Automatic lubricator SYSTEM 24 LAGE Series

SKF Automatic lubricators LAGE 125 and LAGE 250

Application
The SKF SYSTEM 24 LAGE is a singlepoint automatic lubricator, which can be
used to supply grease to single
lubrication points that are usually
lubricated by means of a grease gun.
Lubrication points, which are designed
to be re-lubricated by means of a grease
gun, replenish the grease buffer at the
lubrication point.
LAGE lubricators can be set to help
ensure that the correct quantity of
lubricant is delivered over a set time
period. This allows a more accurate
control of the amount of lubricant
supplied compared to traditional manual
re-lubrication techniques.
LAGE is ideal for applications which are
difficult to reach with a grease gun, or
where a large number of greasing points
mean that manual greasing techniques
would be less effective.
Typical applications include, amongst
others;
Pumps
Fans and Blowers
Conveyors
Escalators
Cranes
Food Processing Machinery
Oil filled units are also available, the
typical applications for these include,
chains, elevator slides and escalator
guidance rails
Description
The SKF SYSTEM 24 LAGE is a single
point electro mechanical driven
automatic lubrication system. It consists
of a transparent canister filled with a
specified lubricant and a battery
powered drive unit. By setting the dial
on the lubricator the dispense rate can
be adjusted. The dispense rate can be
set to empty the unit in 1, 3, 6, 9 or 12
months. The lubricator is delivered with
a mounting flange to help protect the
lubricator against vibration and a special
key for dial setting and activation.

The SKF SYSTEM 24 LAGE series is

available in two versions, LAGE 125
filled with 122 ml (4.1 fl. oz US) SKF
lubricant and LAGE 250 filled with
250 ml (8.5 fl. oz US) SKF lubricant.
These versions only differ in the canister
size. For both systems refills can be
ordered when the first canister is empty.
These refill sets consist of a canister
filled with SKF lubricant and a battery
pack. As both versions have the same
drive unit, it is possible to use different
size refill sets in the lubricator
Oil filled LAGE units are also available;
these are supplied with a mounting
flange with integrated non-return valve,
which helps prevent oil from flowing out
of units in an uncontrolled manner.
For applications where there is
insufficient space, high ambient
temperature, excessive vibration or
hazardous environments, LAGE units
can be remotely mounted. In this
instance, a female tube connection
(LAPF F1/4), tubing (LAPT 1000 or LAPT
5000) and a male connector to the
application (LAPF M1/4) is required. For
oil filled lubricators, a non-return valve
(LAPV 1/4 or LAPV 1/8) at the lowest
point of the feed line is also required.
The maximum feed line for LAGE with
grease is up to 3 meters (10 ft),
dependent on ambient temperatures
and for oil filled LAGE it is up to 5
meters (16 ft). When using feed lines it
is important that these are pre-filled
with grease or oil. Pre-greasing of feed
lines can be done with a standard
grease gun (1077600) through the
combining of a grease nipple (LAPG
1/4), an extension (LAPE 35) and a
female tube connection (LAPF F1/4).
To easily determine the correct setting
for your LAGE application, SKF provides
the easy to use DialSet program. The
program is available in many languages
on CD-ROM, in English for PDA/PPC, as
well as online at www.mapro.skf.com,
and contains calculations for both the
125 and 250 versions of SKF SYSTEM 24
LAGE.
