SAL FUTURA

 

 

SAL Futura is the perfect single-point lubrication system for every industry.  It is useful for equipment in hygienically clean environments like the food industry.  SAL Futura is also ideal for use in corrosion causing production areas.

 

Function

By tightening the activating screw, the gas generator drops into the electrolyte flued where it starts an electrochemical reaction that builds up pressure (up to 4 bar / 58 psi) and causes the piston to move forward.  The lubricant is continuously injected into the lubrication point.  When the lubricant cartridge is empty, the piston becomes clearly visible in the discharge indicator cap, showing that the lubricant has been fully discharged.  The lubrication period is determined by different colour activator screws (1, 3, 6 or 12 months).

Characteristics

  • Single point lubrication
  • Transparent housing
  • Electrochemical drive
  • Non-corrosive and recyclable
  • Function control via transparent housing
  • Fully automatic, reliable, no maintenance
  • Works in any position, even under water
  • Ambient temperature 0 to +40°C/+32 to 104°F
  • Pressure build up max 4 bar/58 psi
  • Ex-proof certified
  • Electrolyte liquid environmentally friendly citric acid
  • Lubricant volume 100cc
  • 4 differently coloured activating screws (black sealing ring) for 4 discharge periods: yellow = 1 month, green = 3 months, red = 6 months, grey = 12 months.

Applications

  • Roller- and sliding bearings
  • Chains
  • Open gears
  • Guideways
  • Ideal for use in areas that must be kept hygienically clean and in environments which are highly corrosive.

 

Advantages

  • Improve safety and lower costs than manual lubrication
  • Controlled and consistent lubrication
  • Constant supply of fresh lubricant to bearing seals under high contamination conditions
  • No external power supply necessary
  • Reliable supply of lubricant
  • Lubricant quality in lubrication point is kept at a high level
  • Visible control of remaining lubricant via transparent housing
  • Can be mounted u to 1 m away from the lubrication point with a flexible tube.
  • Simple exchange by hand – no tools necessary
  • Can be used in Ex proof areas
