching on. To remedy a fault:

  1. Check the central lubrication pump and the connected system for faults.
  2. Eliminate the cause of the fault.
  3. Switch on the pump again by triggering an additional lubrication cycle (press the pushbutton >2 seconds).
  4. Once the fault is eliminated, the signal lamp will extinguish at the end of the lubrication cycle. Important: After a fault, the pump will not start automatically; an additional lubrication cycle must be triggered.

Troubleshooting:

  • Pump Motor Does Not Run:
    • Cause: Voltage supply interrupted, voltage supply to the printed-circuit board interrupted, or printed circuit board defective.
    • Remedy: Check voltage supply to the pump and eliminate the cause. Check the line from the pump plug to the printed circuit board (left-hand LED should be lit if voltage is applied). Replace the printed circuit board if defective.
  • Pump Motor Runs Permanently (30 minutes - Duration of Monitoring Time):
    • Cause: Proximity switch (initiator) defective, cable connection of the proximity switch to the pump interrupted, or printed circuit board defective.
    • Remedy: Disconnect the main line to the monitored metering device. Unscrew and check the proximity switch by inserting a metallic pin into its borehole for 2 seconds. If the pump does not switch off, check cable connections. Replace the proximity switch and/or connector if necessary. Check cable connections to the pump. Replace the printed circuit board if defective.
