Centralized lubrication systems significantly reduce the maintenance costs of the equipment on which they are installed, lowering downtime for maintenance operations and increasing the life of lubricated components. These systems also enable to reach all the points that require lubrication, including those that are not accessible to operators. If is active, the pump conveys the lubricant into the main pipe of the pumping element, to supply the dispenser, which has to divide and dose the amount of lubricant among the points that have to be lubricated because subject to wear. The secondary pipes distribute the lubricant to the fittings the replace the lubricators in the points subject to wear. The diagram in Figure shows the operating cycle of a centralized lubrication system.
