Perma Star Control Impulse

Similar to the perma STAR VARIO, the STAR CONTROL IMPULSE delivers precise amounts of lubricant and its operation is temperature independent. The unique feature of STAR CONTROL IMPULSE is its connection to the machine's control unit. Power (direct voltage) and control come from the machine. This feature makes the STAR CONTROL IMPULSE ideally suited to equipment where lubrication is to take place only when the machine is in operation and where a feedback signal to PLC is required. As soon as voltage is impressed, perma STAR CONTROL IMPULSE discharges the set discharge amount once. Before it will discharge again, voltage must be interrupted for at least 5 seconds and then impressed again.

Product Overview

Product Characteristics

Fully automatic, temperature independent and precise
Transparent plastic housing
Electromechanical drive (external power supply required)
Re-usable drive is environmentally friendly
Three different volumes available (LC-unit 60cc, 120cc, 250cc) - exchange on site possible
Impulse controlled lubrication possible
Operating temperature: -10° to 50° C / 14° to 122° F
Pressure build-up: max. 5 bar / 75 psi
Protected against dust and water (IP54), non-corrosive
Ex-version available upon request

Advantages

Improved safety and lower costs than manual lubrication
Controlled and permanent lubrication - small amounts in short intervals
Power supply via machine (no battery pack exchange required)
Works independent of temperature and vibration
LED signals operating conditions (operating, empty, malfunction)
Re-usable drive unit
Transparent housing permits visibility of remaining lubricant
Non-corrosive transparent plastic housing
Pressure build-up to 5 bar / 75 psi allows use of flexible tube extensions up to 9 ft
Discharge amounts can be selected according to individual lubrication point requirements and depending on machine operating time
Signals current operating conditions to PLC
Exchange manually - no tools required

Applications

perma STAR CONTROL is used for lubrication of roller and sliding bearings, chains, open gears, guides and seals. Machine downtimes can be reduced drastically when perma STAR CONTROL is used in applications that require lubrication to take place only when the machine is running. Connection to PLC is possible.

The main difference between the battery-operated STAR VARIO and STAR CONTROL is that the perma STAR CONTROL is directly connected to the machine's control unit. Power (direct voltage) and control come from the machine. perma STAR CONTROL IMPULSE is operated in impulse mode: as soon as voltage is impressed, perma STAR CONTROL IMPULSE discharges the set discharge amount once. Before it will discharge again, voltage must be interrupted for at least 5 seconds and then impressed again.
