MPB pump equipped with a pneumatic motor with a solenoid valve

For single-, dual-line and sequential lubrication systems

The MPB pump unit is specifically designed for automatic lubrication systems. Unlike conventional pneumatic drum pumps with a mechanical valve, it features a solenoid valve. This reduces the number of mechanical components in the pneumatic motor and eliminates the need for lubrication. The pump can be used with lubricant reservoirs of 18, 50, and 180 kg. (40, 120 and 400 pounds). With the appropriate adapter, the MPB pump unit can also be used in large capacity tanks.

Technical characteristics and advantages

  • Pneumatic drive, does not require lubrication
  • Fewer mechanical components contribute to a longer service life of the air motor
  • Efficient operation over a wide temperature range
  • Protection class IP 65

Application areas

  • Pulp and paper industry
  • Metallurgy
  • Heavy industry
