BMG has extended its range of NTN-SNR bearing products to include a new single point lubricator, where the grease is pressurised by a gas generated unit to provide continuous, reliable, clean and precise lubrication for bearings. The new Ready Booster 125 lubricator reduces friction, resulting in energy savings and extended service life of components and equipment. Other benefits include reduced risk of contamination and accidents, particularly in dangerous areas; shorter maintenance times; improved reliability of industrial equipment; and lower operating costs.
The automatic lubrication system ensures the constant and regular lubrication of bearings. It is ideal for use in humid and corrosive environments, as well as in applications that require stringent hygiene standards such as the food industry. It is easily integrated into various applications, without the need to modify installations. The compact design makes it suitable for use in confined and restricted areas and no special assembly or tools are required. A flow limiter valve is integrated into the oil version. A transparent tank in high density polyamide enables maintenance teams to check the grease level easily. It has an IP68 protection rating to guard against the ingress of dust and water, can operate in all positions and can also withstand corrosion and excessive vibration. Various greases are available for different applications.
Typical applications for these corrosion resistant lubricators are for bearings and plummer blocks; chains; electric motors; fans; pumps; and conveyors in diverse applications in mining, construction and agricultural equipment, materials handling, electromechanical engineering, manufacturing, paper plants and steelworks.
