When using pneumatic lubricators, it is essential to ensure uniform distribution of lubricating oil. Correct lubricating oil quantity adjustment is essential. Make sure that the oil quantity regulating valve of the pneumatic lubricator is set in the appropriate position to avoid over- or under-supply of oil. Check and maintain the lubricator regularly to ensure that there is enough lubricating oil in the oil cup, clean the lubricator to prevent oil line blockage, and keep the oil injection hole unobstructed. Use lubricating oil that meets the requirements of the pneumatic system and equipment, ensure that the oil has good atomization characteristics, and avoid using lubricating oil with too high or too low viscosity to ensure uniform injection and distribution.
Maintaining a stable airflow is also critical. Ensure that the flow and pressure of the compressed air are stable, because airflow fluctuations will affect the atomization effect and uniform distribution of the lubricating oil. Install the pneumatic lubricator close to the air-using equipment to reduce the deposition and loss of lubricating oil in the pipeline. Make sure that the lubricator is installed in the appropriate position of the pneumatic system, usually after the air handling unit (air filter and pressure regulator). Choose a pneumatic lubricator with high-quality atomization function so that the lubricant can be fully atomized and evenly mixed into the airflow, ensuring that the atomizing nozzle and the spray hole are clean and unblocked.
Regularly check the lubrication of pneumatic tools and equipment by observing the operation of the equipment and listening to the sound, ensuring that each component is well lubricated and judging whether the lubrication is uniform. In a complex pneumatic system, multiple lubrication points can be designed to ensure that each part can be fully lubricated, and use a suitable distributor or diverter to ensure that the lubricant can be evenly distributed to each part that needs lubrication.
