CHARACTERISTICS SMX/SMO MODULAR PROGRESSIVE DIVIDERS

The SMX/SMO modular dividers are capable of guaranteeing
- THREE TYPES OF precise lubrication while maximising the efficiency of
THREADING lubrication systems.
AVAILABLE: BSP, The divider consists of two main parts:
NPTF, SAE
- THE BASE (consisting of a minimum of three elements)
- SMX: UP TO 500 BAR
SMO: UP TO 400 BAR - THE METERING VALVES (available with both a single outlet as
well as a double one).
- OIL AND GREASE To maximize the performance of the plant, it is crucial to use electrical monitoring elements that detect
FUNCTION
malfunctioning or system blockage.
- CE AND ATEX Thanks to its modularity, the system can be easily expanded and replacement of metering elements can
MARKINGS occur without removing the pipework, thereby guaranteeing low maintenance costs. The modularity of
the dividers furthermore allows you to bundle lubrication points according to system requirements.
- BASES ALWAYS

THE BASES
THE BASE CONSISTS OF A MINIMUM OF THREE ELEMENTS.

INITIAL, INTERMEDIATE AND FINAL BASE

1. INITIAL BASE
For assembling, it is essential to know the number of outlets required
to lubricate the system in order to identify the number of useful
elements.

The screws are not included; it is recommended that you buy the BASE
AND ELEMENT ASSEMBLY KIT (part number 3140857 composed of no.
2. INTERMEDIATE BASE 3 screws for the assembly of the base- no. 3 threaded grub screws - no.
2 screws for the elements)

If you do not have special requirements, it is possible to order

assembled bases that are already mounted (see p. 3).

The elements can be assembled easily, without having to detach the

pipework.

3.END BASE During assembly, pay ATTENTION to the O-rings situated on the side of
the base.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES
DIVIDER ELEMENT TYPE OF DIVIDER APPLICATION
VERSION ELEMENT
STANDARD SMO - SMX Standard version ideal for the majority of oil and grease installation and Air/Oil lub. systems.
Metering elements designed for installations with lubricants (grease) with solid additive (e.g.
LOW PRESSURE-L SMO - SMX graphite, copper or silicone). L version has a particular clearance between the piston and the
metering element body which allows the passage of the thick particles which won’t be possible
with the standard version.
Metering elements for high pressure oil installations where there could be high counter-pressure at
HIGH PRESSURE - P SMX the lubrication point (e.g. gas compression plants). Accurate coupling between the metering
element body and the piston has been designed to reduce the risk of internal leakage.
NPT - U OUTLET SMX Metering elements with upper outlet in NPT.

METERING VALVES
A minimum of three valves are required to build an assembly and can extend up to an unlimited number of
elements.
The valves are available either with single outlet well as a double outlet (SAE and NPT).
In order to form the assembly in the most suitable manner, it is necessary to know the number of outlets
required, the flow rate of each outlet, and to include the UltraSensor monitoring device to verify proper
disbursement.
The installation takes place using the two mounting screws (to be ordered separately).
It is always possible to replace the valve with a different model without disconnecting the pipes or opening the
bases.

which coincide with the outlet: right bridge, left bridge or right/left bridge

BYPASS ELEMENT
The bypass element has the same dimensions as a divider element, but without an internal piston, therefore
without a metering system.
Its function is to create a reserve position where you can install a metering valve to increase the number of
outlets.
The installation takes place using the two mounting screws (to be ordered separately.)
The bypass element can be mounted on a dosing group where there are at least three effective metering
elements present.

IMPORTANT: After installation, remember to plug the outlets.

ASSEMBLY

The assembly and of the metering elements is very simple:

- Position the valve on its base.
- Insert fastening screws.
- Tighten them.
In case there is a bridge position it between the base and the valve,
remember to attach everything with the mounting screws supplied
with the bridge element.

DEVICE TO MERGE OR TO SEPARATE OUTLETS
It is possible to add the two flow rates of a single element by substituting the adapter, Part Number 641709, with the adapter, Part Number
641708, as illustrated in the drawing below. When the two outlets are connected, remember to close off the one that is not being used with a
plug. The tightening torque of these adapters to ensure the seal and dismantling should be 0.8-1 Kg m (8-10 Nm). The torque setting for the
fixing screws to mount the element on the base is 0.5 Kg m (5 Nm). When the two outlets are connected, remember to close off the one that
you do not want to use with a plug.

MONITORING DEVICES

VISUAL INDICATOR This sensor is designed to monitor the proper functioning of a progressive system
without allowing the lubricant to escape outside of the operating chamber.
The indicator allows for the course of the SMX metering piston element to be checked.
The electronic logic that characterises the sensor allows for a visual or acoustic alarm to
be transmitted or if necessary, it shuts down the system.

OVERPRESSURE INDICATOR
These indicators are generally used to control the overpressure on the primary and
secondary lines.
If an excessive increase in pressure is detected, the indicator pin projects out, and stays
in place until the release lever is lowered manually.
It is recommended to find out the reason and the location of the fault before lowering
the lever.

UltraSensor 2

Ultrasensor 2 was designed to replace systems with inductive proximity sensors,

mechanical micro-switches, and the magnetic contacts that monitor the movement of
the Pistons inside the divider elements of progressive systems.
The sensor is a screw-on accessory (laterally to the divider), without needing to make any
modifications to the divider.
This patented technology allows you to check the variations in magnetic flow when the
piston reaches the detection zone thanks to a Hall-Effect sensor.
There are no moving parts providing for a complete absence of wear.
The device is equipped with two LEDs:
1. MONITORING LED (ORANGE): allows you to see the output signal. The LED signal indicates proper operation of the sensor. The LED is lit
when the piston enters the detection zone and stays off when it is far away.
2. DIAGNOSTICS LED (GREEN): When switched on, the number of pulses indicates the magnetic flux. The number of pulses can vary from 0 to
10; When the LED blinks five times (number of standard pulses), this indicates that the device is working properly. The diagnostic system
makes it possible to verify correct magnetic field readings.
