NOTE:
•
The lubrication period is determined by
the color of the activator screw.
• Electrochemical lubricators are tempera-
ture and vibration dependent.
Refer to Table 1 to determine the correct acti-
vator screw and lubricator to use for your appli-
cation and operating temperature. The data
provided in this table is based on laboratory
tests and under laboratory conditions and
should be used as a general guideline only for
selecting the discharge period. The actual dis-
charge period is strongly influenced by various
factors including the type of lubricant, ambient
temperature, vibration and connection parts.
Table 1: EP-120 and EC-120 Lubricators*
*Initial delay = approximately 1 day. (Time required until first lubricant discharge takes place with-
out counter pressure.)
