SKF Multilube central lubrication system
General system description
Safety instructions
Operation
Safemobe lubrication devices and systems are designed and manufactured for centralized
and automatic lubrication of vehicles and machines. No other use is allowed.
Pumps
The pumps in central lubrication systems are pneumatically or electrically (12 V or 24 V DC)
operated. When servicing the system, the operating power of the pump must be switched
off.
Piping, hoses and connectors
Opening of piping, hoses, and connectors is allowed only when unpressurized. Before open-
ing, make sure that you also switch off the operating power of the pump.
Springs
The lubricant reservoir contains a guide piston spring. Remember this when opening the
reservoir!
General information on centralized lubrication system
Accurate lubrication prevents damages and shutdowns caused by inadequate lubrication.
The service life of process equipment and machinery is extended and both energy consump-
tion and the used amount of lubricant are reduced. Thanks to automation, optimum lubrica-
tion is achieved and the burden of the environment is minimized. All this brings savings.
Automation increases work safety, as equipment and machinery does not have to be lubri-
cated manually during operation.
SKF Multilube-central lubrication system
SKF Multilube system is a single- or dual-line (Heavy- or Twinheavy) central lubrication
system, in which the lubricant is pumped through piping to the dosers. Dosers feed the pre-
set amount of lubricant to the lubrication points.
The system operation is controlled and monitored by a control unit. Control unit controls the
system according to preset starting interval and monitors system pressurization and the
amount of lubricant. If the pressure does not reach the preset value during the maximum
pressurization time or if the amount of lubricant drops to the low level limit, the control unit
will inform of a malfunction. The control unit has an interlocking feature.
