Avoid over-lubrication with UE Systems Grease Caddy
As many as 60 to 80 percent of all bearing failures (catastrophic, functional and premature) are lubrication-related: whether it’s poor lubricant selection, poor application, lubricant contamination or lubricant degradation. In addition to selecting the correct lubricant, use UE Systems’ ultrasound instruments to identify a lack of lubrication and prevent over lubrication conditions.
Set a baseline for each bearing, test routinely to note decibel increases. When a bearing reaches an 8 dB gain over baseline with no change in sound quality, it is in need of lubrication. When applying lubricant, stop when the dB level drops to baseline.
The UE Systems Grease Caddy is an instrument developed specifically for supporting your lubrication practices. Advantages:
- Cost effective instrument for lubrication engineers
- Simple to operate
- Keeps your hands free to lubricate with the help of mounting bracket or belt holster
