The lubricators are maintenance unit components. They are used to regulate oil
release to the compressed air. Cylinder speeds >1 m/s, metal-metal sealing valves,
and compressed air tools are typical applications.

Assembly, Commissioning, Operation
O Let the product acclimatize for several hours before commissioning; otherwise,
water may condense in the housing.
Danger of injury if assembled under pressure or voltage!
Assembling when under pressure or voltage can lead to injuries and damage to
the product or system components.
O Make sure that the relevant system part is not under voltage or pressure
before you assemble the product.
O Protect the system against being switched on.
System is operating under pressure.
Incorrect installation could damage the maintenance unit/device and cause
serious injury.
O Before start-up, check that all connections, ports, and maintenance devices
have been correctly installed.
Sudden surge in pressure during start-up!
If no SSU filling unit is used, the system will suddenly be under pressure during
start-up! This could cause dangerous and sudden cylinder movements.
O When starting up the system, make sure that the cylinders are in their end
position. For cylinders not in the end position, make sure they do not present
any danger.
Noxious oil mist!
If oil is used in the compressed air system, noxious oil mist may develop.
O Only operate the lubricator in closed pneumatic systems.

Assembling the reservoir and protective guard
1. Slide the protective guard on the reservoir (a).
2. Place the seal (b) and the reservoir with the protective guard (c) onto the
lubricator housing.
3. Slide the locking ring (d) over the reservoir with the protective guard and tighten
firmly.
Filling the lubricator
W
Fill the reservoir with the specified oil only (see "Technical Data").
W
Regularly check the oil level and refill if the oil has reached the minimum level
indicated on the reservoir.
If the filling level is too high, oil can reach the system and damage it.
