Lubricate up to 12* lube points with one lubricator
Multi-Point Lubricators
A Multi-Point Lubricator is an automatic lubrication system that delivers a metered amount of lubricant to multiple lube points from a centrally located lubricant reservoir.
MEMOLUB combines the 350psi output pressure with a progressive distribution block to form a cost-effective central lubrication system. MEMOLUB lubricators are available in a wide variety of power and control options to your match your production requirements.
Each system comes pre-assembled and includes a MEMOLUB lubricator, progressive distribution block, mounting bracket and tube fittings. Lubricant cartridge and pre-filled tubing are sold separately.

What is a Progressive Distribution Block?
A progressive distribution block is a key component in MEMOLUB Multi-Point Systems (MPS), it is used to ensure the gradual and sequential distribution of lubricant to multiple lubrication points. The block is designed to supply lubricant to each outlet one after the other, rather than all at once. This controlled sequence of distribution ensures that the lubrication points receive the correct amount of lubricant in the right order.
How Does the Progressive Distribution Block Work?
The progressive distribution block operates through a series of pistons within the distribution block, driven by the flow of lubricant from the MEMOLUB® lubricator. This is how it operates:
- Initial Movement: The first piston receives lubricant and moves to push it to the first outlet.
- Sequential Piston Movement: Once the first piston completes its stroke, it opens a passage allowing lubricant to flow into the next chamber, which moves the second piston. This process continues, with each piston in the block pushing lubricant to its respective outlet.
- Cycle Continuation: The process repeats, delivering lubricant to each outlet in sequence.
- System Reset: Once the last piston completes its stroke, the system resets, and the lubricant flow begins again, continuing the cycle as long as lubricant is supplied.
- Mechanical Linking: The pistons are mechanically linked, meaning that if one piston fails to move (due to a blockage or other issue), the entire cycle will stop. This design makes it easy to detect and troubleshoot any issues within the system, ensuring efficient operation.
Cross-port Couplers
Some MPS Systems use cross-port couplers to adjust the number of outlet ports. A cross-port coupler is an add-on part that allows two outlets of a progressive distributor block to be combined.
For example, by using a cross-port coupler, you can combine two outlets to increase the lubricant flow to a particular lube point from 0.3cc to 0.6cc.
