HOW DOES Lubricator King™ FAIL-SAFE LUBRICATORS WORK and HOW DO YOU ACTIVATE THE LUBRICATOR? |
Lubricator King™ is a chemically operated unit. As we all know from Science- Chemical Reactions in sealed conditions have fixed- and Prescribed Outcomes and never fails.
For all conditions Lubricator King™ performance is pre-determined and Fail-Proof. Lubricator King™ has NO SETTINGS, but 4 individual Colour Coded Units, Each Lubricator King™ Pre-designed to provide precision Tribology standard’ greasing to bearings or your application.
There are four operating periods (Lubricator King™); 1, 3, 6, and 12 months. After the service time has elapsed, the unit is replaced with a new unit.
Your Lubricator King™ Automatic Lubricator is activated in 1 simple step: by fastening the activator cap of your Lubricator King™ until you hear the seal break inside, then fasten completely - record change over date on the unit and your Visual Planned Maintenance Tracking Poster Lubricator King Distributions C.C. provide free to all our Customers.
[See Document Downloads Page: Installation Instructions Document.]
|
When the seal breaks when you activate your Lubricator King™ : The controlling element is released into Sealed chemicals which reacts to the controlling element, and then there is only 1 Possible Fail Safe Reaction = constant expansion over the designed period the Lubricator King™ is designed for, dispensing a perfect grease-film constantly to your bearing / seal / Equipment etc. regardless of vibration or tolerances.
|
Note: Operating Lubricator King™ units are to be removed only on the Scheduled Change-Over date and should not be removed within it’s operating period as this will take time again in building up the relevant pressure it was operating by prior removal during it’s operation.

TECHNICAL GUIDE - CHOOSING YOUR Lubricator King™ TYPE FOR PRECISION GREASING |
Your Bearing/Equipment Shaft Size: |
Lubricator King™ SA UNIT DESIGNED TO PROVIDE TRIBOLOGY PRECISION AUTOMATIC GREASING |
0 - 30 mm shaft size |
Type 12 Lubricator King™ (dispense constantly over 12 months) |
Colour code -GREY |
30 - 60 mm shaft size |
Type 06 Lubricator King™ (dispense constantly over 06 months) |
Colour code -RED |
60 - 100 mm shaft size |
Type 03 Lubricator King™ (dispense constantly over 03 months) |
Colour code - GREEN |
100 - 120 mm shaft size |
Type 01 Lubricator King™ (dispense constantly over 01 months) |
Colour code - YELLOW |
BIGGER than 120 mm shaft sizes
|
You can continue using Lubricator King™ Efficient- and Fail Proof Technology for shaft sizes Bigger than 120mm shaft size, by using a manifold extension set-up with a single feeding point.
The Tribology Formula to determine how many one month Lubricator King™ units you must couple on the manifold for that bearing is:
The Shaft size in mm / divided by 150 (midpoint of our fastest acting unit) = Number of one month Lubricator King™ units you will couple ontop of a manifold with a single feeding point to that Macro bearing.
Or you can refer to the Grams of Lubricant you’ll need for that application per day and see table below indicating Grams release per day of each Lubricator King™ and add the Lubricator King™'s you need together with a single feeding point for your bigger application. |
|
What conditions of your Application should you consider when Choosing your Lubricator King™ :
Example: you have bearing with shaft size 90mm, thus according to Mechanical guide above a TYPE 03 Lubricator King™ is prescribed. But the equipment has a lot of Vibration and is in Dusty Environment. THEN We recommend, as would your experiental knowledge, a faster acting Lubricator King™ delivering a bit more grease to that bearing - thus you would use a TYPE 01 Lubricator King™ to cater for the conditions around your bearing.
[See Download Documents Page: Lubricator King Distributions C.C. had a South African Tribology Engineer work out per Tribology Standards for- Plumber blocks, Electrical motors and Water Pumps the Exact amount of Lubricator King™ units you should use to comply with Tribology Standards for Interval greasing aspect generally.] |

The Lubricant grams delivery above for each Lubricator King™ Type Per day is for All Average year tempretures in South Africa. Temperature variations above or below 25'C over a short period of time will have little or NO affect on the overall life of a Lubricator King™ unit. For example, periods of exceptionally hot or cold days is incorporated into the design of Lubricator King™ to still discharge over a month, or 3 months, or 6 months, or 12 months (Ref: Your Lubricator King™ Type used).
For Constant - Extreme Specialised Temperature Applications in Furnace Plants and Freezing Processes- with a space Temperature averaging (over the operating life period of the Type GM unit) constant above 30’C and Higher or constantly under 10’C or into subzero: the Grease Grams delivery per day- will be higher for constant high temperature applications and lower for constant freezing temperatures. This is not a limitation for Specialised Clients who want’s to apply Lubricator King™ in Specialised Burning temperatures or subzero temperatures - as Lubricator King™ Outcome is Fixed and Prescribed and for such Specialised Extreme applications.
If you have such an Application You will be Also referring to the Table below, to correlate the Average Heat/Cold temperature of your application and see which Lubricator King™ (or number of Lubricator King™'s on a manifold) will provide the Precision Grams of Lubricant per Day that you need for your Extreme Specialised Applicaton and what will be the Change-Over Date for that Lubricator King™ in that Extreme Application.
