Centralized lubrication systems are design to provide exact metered
amounts of fresh lubrication, at the proper intervals, to the desired
locations on your machinery.
Single line resistance systems (SLR) are compact, reliable, low
pressure oil lubrication systems which consist of four basic elements.
1.) PUMPS - manual, air, or motor driven.
2.) METERING UNITS - orifices of various sizes designed to create flow
resistance to each bearing point.
3.) DISTRIBUTION NETWORK - hose & tubing plus various junctions and
connectors.
4.) MONITORING DEVICES - pressure gauge, low oil level switch, pressure
switch.
APPLICATION
CALCULATED OIL REQUIRED IN cc PER HOUR
BALL BEARING
.10 X bearing diameter x number of rows
PLAIN BEARING
.15 x bearing shaft diameter x bearing length
FLAT SLIDES
.04 x (slide length + length of travel) x slide width
CYLINDRICAL
.15 x (slide length + length of travel) x slide dia.
BALL SLIDES
.03 x slide length x number of rows
CAMS
.08 x surface area  
GEARS
.30 x gear pitch diameter x face width
CHAINS
.05 x length of chain x width
The calculations are for bearing
sizes in inches. Use this guide
only with equipment
manfacturer recommendations.
Calculated values should be
adjusted to suit environmental
conditions. Call or fax us with
your requirements.
METER UNIT
TYPE F
Inlet filter
Fixed orifice
Check valve
Each meter unit and control unit
has a flow rate and feed
direction marked on each fitting.
Do not attempt to adjust or
repair.
Meter Units and Control Units both create flow resistance.
The main difference is that the meter unit uses a check valve
to prevent oil drain back between lubricating cycles. Therefore,
Meter Units are used in one shot or cyclic type lubricating
systems.  Control Units are used in continuous type lubrication
systems.
