Electro-Luber ™ - Nitrogen Gas Automatic Electronic Lubricator.
Continuous lubrication grease protection for most fittings - 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. Complete our Quote Request Page if you would like a quote on any Electro-Lube multi or single point lubricator system.
Two methods for dispensing the lube / grease --» Reusable motor driven units (see page 3b at the bottom) and the electro-chemical cell that generates inert nitrogen gas. View our Electro-Lube brochure in Acrobat pdf format.
The Electrolube Nitrogen Gas Lubricators are available in Mini (125cc/4oz), Budget (250cc/8oz), and Jumbo (475cc/16oz) sizes. View / print installation instructions for gas Electrolubers in Acrobat PDF 705k file format.
Units are pre-filled with the lube / grease you specify.
You select settings to dispense grease / lube as quickly as 14-days or as long as a year.
Controlled gas pressure on piston forces lube / grease out into fittings.
An indicator light flashes to confirm that the unit is operating.
Fresh, clean lubricant / lube effectively creates a sealed bearing to keep contaminants out.
State-of-the-art construction with a waterproof cover.
Translucent reservoir lets you see that lubricant has been dispensed.
Units can be mounted using a plastic tie in any orientation. Use up to three feet of 1/4" I.D. tubing for remote mounting.
Adapters are available to fit any threaded opening.
A closed switch, or switch combination, will activate an electro-chemical reactor cell. The cell serves to convert electrical energy into nitrogen gas. The gas, which is completely inert, is trapped in a hermetically-sealed chamber under the cell. As more gas is produced, internal pressure builds up and triggers a piston. The piston then forces lubricant out of the cylinder and into the lube point / grease fittings.
The strength of the electrical current determines the amount of nitrogen gas that is produced. The gas, in turn, controls the rate of lubricant flow and the length of time the Electro-Luber ™ will operate. View a diagram of how it works!

Roller & Ball Bearings
Bearings with grease fittings on the labyrinth seal can be permanently equipped with an Electro-Luber ™dispenser. This will provide a tight seal around the runner and will prevent dust and water from entering the bearing.
