  • Change shot size quickly and easily
  • Functions with almost any grease or oil
  • Operates with low pressure grease
  • Solenoid Operated Output check valve prevents dripping
GPMD1005 Automatic Grease Dispenser

RELIABLE AND SIMPLE

The GPMD1005 grease dispenser uses a positive displacement air-operated pump, inlet check valve, outlet solenoid valve, and a simple stroke adjustment mechanism to accurately deliver measured shots of grease or oil. The solenoid valve allows a PLC to control the dispense based on inputs from a customer provided pressure sensor.

CLEAN AND ECONOMICAL

The GPMD1005 will function with low-pressure oil or grease. Grease is a combination of oil, thickeners, and solids and when grease is under high pressure, the oil can separate and drip and run. The thickeners and solids left behind will be more viscous than the grease. An advantage of dispensing grease at low pressures is reduced separation.

GPMD1005 SHOWN WITH SENSOR

INTENDED USE

Designed for use with optional pressure sensor that outputs to a PLC. When set point #1 pressure is reached, PLC energizes solenoid to allow grease to be dispensed and de-energizes solenoid after dispense. Set point pressure will not occur if there is no grease or if grease contains unacceptable volumes of air. Bleed valve can be used to discard contaminated grease.
