Setting the delivery rate on pump element R
1 Spindle
2 Locknut
S Spindle setting dimension
V Delivery volume per stroke
NOTE
Be sure to observe the formula for temperature-dependent calculation of the delivery rate using the example of a high-
temperature grease, in the section
4.3.2.
NOTE
The delivery rate of pump element R can be adjusted
only when the pump is at a standstill.
When delivered, the rate is set to full delivery, meaning
the setting dimension is
S
= 29 mm [1.14 in.].
Proceed as follows for setting:
1. Release the locknut (Fig. 24/2)
2. Set the delivery rate by turning the spindle (Fig. 24/1) to
the dimension specified on the chart in Figure 24.
= lower delivery rate
= higher delivery rate
3. Once the delivery rate is set, tighten the
locknut (Fig. 24/1) again.
