MFE2 gear pump unit for fluid grease with main line automatic pressure relief These units are designed for centralized lubrication systems used in conjunction with piston distributors (total-loss lubrication) and are equipped with the required relief and safety valves. The drive is provided by a three-phase motor. The pumps are located below the grease level, in contrast to oil units. Intermittent operation is required for the distributors’ sequence of operation: when the pump is running, the distributors are pressurized, when the pump is at rest, the main line is relieved of pressure and...

MFE5 gear pump unit for oil Gear pump unit mounted separate from oil reservoir Order No. Gear pump unit for flange-mounting on oil reservoir Please provide voltage and frequency when ordering. A special sealed pump must be used for horizontal flange-mounting of the unit in a position below the oil level. For gear pump unit model MFE5 complete with metal or plastic reservoir (3, 6 and 15 liters) see the pages 9 – 11.

MFE5 gear pump unit for oil Explanation of hydraulic function Both (ME5, MFE5) types have the same hydraulic function. Oil is sucked in at S and flows under pressure through the duct in the direction P. The oil pressure closes valve V and opens valve E3, at the same time closing valve E1 against spring tension. If air is entrained (due to low oil level in the reservoir), valve V remains open and diverts the air or, respectively, the air-oil mixture into the return duct (see bubble (o) marking in direction R1). Valve C allows oil under overpressure to flow out into the return duct (see cross...

Multi-voltage motors for pump units (assembly M..) Many export oriented companies have to deal with voltages/frequencies that deviate from those in Germany. To make it easier for them to buy the most common pump units for centralized lubrication systems, we have developed 3 multirange motors that cover a wide range of three-phase voltages and frequencies. Pump units with or without oil reservoirs are included, provided the hydraulic power data listed in the brochures are not exceeded (limit values). These pump units are designated as: M2, MF2, MFE2, M5, MF5, MFE5, FLM12-3, FLMF12-3, M202...
