Description
Oil-Rite manufactures Lubrication Systems specifically to customer requirements. All systems are engineered, designed, manufactured and fully tested at Oil-Rite. This is an example of a custom built Circulating Oil System.
This Circulating Oil System is equipped with a cast iron supply pump providing 1.8 GPM at 35 PSI. An additional scavenge pump helps ensure fluid reaches the tank. The dual 1/3 HP, 1725 RPM, TEFC motors are operated by 115V/60Hz.
The 10 gallon capacity reservoir is constructed of welded steel. A top filler cap makes filling the reservoir quick and simple. The filler cap is equipped with an air filter and liquid strainer to help maintain liquid quality. There is a 1/2” female NPT return connection and (2) 1/2” female NPT drains. A baffle in the tank separates sediment and reduces turbulence. A 100 mesh aluminum and stainless steel suction filter within the reservoir filters larger debris. A 20 micron filter is located near the system outlet to help maintain liquid quality. It features a spin-on element for easy replacement.
Heaters can maintain a certain liquid temperature and assist in cold weather start-ups. This Circulating Oil System features a 2250 watt screw plug immersion type heater. The heater is mounted on the side of the reservoir and housed in a Nema 4 enclosure. It has an integral thermostat adjustable from 60° to 250° F.
Additional controls include:
- A bypass relief valve used to set system output pressure, adjustable from 7 to 35 PSI. An add-on bypass valve spring allows adjustment up to 100 PSI (shipped separately).
- A stainless steel pressure gage, displaying 0-160 PSI.
- A bronze check valve located at the system outlet ensures fluid flows in only one direction.
- A dial thermometer located near the system outlet, displaying 0° to 250° F.
- A 6” centerline liquid level gage with a dial thermometer on the outside of the reservoir allows visual check of liquid level, condition, and temperature at a glance. It displays temperatures from 0° to 250° F.
This custom built circulating oil system measures 24” by 18”. The overall height is approximately 31”. The system can be secured using (4) mounting holes located on the base of the unit.
All Circulating Oil Systems are quoted specifically to customer requirements. Pricing can be determined only after the Circulating Oil System Request Form (found on this page) is completed. Contact the bearing manufacturer for information on the flow rate and fluid required.
Delivery is dependent upon supplier availability, lead times range from 4 to 10 weeks.
