5.8 Setting the Discharge Period
Thedischargeperiodcanbesetanytimeviathelubricatorandwithouthavingtointerrupttheoperation.Itdoes
notmatterifthelubricationsystemisswitchedonoroff,sincethesystemswitchesbacktoitsoriginaloperating
statusafterthechangeshavebeenmade.
Foraprecisesettingofthedischargeperiod,pleaserefertotheOperatingInstructionsoftheconnectedlubricator.
Additional Discharge
Withanadditionaldischarge,allopenlubricationpointscanbesuppliedwithanadditionalamountofthelubricant.
Eachopenoutletprovides1.0cm
3
ofthelubricant.
Foranadditionaldischarge,thelubricationsystemmustbeswitched onandyouhavetopressandholddown
bothbuttonsofthelubricatorsimultaneously(refertogure10).
Anadditionaldischargeiscarriedoutateachactivatedoutlet(ittakesapprox.30secondsbetweenoutlets).
Thismeansthatifalloutletsareopen,theprocessofanadditionaldischargetakesmaximum14minutes.
Anadditionaldischargeisonlypossibleattemperaturesabove 0 °C (32 °F).
Everyadditionaldischargereducestheremainingdischargeperiodsinceanincreasedamountofthelubricant
hasbeensupplied.Thismustbetakenintoaccountinyourlubricationandmaintenanceschedule.

The time between two additional discharges is at least 30 seconds. Each additional long push of both
buttons (gure 10) will be recorded by the system and leads to further additional discharges on all outlets.
The system records up to 5 additional discharges.
Calculation of the Remaining Discharge Period
Pleasenote,thatincaseofoneorseveraladditionaldischarges,theremainingdischargeperiodofthelubrication
systemmustberecalculated.Thisalsoappliesincaseofashut-offofthelubricationsystemduetoanextended
machinestandstill(e.g.weekendsorannualholidays).
Forinformationonthecalculationoftheremainingdischargeperiod,pleaserefertotheOperatingInstructionsof
theconnectedlubricator.
Youshouldalsonotetheresultofyourcalculationoftheremainingdischargeperiodinyourlubricationand
maintenanceschedule.
