SLC dosing devices

For single-line lubrication systems

The Lincoln SLC metering unit is designed for use in single-line, high-pressure lubrication systems and features a modular design. Furthermore, the delivery volume can be adjusted using metering screws to ensure the required amount of lubricant is delivered to each lubrication point. Equipped with a spring-return control piston, the metering unit offers high pumpability and is compatible with greases up to and including NLGI grade 2. The SLC offers a simple configuration to meet specific application needs, including various delivery volumes, mounting options, and adjustments.

With the most compact design in its class, the SLC is suitable for use in a variety of applications such as renewable energy, construction, mining and heavy industry.
