2 Normal Operation
2.1 Once the SLD auto-luber unit is switched on, an electro-chemical reaction
cell is activated that creates inert nitrogen gas. This produces an internal
pressure of up to 345 kPa (50 psi) that expands a bladder that acts against
a piston to force the lubricant out of the dispensing cylinder at a controlled
rate according to the specific time period previously selected. This is an
automatic operation.
2.2 After initial activation, there is a delay before enough nitrogen gas is
generated to start moving the piston to dispense lubricant. The longer the
dispensing period selected the longer the delay before lubricant is dispensed.
See Figure 3. If immediate dispensing is desired, prestart the SLD auto-
luber unit 12 hours prior to installation by moving all DIP switches to the “On”
position. After this period of time, return all DIP switches to “Off” and reselect
