Multi-line lubrication systems for oil
Introduction
System description
SKF multi-line lubrication systems consist of the following SKF multi-line oil pumps are designed for demanding appli-
components: a pump unit, control and monitoring devices, cations in nearly all industries and for pressure requirements
tubing and fittings Multi-line pump units supply lubricant to up to 4 000 bar (58 000 psi)
lubrication points without extra metering dividers Thus, each
lubrication point has its own pumping element The system Advantages:
design is simple, accurate and most reliable
Multi-line pumps can be actuated mechanically, electrically or • Sturdy; durable pump series designed for 24/7 operation
hydraulically The easily exchangeable pumping elements are • Simple; continuous lubrication without electrical cycle
usually operated by eccentric cam Depending on drive speed, timers, in most cases
gearbox ratio and selected pump element size, a delivery • Versatile; select individual pump element characteristics

By selecting pumping elements with different piston diame- pumping element
ters and/or stroke settings, an individual lubrication volume

outlets ranges from 1 to 28 and pinpointed lubrication (PD series)
• Broad viscosity range due to special
designs and small piston clearance
• ATEX explosion-proof versions available
• Extra, downstream-located flow control valves or
progressive metering devices possible
