SureFire II Lubricator
Single Phase - Quick Start Manual
PDI Operation
The SureFire II PDI Lubricator has a motor-driven pump that
pulls lubricant in from the reservoir and delivers pressurised
lubricant to the distribution network through the outlet(s) in
the top plate. Pressurising the distribution network forces all of
the positive displacement injectors (PDIs) in the system to fire,
discharging the lubricant that was stored in each of their
discharge chambers during the last pump cycle.
The pressure in the main line continues to rise activating the
pressure switch until relief pressure is reached, at which stage,
the relief valve opens and discharges the pressurised lubricant
back into the reservoir. The pressure switch can be used to stop
the motor, and momentary pressure in the main line becomes
greater than the pressure at the outlet side of the gear pump.
This pressure differential actuates a quick dump valve which
relieves the main line pressure back into the reservoir.

SLR Operation
The SureFire II SLR Lubricator has a motor-driven pump that
pulls oil in from the reservoir and delivers pressurised oil to the
distribution network through the outlet(s) in the top plate.
Pressurising the distribution network forces all of the
resistance fittings in the system to discharge the oil in
proportioned quantities to the friction points. The resistance
fittings continue to flow and the pump builds pressure until
pressure relief valve setting is reached (75 psi/5 bar). Once the
motor is shut off, pressure in the distribution network returns
to near 0 psi via a quick dump valve.
Installation & Commissioning
Install the SureFire II Lubricator in the
horizontal position ONLY. Attach the lubricator in the desired
location and to the desired equipment by means of an
appropriately sized bolt through each of the (2) mounting holes
in the top plate. (2L&3L=M6, 6L=M8)The lubricator should be
installed in a location that is easy to access, for purposes of
viewing the front panels, for ease of reservoir-filling, for ease
of service and for ease of attachment to the distribution
network plumbing.
Remember the SureFire II lubricator allows attachment of
distribution plumbing to either (or both) sides of the top plate.
If only one side is used, be sure to plug the unused outlet with a
G1/4 BSPP plug (two plugs are included with each lubricator).
Two liquid tight fittings are supplied with the lubricator. Use the
liquid tight fittings to secure the electrical wiring for the
lubricator and to prevent ingress of fluids or dirt into the
motor compartment. Typically one of the fittings is used to
bring “power” into the motor compartment and the other fitting
is used to bring “signal” into or out of the motor compartment.
All tubing, flexible hoses and fittings must be compatible with
the lubricant, operating pressure and surrounding
environment. In general, try to install the lubricator in the
lowest position (vertically) with relation to the rest of the
distribution network and do not allow the tubing to rise and fall
when avoiding obstacles. This is in case air enters the
distribution lines, the bubbles will tend to rise towards the end
of the distribution lines and not get caught anywhere along the
way. Any air bubbles trapped in the distribution network
plumbing may prevent the PDI injectors from working properly.
All electrical connections are to be made by
a qualified technician and all local electrical codes are to be
followed. When electrical connections are being made, do so
before the power leads are connected and before the power is
supplied.
Consult the wiring diagram (located under the motor cover) for
the correct wiring for your SureFire II lubricator.
The installation should include a means of
disconnecting the power supply for servicing. Such means shall
allow for switching off the power during normal operation and/
or in an emergency. Also, a residual current device is required
to automatically disconnect the power supply in the event of a
failure in basic insulation.
This emergency disconnecting switch shall be located in close
proximity to the equipment and be within easy reach. The switch
should be marked as the disconnecting device of the equipment,
shall have ON/OFF positions clearly identified and should meet
the requirements of IEC60947-1 or IEC60947-3.
Be sure that all plumbing distribution lines are clean, are not
kinked and are free from any chips or any other impurities.
Fill the reservoir through the fill cap and/or fill
cap strainer with clean lubricant specified by the Original
Equipment Manufacturer and that meets all of the lubricant
specifications to the right.
Do not overfill the reservoir. Never fill past the
“MAX” level as noted on the reservoir. Overfilling could cause
damage to the electrical components located under the motor
cover.
Pump Priming
Filling the reservoir and turning on the lubricator is usually
enough to prime the pump. However, in the case of a very thick
lubricant, sometimes it’s necessary to assist priming the pump.
Upon initial startup, if no lubricant is being delivered to the
pump outlet, make sure the pump is primed.
Avoid all kinds of impurities as dirt particles are the most
common cause of gear pump failure. If you wish to determine
whether the lubricant you plan on using is approved for use with
Bijur Lubricating Systems, you can consult the Customer
Service Department.
To prime the distribution network, plumb the entire system
(mainline tubing, manifolds, junctions, air/oil blocks, injectors,
injector outlet tubing to bearing points, meter units etc.). Then,
remove a plug or injector at the point furthest away from the
pump. Now, run the pump until bubble-free lubricant flows from
this point. Replace the plug or last injector.
Motor Duty Cycle:
100/115VAC & 200/230VAC motors: S3, 20%, 15 Min.
This means that the maximum continuous “on time” for
any cycle is 3 minutes, and if the motor continuous “on
time” for a cycle is X, the required minimum “off time”
for that same cycle is at least 4X. Each motor has an
internal high temperature cutoff switch.
