VR metering devices with pre-lubrication cycle

For single-line lubrication systems

The VR series of metering units offers 1–12 channels of pre-lubrication for single-line oil and grease lubrication systems up to and including NLGI grade 2. These metering units feature an innovative, compact, and robust design utilizing SKF quick-release coupling systems.

Technical characteristics and advantages

  • Innovative, highly compact design
  • Optional metering devices for 1–12 channels according to the number of lubrication points
  • Measuring nipples with indicator pin for visual inspection of each lubrication point
  • Choice of optional push-in or threaded fittings for supply and main line connections
  • Easy dosage adjustment by replacing the metering nipples
  • Black anodized surface for optimal corrosion protection
  • Corrosion resistance category C3 and C5 according to DIN EN ISO 12944 and Germanischer Lloyd certified
  • High operational reliability when using thick grease at low operating temperatures

Application areas

  • Offshore and marine wind energy
  • Construction equipment
  • Metallurgy
  • Heavy industry
  • General mechanical engineering
