Key Features

  1. ISO Compliance:

    • Conforms to ISO 6301-1, ensuring adherence to industry standards for pneumatic lubrication.
  2. Modular Mounting Capability:

    • Suitable for modular mounting with other pneumatic components, simplifying installation and maintenance.
  3. Fog/Mist Type Lubrication:

    • Generates a fine mist for optimal lubrication distribution in compressed air systems.
  4. Precise Adjustment of Lubrication:

    • Provides fine control over lubrication, allowing users to set lubrication levels according to specific needs.
  5. Flow-Proportional Lubrication:

    • Lubrication is proportional to the air flow, ensuring consistent lubrication across varying flow rates.

Installation and Safety Precautions

  • Flow Direction: Confirm the correct flow direction before installation and connect piping accordingly.
  • Clean Pipelines: Flush pipelines to remove dirt, dust, rust, and other contaminants prior to installation.
  • Environment: Install the unit in a clean environment to prevent exposure to harmful substances.
  • Thread Connections:
    • For taper threads (R), use Teflon tape carefully to avoid tape entering the unit during tightening.
    • For straight threads (G), use a sealing washer to secure connections.
  • Polycarbonate Bowl Caution: Avoid exposure of the polycarbonate bowl to synthetic oils, thinners, solvents, trichloroethylene, kerosene, or aromatic hydrocarbons to prevent damage.
  • Oil Refilling: Oil can be refilled when the unit is pressurized, though it’s recommended to vent air completely before refilling.

Applications

The Uflow Air Lubricator is ideal for enhancing the performance and durability of pneumatic systems, especially in industries such as:

  • Manufacturing and Assembly Lines: Ensures consistent lubrication for tools and machinery.
  • Automotive Industry: Maintains reliable performance of pneumatic tools used in vehicle assembly and maintenance.
  • Processing Plants: Optimizes pneumatic equipment used in various processes, reducing wear and tear.

The Uflow Air Lubricator is a reliable and efficient choice for maintaining the proper lubrication in compressed air systems. Its flow-proportional mist lubrication, modular design, and precise adjustment make it an essential component for extending the lifespan and performance of pneumatic equipment across various industrial applications.
