Why choose the Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system?

Reliable oil lubrication helps prevent equipment damage and machine downtime in industrial production. The Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system accurately measures oil flow and promptly issues critical alarms, supporting stable equipment operation.

When discussing the benefits of the Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system, we often ask: Have you experienced a bearing failure in the past year? If so, the plant inevitably faces financial losses, mainly for the following reasons:

- Machine downtime: bearing failure can force a machine to stop, directly interrupting production and reducing efficiency and output.

- Bearing repair requires labor and materials, increasing repair costs and downtime.

- Bearing replacement: in serious cases, a completely new bearing is required, creating a significant additional expense.

- Safety risk: excessive bearing-housing temperature can cause a fire, posing a serious threat to the entire plant.

There are many ways to lubricate bearings. What are the key reasons customers choose the Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system?

Effective control of bearing lubrication-oil flow can greatly reduce the likelihood of bearing failure.

The Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system measures oil flow to bearings and provides three alarm types. These allow prompt action when problems arise, even while the machine continues operating.

The Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system uses the oval-gear principle to monitor oil flow to bearings. If the meter slows, the system immediately issues a low-flow alarm; if the gears stop, it issues a very-low-flow alarm. Turning the bypass valve 90 degrees restores oil flow to the bearing and allows inspection while lubrication continues—for example, removing the cover, taking out the gears and cleaning them.

A high-flow alarm is also provided. It helps prevent a situation in which the bearing receives no oil even though operation appears normal. For example, after bearing maintenance during a shutdown, a lubrication-point connection may be overlooked. Without resistance from the bearing housing, oil flow rises well above normal, triggering an alarm so the operator can take action.

High measurement accuracy and good repeatability allow precise adjustment of oil flow to bearings according to actual requirements. The appropriate flow cools bearings to their optimum temperature and significantly extends bearing life.

The Weidoya Kytola oil-lubrication flow monitoring system offers a wide range of options for bearing systems, including large machines with hundreds of bearings. Our experienced engineering team can tailor oil-lubrication solutions to your requirements.
