Manzel Model 55 Box LubricatorsRESERVOIRSDESCRIPTIONFour reservoir sizes are available for the Model 88 Pump.Each is ruggedly built to reduce deflection and providelonger life.Camshaft intermediate support bearings are bottommounted to an inside channel to provide maximumrigidity without adding length.51040MOUNTINGMounting slots run the length of the lubricator on theback and bottom. The slots accept the mounting lugsprovided or standard 1/4 — 20 hex head bolts for studmounting. The slots allow you to adjust the lugs/studs atany position between the minimum and maximumshown. The bottom slots are used for mounting tohorizontal surfaces. The back slots are for mounting tovertical surfaces.Each reservoir is equipped to handle the maximumnumber of pumps. Unused pump stations are coveredwith a gasketed, blank cover assembly that can easilybe removed to convert to an active pump station.DIMENSIONSFEATURESIBENEFITSn Rugged construction for durabilityCODE PUMP CAP’Y“A”“B”“C”BLO323 PINT(1.4)8.25(209.5)4.62(117.5)5.75(146.0)BL045n Versatile-permits mounting drive motor on right end4 PINT(1.9)13.50(342.9)4.69(119.0)11.00(279.4)BL087n Precise camshaft alignment insures proper lubrica-8 12 PINT(5.7)22.00(558.8)4.44(112.7)19.5(495.3)n Complete assembly-includes level sight gauge, fillcup and drain plugtion by all pumpsn Can be used in outdoor and ammonia (sour gas)locationsNote: When the 200:1 & 300:1 drive is specified.

Manzel Model 55 Box Lubricators51040OPERATIONPumps With Vacuum Feed(Sight Glass Type)DESCRIPTIONManzel Model 55 Box Lubricators feature heavy-dutyprecision metering pumps capable of accurately pumping small flows of either mineral or synthetic oil tomachinery injection points. The single-piston pump ismechanically driven from a common camshaft in thereservoir and is adjustable from 1 to 27 drops per stroke.The drive options provide many more variations to suitthe application. Model 88 Pumps are interchangeablewith competitive models. The pump’s maximum pressureis variable up to 7,500 psi depending on the piston size.All working parts are totally enclosed away from dirt,water, and impurities and self-lubricated at all times bythe fluid in the reservoir.Rotation of the lubricator cam actuates the pump rockerarm assembly to operate the pump piston. On thepiston downstroke, spring force is exerted on the pistoncausing it to follow the cam. As it moves down, apressure reduction is created in the area between thepiston and the discharge check valve. The supply inletshutoff ball is concurrently unseated and lubricant isdrawn into the piston cylinder from the sight well. Thisaction creates a pressure reduction (vacuum) in the airtight sight well, causing lubricant from the reservoir tobe drawn into the well until pressure is equalized. Onthe piston upstroke, the oil in the piston cylinder reseatsthe inlet shutoff ball and is forced out through thedischarge check valve to the machine injection point.The number of drops seen falling in the sight well equalsthe amount of oil discharged by the pump. Pumpvolume can be adjusted by means of an external screw.This changes the length of the piston stroke whichchanges the pump discharge volume.Model 88 Pumps are rugged, heavy duty units. Thepump cylinder housing is a precision machined castingfitted with an alloy steel piston.The pump is actuated by a hardened steel roller followinga cam for low torque and longer life. The visual sight isone-piece injection molded material that is impervious toultra-violet rays, and mineral and synthetic oils.Three piston sizes are available to produce outputs up to27 drops per stroke.Pumps WithSight GlassFEATURES/BENEFITSn Rugged construction for high performance anddurabilityn Easy serviceability-pumps can be added or replacedquicklyn Pump output is easily adjustablePage 5R

Manzel Model 55 Box Lubricators51040Pumps With Gravity Feed andPressurized SuppliesRotation of the lubricator cam actuates the pump rockerarm assembly to operate the pump piston. On thepiston downstroke, spring force is exerted on the pistoncausing it to follow the cam. As it moves down, apressure reduction is created in the area between thepiston and the discharge check valve. The gravity feedor pressurized supply unseats the supply inlet shutoffball and fills the piston bore with lubricant. On the pistonupstroke, the oil in the piston cylinder reseats the inletshutoff ball and is forced out through the dischargecheck valve to the machine injection point. Pumpvolume can be adjusted by means of an external screw.This changes the length of the piston stroke whichchanges the pump discharge volume.Pumps WithPressurized Supplies345ADJUSTMENT1725Pump discharge (output flow can be adjusted within themin./max. ranges as shown in the illustration. Theadjustment is linear. Therefore, positioning the screwmidway will produce one-half of the pump capacity. Toadjust the flow, proceed as follows:1. Loosen adjusting screw locknut.2. Turn the adjusting screw to the desired positionand, with the pump operating, count the dropsfalling in the sight well for a one-minute interval andthen compute the drops per stroke as follows: 10 drops per stroke50If the drops were counted for a 10-second interval (1/6 ofa minute), the pump discharge could be computed asfollows:57 x 6 9.913 or 10 drops per stroke172550Number of drops drops per strokeMotor speed*Gear reduction (if any)*lf there is no gear reduction the number is one.Example:With a 1/4" piston pump, at a 50:1 gear reduction,assume that 345 drops were counted in a one-minuteinterval.

Maximum allowable inlet pressure: Pressurized pump, 100 PSI; Pressurized pump with sight glass, 10 PSI.NOTE: Any static positive pressure applied to the pump inlet has the potential to cause leakage flow through apump at rest or adjusted for zero stroke unless offset by a check valve of comparable pressure ratinglocated at the pump outlet. The "discharge check valve" pictured has no spring and is rated at zero PSI.The "outlet check valve" pictured in phantom in view at bottom of next page is rated at 35 PSI.DRIVE OPTIONSDESCRIPTIONTen drive options are available.
