Introduction

A 20L pneumatic grease pump is a crucial tool in industrial and mechanical applications, providing a reliable means for dispersing lubricants precisely where needed. This article delineates the working mechanism, components, advantages, and solutions provided by JIANHE Company.

Working Principle of a 20L Pneumatic Grease Pump

Pneumatic grease pumps operate by using compressed air to drive the internal pump mechanism, pushing grease from the reservoir to the application point.

In a typical cycle, air pressure is applied to a piston within a dual-chamber cylinder, moving it downward. This action forces the grease through a one-way valve, preventing backflow, and feeds it into a delivery line connected to a nozzle for application.

Key Components and Their Functions

  • Air Motor: Uses compressed air to drive the pump mechanism.
  • Piston Pump: Converts reciprocating motion into pressure to move grease.
  • Grease Reservoir: Holds up to 20 liters of grease.
  • Pressure Gauge: Monitors system pressure to ensure efficient operation.
  • Delivery Hose: Transports grease from the pump to the application point.
  • Nozzle or Dispenser: Precisely applies grease where needed.

Performance Parameters

Key performance indicators for a pneumatic grease pump include:

  • Operating Pressure: Typically ranges from 5 to 8 bar (72.5 to 116 psi).
  • Flow Rate: Can deliver grease at rates up to 0.85 L/min under optimal conditions.
  • Maximum Output Pressure: Can achieve pressures up to 400 bar (5800 psi).
  • Material Compatibility: Compatible with standard NLGI 2 and 3 greases.

Advantages of Using Pneumatic Grease Pumps

  • Efficiency: Provides continuous and efficient application of grease with minimal manual intervention.
  • Precision: Allows for precise control of grease application, reducing waste and ensuring proper lubrication.
  • Durability: Built with robust materials to withstand harsh industrial environments.
  • Safety: Minimizes exposure to high-pressure grease, enhancing operator safety.
