3. Configuració

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of the lubricator. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Preparació: Ensure the lubrication point is clean and free from old grease or contaminants.
2. Posició de muntatge: Select a mounting position that allows for easy access for inspection and replacement. The lubricator should be mounted vertically or at a slight angle, ensuring the discharge port is facing downwards.
3. Connexió: Connect the lubricator directly to the lubrication point or via a suitable extension hose. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leakage.
4. Activació: The lubricator is activated by rotating the top cap to the desired dispensing period (e.g., 1, 3, 6, 12 months). Refer to the markings on the cap for specific settings. Once activated, the gas cell will begin to dispense lubricant.
5. Comprovació inicial: After activation, observe the lubrication point to confirm that lubricant is being dispensed.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

The SKF LAGD 125/HQ2 is designed for continuous, automatic operation once activated. No further manual intervention is typically required until the lubricator is empty.

• Dispensing Period: The selected dispensing period on the top cap determines the rate at which the 125 ml of lubricant is discharged. Choose a period appropriate for the application's lubrication requirements.
• Seguiment: Periodically inspect the transparent reservoir to monitor the lubricant level. The lubricator is designed to empty completely over the set period.
• Influència de la temperatura: Ambient temperature can affect the dispensing rate. Higher temperatures may slightly increase the rate, while lower temperatures may decrease it. Consider this when selecting the dispensing period.

5. Manteniment

The SKF LAGD 125/HQ2 is a single-use, disposable unit. It is not designed for refilling.

• Substitució: When the lubricator is empty (indicated by the transparent reservoir), it should be replaced with a new unit.
• Eliminació: Dispose of the empty lubricator according to local environmental regulations for industrial waste. The gas cell contains inert gas and should be handled responsibly.
• Inspecció: Regularly inspect the lubrication point and surrounding area for any signs of leakage or insufficient lubrication.
