Pulsarlube V Single-Point Automatic Lubricator

Pulsarlube V Single-Point Automatic Lubricator

The Pulsarlube V is a single-point automatic lubricator that dispenses grease consistently over a selected period of time using an electrochemical nitrogen gas system. It features an LCD display that makes settings easy to check and adjust.

Product Overview

The Pulsarlube V is a microprocessor-controlled electrochemical lubricator that utilises inert nitrogen gas to deliver grease gradually to a single lubrication point.

It features programmable dispensing periods, an LCD display, and a transparent reservoir for easy monitoring. Available in both disposable 125 ml and 250 ml models, its intrinsic-safety certifications and IP68 enclosure support usage in appropriately classified hazardous and demanding industrial environments.

Key Benefits

Consistent automatic grease delivery contributes to the reduction of reliance on manual lubrication, Pulsarlube V supports appropriate lubrication intervals and minimises routine maintenance visits to difficult or hazardous locations. The following are the key practical benefits.

  1. More Consistent Lubricant Delivery: The Pulsarlube V supplies grease progressively over the selected dispensing period. This supports more consistent lubrication than relying entirely on periodic manual greasing, where the quantity applied and interval between applications may vary.
  2. Reduces Under-Lubrication and Over-Lubrication: By matching the lubricator’s capacity and dispensing period to the requirements of the lubrication point, the system can help maintain a more appropriate lubricant supply while reducing the large, intermittent grease quantities sometimes associated with manual lubrication.
  3. Reduces Routine Manual Lubrication Work: Once correctly installed and programmed, the lubricator automatically supplies grease throughout its selected operating period. This can reduce the number of routine visits required solely for manual grease application.
  4. Supports Safer Maintenance Practices: Automatic lubrication can reduce how frequently personnel must approach lubrication points located near operating equipment or in areas that are difficult to access. The unit is also certified for use in specified hazardous locations, subject to the applicable site and area-classification requirements.
  5. Helps Protect Bearings from Contamination: The lubricator forms a closed grease-delivery arrangement at the lubrication point. This can reduce the frequency with which grease fittings are opened and exposed during routine manual lubrication, helping to limit opportunities for dirt, moisture and other contaminants to enter.
  6. Simple Monitoring and Adjustment: The LCD display communicates the selected dispensing period and operating status, while the transparent reservoir provides a direct visual indication of the remaining lubricant. The dispensing setting can also be reprogrammed using the unit’s control button.

Key Features

The Pulsarlube V combines programmable dispensing periods, microprocessor-controlled operation and straightforward visual monitoring with protection suitable for demanding and hazardous industrial environments. Here are the key features of this system. 

  • Microprocessor-Controlled Operation

    An integrated microprocessor manages the lubricator’s operating cycle to support accurate lubricant dispensing.

  • Nitrogen-Gas Generation System

    The unit generates inert nitrogen gas through an electrochemical reaction. This technology provides more stable performance across changes in ambient temperature than hydrogen-gas-type lubricators.

  • Selectable Dispensing Periods

    Users can select a dispensing period of 1, 2, 3, 6 or 12 months to suit the grease requirement of the individual lubrication point.

  • Large LCD Display

    The built-in LCD provides clear information about the selected operating period, purge function and lubrication-cycle status.

  • Easy Reprogramming

    The dispensing period can be changed using the MODE button, allowing the unit to be adjusted when the application’s lubrication requirements change.

  • Transparent Lubricant Reservoir

    The transparent housing allows maintenance personnel to inspect the movement of the piston and the approximate amount of lubricant remaining.

  • Purge Function

    A dedicated purge mode dispenses a larger quantity of grease over a short period. It is intended for specific setup or checking requirements and is not recommended as the normal operating mode for typical applications.

  • Intrinsically Safe Certifications

    Pulsarlube V carries ATEX, UL, IECEx, KCs, CE and MSHA certifications. This enables its use in applicable hazardous locations containing flammable liquids, vapours, gases or dust, provided the installation complies with the relevant certification and site requirements.

  • IP68 Ingress Protection

    The enclosure offers a high level of protection against dust and water ingress, supporting use in demanding industrial environments.

  • Direct or Short Remote Installation

    Direct mounting is recommended. Where direct installation is impractical, the unit may be remotely installed using the appropriate accessories and a prefilled 8 mm outside-diameter grease tube not exceeding 1 metre.

Typical Equipment and Lubrication Points

Developed for grease-fed single lubrication points, Pulsarlube V can be applied to suitable bearings on motors, pumps, blowers, fans, conveyors, and other industrial rotating equipment. Below are the typical lubrication point in different range of equipment. 

  • Electric Motors

    Typical points include drive-end and non-drive-end motor bearings where each bearing has an individual grease inlet and a controlled, relatively low grease requirement.

  • Pumps

    The lubricator can be applied to grease-lubricated pump bearing housings, provided the lubrication passage is clear and the required delivery pressure is within the unit’s operating capability.

  • Blowers and Industrial Fans

    Typical applications include grease-lubricated shaft bearings on blowers and fans used in process plants, ventilation systems and production facilities.

  • Conveyors and Material-Handling Equipment

    The unit may be used on suitable single bearing points associated with conveyor drives, pulleys or rollers where automatic grease delivery is required and installation conditions fall within the product’s limitations.

  • General Industrial Machinery

    Pulsarlube V may also be considered for accessible or difficult-to-reach grease points on suitable production and processing equipment, provided each lubricator serves only one lubrication point.
