Mounting Installations
High backpressure can cause a delay in dispensing (must be under 5 bar). If the product is installed at a 45° or 90° angle, please use an angle adapter with a diameter greater than or equal to 1/4″. For remote installation using an Ø8 O.D. tubing, keep the maximum distance at 1m (3ft) or less.
Ball & Roller Bearings
Note
Dispensing volumes (ml/day) are calculated assuming the lubricator is
operating at 1 atm (14.7psi), 20˚C. Output volume may vary with ambient
temperature changes, atmospheric pressure changes, consistency of lubricant,
or any resistance or backpressure existing at the lube point (bearing or
passage).
Warning
This product is a disposible unit. Please replace with a new unit once set
dispending period has completed.

Warning
The batteries are not user-replaceable.
Mounting Methods
The Lubri-Cup VG is designed for single point lubrication only. Direct mount is recommended. For applications not allowing any direct mounts, remotely mount the unit using appropriate accessories and keep the distance from the lube point as short as possible. For remote installation using a tube, use an Ø8 O.D. (5/16″) tubing pre-filled with the same or compatible grease as the grease contained in the unit. Keep the maximum distance at 1m (3ft) or less.
Warning
If possible, avoid using remote installation when the unit is set to 12
months due to the low pressure generated at the 12 month setting.
