DIVIDER VALVES.<br />

Description<br />

Divider valves are comprised of<br />

three to eight valve blocks fastened<br />

to a segmented baseplate.<br />

O-rings are used to seal between<br />

the valve blocks and the base<br />

plate and between the base plate<br />

segments. These divider valves<br />

are used in a single line, progressive<br />

lubrication system and can be<br />

used for dispensing oil or grease.<br />

Valves and base plate segments<br />

are supplied with Viton O-rings (90<br />

Durometer).<br />

Valve blocks containing metering pistons discharge a predetermined amount of lubricant with<br />

each cycle. Valve blocks can be single or twin and can be externally singled or cross-ported.<br />

Outlets not to be used when singling or cross-porting must be plugged.<br />

A by-pass block can be used in any position on the base plate. The use of a by-pass block allows<br />

the addition or deletion of lubrication points without disturbing existing tubing. Both outlets<br />

under a by-pass block must be plugged.<br />

The valve blocks and by-pass blocks are fastened to a base plate mounted on the machine to<br />

be lubricated. The base plate contains the divider valve's inlet and outlet connections, interrelated<br />

passageways and built-in check valves. All piping of lubricant to and from the divider<br />

valve is connected to the base plate.<br />

The base plate consists of one inlet block, three to eight intermediate blocks, one end block<br />

and three tie rods. O-ring seals are included with the base plate segments. The valve block capacity<br />

of each base plate is dependent upon the number of intermediate blocks in the baseplate.<br />

There must be a minimum of three working valves on each valve and base plate<br />

assembly.<br />
