Lubricator (007330-00000)
Warning: DO NOT place plastic bowl unit in service without metal bowl guard installed.
Plastic bowl units are sold only with metal bowl guards. To minimize the danger of ying fragments
in the event of plastic bowl failure, the metal bowl guards should not be removed. If the unit is
in service without the metal bowl guard installed, manufacturer’s warranties are void, and the
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for any resulting loss.
If unit has been in service and does not have a metal bowl guard, order one and install before
placing back in service.
CAUTION: Certain compressor oils, chemicals, household cleaners, solvents, paints and fumes will attack
plastic bowls and can cause bowl failure. Do not use near these materials. When bowl becomes dirty replace
bowl or wipe only with a clean, dry cloth. Reinstall metal bowl guard or buy and install a metal bowl guard.
Immediately replace any crazed, cracked, damaged or deteriorated plastic bowl with a metal bowl or a new
plastic bowl and a metal bowl guard.
WE CANNOT POSSIBLY LIST ALL HARMFUL SUBSTANCES. CHECK WITH A MOBAY CHEMICAL OR GEN-
ERAL ELECTRIC
OFFICE FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON POLYCARBONATE PLASTIC.
Except as otherwise specied by the manufacturer, this product is specically designed for
compressed air service, and used with any other uid (liquid or gas) is a misapplication. For
example, use with or injection of certain hazardous liquids or gases in the system (such as alcohol
or liquid petroleum gas) could be harmful to the unit or result in a combustible condition or
hazardous external leakage. Manufacturers warranties are void in the event of misapplication, and
manufacturer assumes no responsibility for any resulting loss. Before using with uids other than
air, or for non-industrial applications, or for life support systems consult manufacturer for
written approval.
INSTALLATION
1. Refer to warning above.
2. Install as close as possible to the equipment requiring lubrication.
3. Install the unit with the air owing through the body in the direction indicated by the
arrow.
4. Install the same pipe-size unit as the pipeline in use. Avoid using ttings, couplings, etc.,
that restrict the airow or bafe the oil out of the air at the lubricator outlet.
5. The lubricator may be lled under pressure by slowly removing the ll plug and pouring oil
into the bowl through the ll tube. The tank may be taken off after the ll plug is removed. Do
not replace the ll plug until the tank is secured in place. NOTE: As the ll plug is removed,
the air pressure in the tank will be released.
6. Use only clean non-detergent oil. SAE 10 or lighter is usually best.
7. The rate of oil delivery can be controlled counterclockwise for more and clockwise for less
delivery. This lubricator delivers all of the oil downstream that passes through the sight dome.
The oil delivery rate will change automatically to deliver more oil during higher air ows and
less oil for air ows lower than that at which the original setting was made.
8. Maximum pressure and temperature ratings for metal tanks are 200 psig (14 bar) and 175F (79C)
