SL-V injector operation

Stage 1

The injector starts in its normal or rest position. Incoming lubricant is directed through the slide valve to both sides of the piston. The pressure of the incoming lubricant acting on both sides of the piston causes the piston to move downward against the shoulder and fills the measuring chamber. The indicator stem is fully retracted away from the stop of the adjusting screw.

Stage 2

A further increase in pressure causes the slide valve to move against the force of the springs. As the slide valve moves, it closes passage 1 and opens passage 2 to the outlet port. The pressure of the incoming lubricant is now acting only upon the bottom of the piston. The incoming lubricant displaces the piston which forces the lubricant in the measuring chamber to be dispensed through passage 2, through the slide valve and through the outlet port to the lube point.

Stage 3

The piston will dispense lubricant until the indicator stem hits the stop of the adjusting screw. The volume of lubricant dispensed can be adjusted by limiting the travel of the piston. The piston and slide valve remains in this position until the lubricant pressure in the supply line is vented.

Stage 4

As the pressure in the supply line vents to 1,000 psi (69 bar), the slide valve moves downward and closes passage 2 and opens passage 1. The lubricant pressure in the supply line is now acting upon both sides of the piston causing it to move downward. As the piston moves downward, a volume of lubricant flows from the underside of the piston, past the slide valve, through passage 1 and to the upper side of the piston. Since the volume on top of the piston is greater than the volume under the piston, an additional volume of lubricant flows from the supply line to the upper side of the piston. This volume of lubricant leaving the supply line causes the pressure to drop very quickly. The piston may or may not fully return to the shoulder, depending upon the volume of lubricant in the supply line. The injector is now ready for the next cycle.
