Selection Of Dispense Rate - SKF LAGD 60 Instrucciones De Uso

7. Use only supply lines with an internal diameter of 6 mm.
8. Protect the unit against impact or vibration. Use the clamp LAPC 50, shield the unit,
or install the unit remotely. If the gas cell or the top of the unit is accidentally
damaged, the electrolyte can leak. Refer to the safety data sheet for more information.
9. Protect the unit against heat and sudden temperature changes.
Note:
· The lubricator can be temporarily de-activated. Set the lubricator time set dial to 0.
· The unit can be installed in any position. The unit is waterproof (IP 68) and can be
installed under water.
· Oil filled lubricators have non-return valve plugs as standard. Do not remove it.
· Empty S24 units are for oil only and must be used with a non-return valve.

3. Selection of dispense rate

SKF recommends using one of the following methods to select the dispense rate.
3.1 Experience based approach
If the previous selection rate is satisfactory apply the same to the new lubricator.
3.2 Grease gun equivalence
Set the lubricator time to make sure the bearing receives the same amount of lubricant as
previously supplied by a grease gun.
Example:
· Bearing "X" receives 10 strokes from SKF hand operated grease gun (SKF 1077600)
per month.
· One full stroke = 2,0 cm³.
LAGD 60
· The content of the lubricator LAGD 60 is 60 ml = 60 cm³.
· Therefore 60 cm³ divided by 2,0 cm³ = 30 strokes.
· 10 strokes per month equals 30 divided by 10 = 3 months.
Set the lubricator time setting on 3 months.
LAGD 125
· The content of the lubricator LAGD 125 is 125 ml = 125 cm³.
· Therefore 125 cm³ divided by 2,0 cm³ = 62 strokes.
· 10 strokes per month equals 62 divided by 10 = 6,2 months.
Set the lubricator time setting on 6 months.
