Assembly and Installation

OIL
Security note: If the lubricator is started without opening the outlet or in case of
blocked grease lines within the installation, the pressure in the lubricator can build
up approx. 5 bar. At an overpressure the cartridge moves in the housing and opens
the pressure chamber. The pressure behind the piston releases. The lubricator
cannot be reused.
The correct functioning of the lubricator can only be assured if recommended
lubricants (see table on page 12) and original simalube accessories are used, and
if the installation, operating and maintenance instructions are closely followed. The
manufacturer cannot accept any responsibility for damages as a result of ignoring
the instructions mentioned above. Important: Before putting simalube into oper-
ation fill extensions and the lubrication lines with the appropriate simalube greases
(cartouches SL01 ...SL26) using a grease gun. Use only original accessories.
Temperature / Output rate
The output rate can be adjusted as required, depending on the ambient temperature
(see table).
Example: You want to set the dispensing time for a 15 ml simalube for 180 days.
Ambient temperature: 20 °C
Setting: 6
• Open the lubricator outlet by removing plug.
• Do not remove plug from oil filled units! Cut off
the protruding nipple with a knife; a small black point
becomes visible (opening now guaranteed).
• To start the simalube lubricator, set the gas generator to
the required dispensing time (stepless in months, 1–12) us-
ing a 3 mm Allen key. The lubricator is activated once the
dispensing time has been set. Take the required dispensing
quantity from the table on page 10.
• Note the starting date on the label using a waterproof pen.
• Lubricate the greasing lines with a grease pump. Lightly
grease the external thread on the simalube and screw it
onto the greasing point.
Maximum tightening torque on the (SW 20) hex: 8 Nm.
If necessary, use Simatec accessories. Carefully follow
safety instructions.
• Once the set dispensing time has expired, replace empty
lubricator with the same type. Before restarting, clear
grease lines and fill them with the appropriate grease.
• The gas generator is sufficient to empty the unit once,
irrespective of the dispensing time set.
Ambient temperature: 55 °C
