1) The product is designed for operation with non-hazardous media. The owner-operator must check whether the lubricant used has certain hazardous
effects (such as sensitization). The installation of a drip pan could be required. Pressure-relief valves must also be used.
2) The operator must ensure that the pump is integrated into the higher-level machine in such a way that the pump can be operated and filled ergonomi-
cally.
3) The operator must protect the lubrication system against excessive pressure. This should be done by fitting every pump element with a pressure limiting
valve with suitable opening pressure (see the “Technical data” for the pump in question).
4) Not relevant inside the incomplete machine (pump), only outside the partially completed machine. The machine's owner or operator is responsible here.
5) The owner-operator must ensure that the pump is integrated into the main machine in such a way that it can be operated without danger.

•Use only hydraulic screw unions and lubrication lines
suitable for the specified pressure.
•Do not install lubrication lines on moving parts or chafe
points. If this cannot be avoided, use flexible hose lines
or anti-kink coils and/or conduits.
•Promptly apply suitable binding agents and then re-
move the spilled or leaked lubricant.
•Follow operational instructions for handling the lubri-
cants and contaminated parts.

2. Lubricants
2.1 General information
Lubricants are selected specifically for the relevant application.
The manufacturer or operator of the machine should ideally
make the selection in consultation with the supplier of the lubri-
cant. If you have no or little experience in selecting lubricants for
lubrication systems, please contact us. We would be happy to
assist you in selecting suitable lubricants and components to
build a lubrication system optimized for your particular applica-
tion. Consider the following points when selecting/using lubri-
cants. This will spare you potential downtime and damage to
the machine or lubrication system.
2.2 Material compatibility
The lubricants must generally be compatible with the following
materials:
•Plastics: ABS, CR, FPM, NBR, NR, PA, PET, PMMA, POM, PP,
PS, PTFE, PU, PUR
•Metals: steel, gray cast iron, brass, copper, aluminum
2.3 Temperature properties
The lubricant used must be suitable for the specific ambient
temperature of the product. The viscosity approved for proper
functioning must neither be exceeded at low temperatures nor
fall too low at high temperatures. For the approved viscosity,
see the “Technical data” chapter.
2.4 Aging of lubricants
Based on past experience with the lubricant used, checks should
be conducted at regular intervals defined by the operator, to
determine whether the lubricant needs to be replaced due to
aging processes (oil separation). In case of doubt regarding the
continued suitability of the lubricant, it must be replaced before
the system is started up again. If you do not yet have any expe-
rience with the lubricant used, we recommend conducting a
check after just one week.
2.5 Avoidance of faults and hazards
To avoid faults and hazards, please observe the following:
•When handling lubricants, observe the relevant safety data
sheet (SDS) and any hazard labeling on the packaging.
•Due to the large number of additives, some lubricants that
meet the pumpability requirements specified in the manual
are not suitable for use in centralized lubrication systems.
•Whenever possible, always use SKF lubrication greases. They
are ideal for use in lubrication systems.
•Do not mix lubricants. This can have unpredictable effects on
the properties and usability of the lubricant.
•Use lubricants containing solid lubricants only after technical
consultation with SKF.
•The lubricant’s ignition temperature has to be at least 50 kel-
vin above the maximum surface temperature of the compo-
nents.
2.6 Solid lubricants
Solid lubricants may only be used after prior consultation with
SKF. When solid lubricants are used in lubrication systems, the
following rules generally apply:
Graphite:
•Maximum graphite content 8%
•Maximum grain size 25 µm (preferably in lamellar form)
MoS2:
•Maximum MoS2 content 5%
•Maximum grain size 15 µm
Copper:
•Lubricants containing copper are known to lead to coatings
forming on pistons, bore holes, and mating surfaces. This can
result in blockages in the centralized lubrication system.
Calcium carbonate:
•Lubricants containing calcium carbonate are known to lead to
very heavy wear on pistons, bore holes, and mating surfaces.
Calcium hydroxide:
•Lubricants containing calcium hydroxide are known to harden
considerably over time, which can lead to failure of the cen-
tralized lubrication system.
PTFE, zinc, and aluminum:
•For these solid lubricants, it is not yet possible to define any
limit values for use in lubrication systems on the basis of ex-
isting knowledge and practical experience.

Eccentric shaft
Legend to Figure 4:
1 Eccentric shaft
2 Pump elements (1-15)
Functional description:
The gearbox (fig. 3/4) reduces the speed of the motor (fig. 3/5)
to the speed required for the eccentric shaft (fig. 4/1).
The eccentric shaft (Fig. 4/1) drives the pump elements
(Fig. 3/3 and Fig. 4/2) and the stirring paddle.
The stirring paddle homogenizes the lubricant, purges it of
air, and pushes it toward the suction bores of the pump ele-
ments (Fig. 3/3 and Fig. 4/2).
The pump elements (Fig. 3/3 and Fig. 4/2) pump the lubricant
by the motion of their pistons.
This involves a suction phase (when the lubricant is suctioned
out of the reservoir) and then a pressure phase (when the lubri-
cant is pumped into the lubrication line).
A sensor detects the level of lubricant remaining in the reser-
voir (and issues a full or low-level signal, when applicable).

3.2 Fill level monitoring XBI / XLI

functions and equipment features of the fill level monitoring:

4 Guide plate
5 Magnet
6 Cam
7 Reed switch (low-level signal)
8 Stirring paddle
9 Reservoir
Functional description – fill level monitoring:
The low-level signal mechanism comprises the reed switch
(Fig. 5/7) and the magnet (Fig. 5/5) fastened to the baffle plate
(Fig. 5/4). The baffle plate can rotate to a limited extent, and is
joined to the stirring paddle (Fig. 5/8).
As long as the baffle plate is in the grease, the grease acts as
a drag on it every time the stirring paddle rotates. The magnet
(Fig. 5/5) constantly moves toward the center of the reservoir.
Its guiding part is therefore constantly on the cam (Fig. 5/6) of
the housing assembly.
Shortly after passing the fixed paddle (Fig. 5/3), the cam
forces the magnet out toward the reservoir wall. However, the
drag of the grease on the baffle plate always directs the magnet
back toward the center of the reservoir. In this position of rota-
tion, the magnet (Fig. 5/5) cannot activate the reed switch.
If the grease falls to a minimum level (so that it does not apply
any drag), the magnet stays in the outer position (reservoir wall)
where it activates the reed switch (Fig. 5/7) during every rota-
tion. This produces an intermittent low-level signal.
Functional description – reed switch (low-level signal):
The reed switches are fitted with hermetically sealed reed con-
tacts. They are activated by the magnetic field of a magnet,
without any contact or wear.
NOTE
The lifetime of the reed switch is heavily dependent on the
load conditions. Since the maximum switching capacity
specifications apply to purely resistive loads, which are not
always ensured in practice, appropriate contact protection
measures are required in the case of deviating loads.
Functional description – capacitive sensor (full signal):
The sensor for the full signal (Fig. 5/2) operates on a capacitive
principle. The sensor is factory-set. When the reservoir is filled
with lubricant, the sensor is triggered approx. 8 to 2 mm before
the sensor surface is reached, depending on the dielectric prop-
erties of the lubricant, and reports “reservoir full.”

Direction of pump rotation
The direction of rotation is always clockwise (CW). Observe the arrow on the reservoir. If the direction
of rotation is different: Switch the pump off immediately and check the electrical connection.
Permissible speeds
•Grease:
min.: 2.5 rpm
max.: 20 rpm
•Oil:
min.: 2.5 rpm
max.: 35 rpm
If the pump is delivered without a motor and gearbox, compliance with these speeds must be ensured
by selecting a suitable motor and gearbox
1) All system parts must be designed for the maximum operating pressure. Every pump element must be safeguarded with a suitable
pressure limiting valve to prevent higher pressures.
2) The weight of the empty pump lies somewhere within the weight range specified, depending on the components fitted (e.g., a number of
pump elements, reservoir capacity, motor and gearbox versions). The weight of the lubricant in the reservoir would need to be added to
this weight.
3) The specifications are valid for grease of NLGI Grade 2 at + 20 °C and 100 bar back pressure. Other conditions, such as a different NLGI
Grade, temperature, or back pressure may cause a different delivery rate, which must be considered in the design of the lubrication
points.
