Xport® Electrochemical Single Point Lubricators

Xport® Classic Lubricator

The Xport® Classic Lubricator is an automatic single point lubricator recommended for all applications with ambient temperatures of 0° to 40°C (32° to 104°F). Its reliable operating principle is based on an electrochemical reaction. The lubrication period is determined by color-coded activator screws. Depending on your application’s requirement, you may choose to discharge 120 cc (4.06 fl oz) in a period of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. The activator screw generates a maximum pressure of 4 bar (58 psi), which moves the piston forward and continuously injects small lubricant amounts into the lubrication point.

Typical Applications: Chains, gear racks, open gears, roller & sliding bearings, shaft seals, sliding guides, spindles

Typical Industries: Automotive, mining, steel

Xport® Futura Lubricator

The Xport® Futura Lubricator is the ideal automatic single point lubricator for areas that must be kept hygienically clean or for harsh operating conditions that may lead to corrosion of metal lubricators or electronic systems. Due to its resistance to corrosion, the Flex unit is especially suited for applications in the food industry. Its reliable operating principle is based on an electrochemical reaction. The lubrication period is determined by color-coded activator screws. Depending on your application’s requirement, you may choose to discharge 120 cc (4.06 fl oz) in a period of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. The activator screw generates a maximum pressure of 4 bar (58 psi), which moves the piston forward and continuously injects small lubricant amounts into the lubrication point.

Typical Applications: Blowers & fans, chains, conveyors, gear racks, open gears, roller & slider bearings, shaft seals, sliding guides, spindles

Typical Industries: Cement, chemical, food, mining, recycling

Classic and Futura activator selection

Both the Xport® Classic and Xport® Futura lubricators discharge lubricant based on an electrochemical reaction that is created after the activator screws have been placed in the units. Depending on your application’s requirement, you may choose to discharge 120cc in a period of 1, 3, 6 or 12 months (based on ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F)). The activator screw generates pressure that moves the piston forward and continuously injects small lubricant amounts into the lubrication point.

Choose the right color-coded activator screw (yellow, green, red or gray) for the desired discharge period, which varies with ambient temperature. See chart to help with selection.

Xport® Flex Lubricator

The Xport® Flex Lubricator is an automatic single point lubricator that can be used for all types of industries and challenging applications, including inside and outside in a wide range of temperatures. Excellent ingress protection ensures reliable lubrication even in extremely dusty and moist environments. Available in two convenient sizes – 60 and 125 cc (2.03 and 4.23 fl oz) – the Flex is especially suited for installation in tight and restricted areas. The discharge period is flexible and can be adjusted from 1 to 12 months.

How It Works
The Flex comes fully assembled and ready-to-use. Simply turn to the desired discharge period, and the system is activated. The electronically controlled chemical reaction will build up the pressure that is necessary to continually supply the lubrication point with fresh lubricant. If necessary, the discharge period can be adjusted even after activation. And, it can be switched off during longer non-operation periods.

Typical Applications: Electric motors, open gears, pumps, roller bearings, sliding bearings

Typical Industries: Food, mining, oil and gas, quarrying, refinery

Xport® Nova Lubricator

The Xport® Nova Lubricator is an automatic single point lubricator that can be used for all applications that are within a temperature range of -20° up to 60°C (-4° up to 140°F).

A discharge period of 1 to 12 months can be easily programmed by pushing the selection button on the Nova drive unit. A built-in temperature sensor periodically measures the ambient temperature, and the drive unit calculates the required gas generation based on this data. This ensures a continuous and controlled discharge. The Xport Nova consists of a reusable drive, a lubricant canister (LC) filled with 125 cc (4.23 fl oz) of grease or oil, and a protective cover.

Typical Applications: Chains, electric motors, gear racks, open gears, roller & slider bearings, shaft seals, sliding guides
