LUG series an automatic lubrication system
The LUG (Lubrication Unit Grease) series consists of 10 successive lubrication units with 1 to 5 pumps and is suitable for 1 to 40 lubrication points. With this fully automatic lubrication system you increase productivity because there is less risk of components running dry, resulting in expensive downtime and repair.
In addition to all the accessories needed to set up a complete lubrication plan (tubes, nipples, connectors, valves, etc.), we also supply spur and helical PU pinions for complete lubrication of rack and pinion drive systems. With this product you get a total solution.
ATEX applications of the automatic lubrication system
The lubrication unit is certified by ISTI and TÜV according to class Ex-tc-IIIB-IP5x. This makes this lubrication unit extremely suitable for use in, for example, the following explosive environments:
- Petrochemical industry
- Paint industry
- Paper industry
- Food industry (due to powdered ingredients)
- Woodworking industry (due to wood dust or sawdust)
Of course, the benefits which we mentioned in our earlier article also remain.
