It is estimated that 50% of all bearing failures are due to lubrication issues!
Yet, 85% of all lube points are manually lubricated.
Single Point Lubricators are best practice reliability tools designed as alternatives to manual lubrication. These automatic units provide a constant flow of lubricant in small volumes to achieve lubrication at point of friction, thus protecting the equipment while reducing or eliminating the need for manual lube routes and freeing up time for other work to be done.
Single Point Lubricators ensure safer lubrication practices by eliminating the potential for an accident by over 95% in hazardous locations such as:
- Confined spaces
- Ceiling and rooftop applications, and
- Conveyor belt applications
Our newest single point lubricator – the Xport® Ultra – is a fully automatic lubrication system with precise discharge, independent of temperature and counter pressure. Extremely versatile, it is suited to a wide range of applications that demand high lubrication rates and where long remote grease lines are necessary to endure safe access.
The Ultra Lubricator has options of weekly and monthly settings, is available with two cartridge sizes of 500 and 1,000cc, and offers pressure buildup to 725 psi or 50 bar.
It also comes with Bluetooth functionality for simplified operation and real-time feedback. This connection allows operators to configure, control, and maintain the unit remotely for a further increase of workplace efficiency and safety.
Typical applications for LE’s Xport Ultra Lubricator include drag conveyors, shaker screens, rotary kilns, and belt conveyors. It is recommended for use in a wide range of industries including:
- Environmental technology,
- Food and beverage,
- Oil and gas,
- Paper, and
- Pharmaceutical
