LUBRICATION: Single point automated option

Mississauga, ON – Beka-Lube Products, a leader in aftermarket automated lubrication systems, introduced a single point lubricator, BekaONE, this year.

The new BekaONE single point lubricator reliably and precisely supplies grease to any existing lube point. It makes sense for hard-to-access and hard-to-service lube points in almost any application including motors, drives, bearings, conveyors, compressors, and chains.

“It’s easy to forget to check the lubrication every day,” says Dave McDougall, Product Manager, Beka-Lube Products. “BEKAONE takes care of servicing hard-to-reach lubrication points on a regular basis, so you can forget.”

BekaONE will operate independently and automatically for up to two years. It’s easy to install and refill. Set-up for lube cycle and dose is right on the pump itself. The pump displays how many cycles are remaining. BekaONE’s compact size – only 76mm in diameter, holding 120 ml of lubricant – means it can fit into tight spaces. It also has class leading, 10 bar pressure. Each unit can be refilled up to six times manually with just a grease gun.

Manufactured in Germany, the BEKAONE is tough enough for the Canadian climate. The sealed electro-mechanical pump and lithium ion battery are designed to operate efficiently in temperatures between -20°C and +60°C with a suitable lubricant.

Compared to manual greasing, BekaONE automatic lubrication has several advantages:

• Saves time servicing hard-to-access and remote lube points
• Improves coverage as lubricant is applied while equipment is operating
• Improves safety and is more environmentally friendly because it eliminates leaks and spills
• Increases component life
• Decreases repair costs
