BMG has extended its range of NTN-SNR bearing products to include a new single point lubricator, where the grease is pressurised by a gas generated unit, to provide continuous, reliable, clean and precise lubrication for bearings.
The new NTN-SNR Ready Booster 125 lubricator ensures less friction, which means energy savings and extended service life of components and equipment. Other benefits include reduced risk of contamination and accidents, particularly in dangerous areas; shorter maintenance times; improved reliability of industrial equipment and lower operating costs.
“This automatic lubrication system, which eliminates the risk of excessive or inadequate lubrication, ensures the constant and regular lubrication of bearings, is ideal for use in humid and corrosive environments, as well as in applications that require stringent hygiene standards, including the food industry,” says Rouff Essop, general manager, bearings division, BMG – Bearing Man Group. “These automatic lubricators – which ensure exactly the correct lubrication, with the correct grease – are easily integrated into various applications, without the need to modify installations. The duration of distribution for 125 cm³ of grease, at a maximum pressure of 5 bars, can be adjusted from one to 12 months, via a rotary switch.”
The compact Ready Booster 125 lubricator is suitable for use in confined and restricted areas and is ready to use – no special assembly or tools are required. A flow limiter valve is integrated in the oil version. A transparent tank in high density polyamide enables maintenance teams to easily check the grease level.
These units, with an IP 68 Index Protection rating to guard against the ingress of dust and water, can operate in all positions and can also withstand corrosion and excessive vibration. The Ready Booster has CE ATEX certification for explosive environments(II 1G Ex ia IIC T6, II 1D Ex iaD 20 T85 °C, M1 Ex ia I, DEKRA 13 ATEX OO78 X).
Various greases are available for different applications. For example, a general purpose grease is suitable for industrial use; heavy duty grease is recommended for high load applications in humid environments and high temperature grease is designed for long term lubrication at high temperatures, up to peaks of 175°. Synthetic oil is available for high temperature chains and a multi purpose grease, which complies with food and pharmaceutical standards, is used for bottling machines, dairy equipment and in food manufacturing.
BMG also supplies a full range of accessories to enhance performance of these automatic lubricators. Components include re-inforced bases, protection caps, brushes (for chain oil applications), various sizes of extensions, elbows, adapters, hoses and connectors, as well as attachment clips.
Typical applications for these corrosion resistant lubricators are for bearings and plummer blocks, chains, electric motors, fans, pumps and conveyors in diverse applications in mining, construction and agricultural equipment, materials handling, electro-mechanical engineering, manufacturing, paper plants and steel works.
