MEMOLUB EPS SERIES KNOWLEDGE BASE

You can test and/or check whether the MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator is working correctly at anytime by unscrewing the device from the MEMO by one turn and screwing it back. Your MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator will expulse once after being mounted to the MEMO.

If the environment is too noisy, unscrew your MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator from its MEMO and, push on one of the three switches at the bottom of the housing for a few seconds. The lubricator will then make an expulsion to confirm that electronic, mechanical and batteries are ok.

Operate this operation three times pushing each switch at least once to ensure all three switches are operational and the complete gavage of the pump with the adequate lubricant. This operation has to be done with a cartridge inside the MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator.

Make a manual test of your MEMOLUB EPS lubricator by using a MEMO with the three rings in the ring-holder.

If your MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator does not work, check the following:

• Is the power supply ON?
• Does the power supply voltage have the right amplitude (24V DC) and polarity (brown=positive, blue=negative) ?
• Is there any discontinuity in the wiring?
• Are there one or more plastic rings inside the ring-holder? If not, no switch will be activated and the MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator will not work. Make sure you insert them correctly as explained in the installation guidelines.

If MEMOLUB EPS does function, but no grease comes out of the automatic lubricator check the following:

• Is there a lubricant cartridge inside the MEMOLUB EPS? If not, recharge the unit with a cartridge as described in the installation guidelines.
• Was the spring mounted correctly inside the transparent housing? If not, please mount it again as described in the installation guidelines.
• Is the pump of the MEMOLUB EPS primed? If the cartridge of MEMOLUB EPS was totally emptied before replacement, some air could have been sucked into the system and the pump would cavitate for a certain number of cycles. Place a grease handgun on the suction valve of the red housing and pump grease through the unit as explained in the installation guidelines.

If MEMOLUB EPS does function but the lubricant cartridge does not empty or not in the predicted timing there might be that of the following issues occurs:

• The piping is clogged: use a handgun to clear the pipes.
• One of the outlets of the distributor block has been voluntarily obstructed. Use bridging elements to reduce the number of outlets of a distributor block.
• The piping is damaged. Replace the piping.
• Counter pressure at the MEMOLUB EPS outlet is higher than 13 bar: please respect the tubbing diameters, tubing lengths, the number of outlets per distribution block and the working temperatures. Also, use fittings with openings larger than 4mm (0.157").
• At working temperature, the base oil viscosity of the grease is higher than 10.000cSt. Please use low temperature lubricants.

MEMOLUB EPS does function and empties correctly, however no lubricant is reaching the lubrication point. Possible causes are:

• The piping might be damaged, please check and replace if necessary.
• A fitting is not correctly screwed or sealing is missing, please check and replace or add if necessary.

The MEMOLUB EPS Series does not require any specific maintenance. When used in humid or dusty atmospheres MEMOLUB EPS Series can be cleaned with compressed air or a slightly humid rag. To clean MEMOLUB EPS do not use solvents or plunge unit in any liquid. It is also possible to equip your MEMOLUB EPS Series lubricator with a protection cover. For additional information, please contact your local MEMOLUB dealer.
