3.5 Course of the lubricant in the SSVD
metering device
The SSVD 6 metering device is used as an
example to show the piston movements and
the lubricant supply to the individual outlets.
Phase 1
The lubricant P1 supplied by the pump flows
through the inlet E into the metering device.
By doing so metering piston B1 is moved
into its left end position. As a consequence
the corresponding lubricant volume P2 is
supplied to outlet 6.
P1 =
Lubricant supplied by the lubrica-
tion pump
P2 =
Lubricant displaced by the piston of
the metering device
P3 =
Lubricant not being moved
