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 pump providing 4 GPM minimum at 20 PSI. The 1/2 HP, 1725 RPM, TEFC motor is operated by 3 phase power at 230/460V 60Hz.
The 15 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 are (2) 1” female NPT return connections 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.
This system is plumbed for continuous operation with dual filtration systems. Dual 23 micron, 1000 beta filters near the outlet help maintain liquid quality. One filter can be serviced while maintaining continuous system operation using the duplicate filter.
Additional controls include:
- A stainless steel pressure gage, displaying 0-60 PSI.
- A bronze check valve to ensure fluid flows in only one direction.
- A cast iron bypass relief valve used to set system output pressure, adjustable from 7 to 35 PSI.
- A 9” centerline liquid level gage on the outside of the reservoir with a dial thermometer displaying temperatures from 0° to 250° F, allowing visual check of liquid level, condition, and temperature at a glance.
This custom built circulating oil system measures 24” by 15”. The overall height is approximately 33”.
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.
