Brochure details automatic lubrication systems
Updated brochure gives details of an automatic lubrication system, and focuses on its major benefits and also includes details of two recent additions to the Safematic range.
Laser aligns and measures machinery
Brochure details a laser alignment and measurment system and describes how it minimizes the risks involved when aligning equipment and taking measurements in extreme environments.
It combines the previously separate hydraulic unit and control unit into one integrated component that can be used to control and monitor either one or two separate lubrication channels or pumping units.
The system provides control either via a John Crane Safematic multi-channel control unit, the customer's own control system, or through remote monitoring with mobile phone SMS messages.
The LG-ind doser operation indicator provides greater control of a lubrication system by making it possible to monitor the operation of each individual doser.
This is done without the need to visit the doser site to check operation, via a sensor which recognises the movement of the doser piston.
If the operation of a doser is not detected during a lubrication cycle, an alarm is sent to the control unit or the customer's control system.
The indicator need not be installed in each doser, and can be fitted to critical sites only.
These two state-of-the-art products complement the overall Safegrease 2 centralised lubrication system of which they form a part.
Although primarily designed to meet the specialised demands of the pulp and paper industry the Safegrease 2 system offer unparalleled reliability and versatility which extend its fields of application into many other sectors.
It can be used to lubricate anything from a single machine to an entire process, and is supported by the wealth of specialist lubrication expertise which John Crane Safematic has at its disposal.
