FAQ
-
How can I test and/or check if MEMOLUB® EM is functioning?
You can test and/or check whether MEMOLUB® EM is working correctly at anytime by unscrewing MEMOLUB® from the MEMO by one turn and screwing it back. MEMOLUB® EM will expulse once after being mounted to the MEMO.
If the environment is too noisy, unscrew MEMOLUB® EM from its MEMO and push the switch at the bottom of the housing for a few seconds. MEMOLUB® EM will then make an expulsion to confirm that electronic, mechanical and batteries are ok.
This operation has to be done with a cartridge inside the MEMOLUB® EM
Complete gavage of the pump with the adequate lubricant.
-
What to do if my MEMOLUB® EM automatic lubricator is not functioning?
Make a manual test of MEMOLUB® EM by using a MEMO with the MEMOLUB® EM
If MEMOLUB® EM does not work, check the following:- Is there a battery pack in the MEMOLUB® EM and is it correctly inserted?
- Are the batteries ok? Use another battery pack to double-check.
-
What to do when there is no lubricant coming out of my MEMOLUB® EM?
If MEMOLUB® EM does function, but no grease comes out of the automatic lubricator check the following:
- Is there a lubricant cartridge inside the MEMOLUB® EM? 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® EM primed? If the cartridge of MEMOLUB® EM 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
-
What to do when the lubricant cartridge is not emptied correctly?
If MEMOLUB® EM 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.
- The piping is damaged. Replace the piping.
- Counter pressure at the MEMOLUB® EM outlet is higher than 10 bar: please respect the tubbing diameters, tubing lengths, 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.
-
What to do when the lubricant does not reach the lubrication point?
MEMOLUB® EM 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.
-
