The SKF System 24 TLSD Series lubricator is an electromechanical, single point, automatic lubricator that provides direct or remote lubrication. It is a standalone device, consisting of a lubricant reservoir and a battery powered unit that can be programmed to dispense lubricant in various monthly settings. The drive unit uses a simple rotary switch protected by a clear plastic cap, which enables the programming of the TLSD to dispense lubricant in intervals of choice. Each machine is connected via either a direct mount or a feed line, each terminating with a standard G1/4 thread. The lubricators are simple to fit, easy to use and very reliable. The programmable drive unit offers more options and greater flexibility. The transparent reservoir makes it quick to check the status at a glance and the light LED display clearly shows the operating status of the device.
The reservoir is available in two sizes (125 ml and 250 ml) and is filled with SKF-specified high performance oils or greases. Maximum operating pressure is 5 bar. The robust TLSD lubricator is especially suitable for use in applications with high levels of vibration or fluctuating operating temperatures. A special version is also available for operation in cold temperatures. The product offers an effective solution for the lubrication of bearings, shafts and spindles, helping to extend machine operating life and reduce maintenance costs across a wide range of applications rangng from pumps, fans and blowers to conveyors, escalators and cranes.
