Overview
The open gear of rotary kilns, rod mills, mixers, and chains for pan pelletizers, for example, are lubricated by spraying grease or oil with air at appropriate amount and frequency.
Configuration
This system comprises a pump, control panel, distributing valve, air control equipment, and spray nozzles.
System Operation
The basic operation of this system involves spraying lubricant fed via the pump and distributing valve by air. To prevent the nozzle surface from clogging with lubricant after finishing spraying, only air is sprayed. (This is called “after-blow.”)
