Key Performance Features

 

Positive Volumetric Displacement: Internal precision pistons deliver set lubricant output per cycle, unaffected by backpressure differences between individual lubrication points.

 

Flow Bridging & Modular Outlets: Individual outlets can be combined internally or fitted with varied piston sizes to deliver different fluid volumes across specific machine zones.

 

Sequence Interlock & Fault Detection: Piston movement is mechanically linked. If one downstream feed line or bearing port blocks, the entire progressive block halts, allowing immediate electronic detection.

 

Centralized Multi-Point Servicing: Replaces manual grease fittings across up to 300 points with a single, automated pump station.

 

Fluid Versatility: Operates across fluid oils and greases up to NLGI Grade 2 under high-pressure conditions.

 

Lubrication Point & Distribution Layout

 

Primary-to-Secondary Architecture: A central primary divider feeds secondary dividers placed near bearing clusters.

 

Zone-Specific Volume Allocation: Output volume is tailored to each bearing's needs by adjusting piston stroke sizes or using internal bridging pins.

 

Dedicated Individual Feed Lines: Each lubrication point connects directly to its assigned outlet, maintaining system pressure and preventing fluid crossover.

FAQ

 

Q: How does a progressive system differ from a single-line resistance system?

A: Single-line systems distribute fluid based on line resistance, favoring looser bearings. Progressive systems use mechanically interlocked pistons to force exact, sequential delivery to every port regardless of pressure variations.

Q: Can I simply plug an unused outlet port on a progressive divider block?

A: No. External plugging locks the internal piston sequence and halts the entire block. Unused outlets must be combined internally using specialized bridging pins or bypass elements.

Q: How do operators identify a blocked line during field troubleshooting?

A: Disconnect downstream feed lines one by one while pressurized. Once the clogged line is loosened, backpressure drops and the divider resumes cycling, pinpointing the blocked bearing port.

Q: Are your progressive divider blocks drop-in replacements for standard international brands?

A: Yes. Mounting dimensions, thread standards (BSP, NPT, Metric), and stroke displacements match standard international modular formats for field replacement.

Q: What is the maximum recommended line distance from pump to divider?

A: Distance depends on viscosity and temperature. For NLGI Grade 2 grease under ambient conditions, main supply lines are typically kept within 15 to 30 meters to prevent excessive pressure drops.

Q: Can system point capacity be expanded after initial installation?

A: Yes. You can connect secondary progressive dividers to open primary outlets or replace divider blocks with higher port counts, provided system pressure stays within pump limits.

Q: How are system components protected against contamination during ocean shipping?

A: All fluid ports are fitted with sealed protective plugs, wrapped in vapor-corrosion-inhibitor (VCI) film, and packed in export-grade wooden cases to prevent moisture and particulate ingress.

Q: What technical documentation accompanies custom OEM export orders?

A: Shipments include piping schematics, wiring diagrams, pump performance test logs, component maintenance manuals, and itemized spare parts lists.
