VPK dosing devices

For sequential lubrication systems

The VPK is a segmented metering device. Its metering segments cover output and cycle volumes from 0.05 cm³ (T-segment = 2 outputs) to 0.6 cm³ (S-segment = 1 output). All segments (inlet, intermediate, and end) are held in place with tie rods. The supply lines are sealed using plates to close the passages between segments. A minimum of three intermediate segments is required.

Technical characteristics and advantages

  • Volumetric flow rate up to 500 cm3/min; 30.5 inches3/min
  • Versatility: continuous or intermittent operation of the system
  • Dosing segments with variable dosing volume
  • Internal combining of outputs
  • Optional visual or electrical monitoring
  • Safe sealing with channel closure plates

Application areas

  • Machines for metalworking
  • Vehicles
  • Manufacturing equipment in the automotive industry
  • Packaging machines
  • Printing industry
  • Construction and mining equipment
  • Agricultural equipment
