Time and impulse mode combined in a single system

The Xport™ Star Control automatic single point lubricator is ideal for applications that require precise lubricant metering, and it is a preferred system for electric motors with very specific re-lubrication amounts. The Star Control is supplied with external power via cable, and its operating status can be transmitted to a PLC via this connection. This system offers two operating modes – time and impulse – for more flexibility. In time mode, lubricant dispensing is dependent on operating hours. In impulse mode, a precisely defined quantity is dispensed as soon as voltage is applied. The desired mode can be selected via the LCD.

The Star Control consists of an electromechanical drive with LCD and a lubricant cartridge (LC) with lubricant volume of 60, 120 or 250 cc (2.03, 4.06 or 8.45 fl oz). The system discharges exact amounts independent of temperature and counter pressure. It is protected against dust and water jets when the individual parts are assembled correctly.
