APPLICATION AND GENERAL FEATURES OF PRODUCT
Progressive distributor
Compact block design
Medium: grease and oil
Operating pressure up to 350 bar
up to 20 outlets for Ø 6 mm pipe
Metered volume 0.20 cm

Material: steel with corrosion-resistant zinc-nickel coating as per DIN 50970 or stainless steel 1.4305/1.4404
Visual or electric monitoring possible
engraved distributor coding for permanent traceability
The PVB – distributors are mainly used in progressive systems using standardised metered quantities and offer a
cost-effective and rational solution for the central supply of lubrication points. In addition, the high operating pressure up to
350 bar provides the function of sub-distributors in large two-line systems.
4.
DESIGN AND FUNCTION
PVB distributors are piston distributors which evenly distribute the supplied lubricant. This is achieved by means of metal
sealing pistons which dispense the lubricant to the connected lubrication points progressively (one after another). Due to the
way the pistons work under pressure in the PVB distributor, it is possible to monitor the functioning of the system (either
visually or electronically) with little effort. The distributor dispenses for as long as it is supplied with lubricant at a sufficient
pressure. Once an individual metered volume (0.20 cm
3
) of lubricant is dispensed from each outlet in turn this is called a
distributor cycle. The lubricant required is controlled via the number of cycles / time units.

Closing outlets
Within the distributor block it is possible to connect adjacent outlets or outlets that are opposite each other, in order to
achieve a higher metered volume for individual outlets, for example.
WARNING
Special fittings with non-return valves (similar to DIN 2353 - CLL 6 - St fittings) are used to connect the lubrication lines for
6 mm diameter pipes; these also take on a sealing function inside the distributor. These fittings cannot be replaced by
regular cutting ring fittings. The non-return valves that are incorporated into the outlet fittings ensure that the distributor
works in a reliable way even with small quantities of lubricant and high counter pressure in lines made of flexible material.
The flow of lubricant inside the distributor must be guaranteed; otherwise the distributor will become blocked. The following
illustration shows the two alternatives for connecting and locking distributor outlets.

Monitoring
The PVB distributor can be fitted with a motion indicator on the last outlet pair for visually monitoring the piston movement.
During one distributor cycle the motion indicator moves out and in once
or the reverse, depending on the piston position.
In addition the motion indicator can be read electrically using a proximity switch. In this case it must be ensured that the
same side is always evaluated using the control mechanism.

EXAMPLES OF ORDER
By combining two outlets the metered quantity is doubled. If an outlet is closed, in order to obtain an odd number of outlets,
this leads to a metered quantity ratio of 2:1 at one outlet. If equal metered quantities are required, all the outlets must be
coded as combined outlet pairs. The following examples show frequently used configurations for 2 - 6 outlets:

NOTES ON DISTRIBUTOR DESIGN
Quantity ratios
The basis of the distributor design is the number of all lubricant points to be supplied with the required lubricant/time unit.
From this the available quantity ratios are calculated. The aim is to achieve the desired quantity of lubricant in “X” number of
distributor cycles. The specified metered quantity/ cycle is not relevant for the supply to the lubrication points. It does not
make any difference in practice whether a distributor dispenses e.g. 3 x 0.4 or 3 x 0.8 cm
3
on the lubrication points per cycle.
The crucial factor is only the pumping capacity and its distribution over the PVB distributor, as the following example shows.
Pumping capacity:
12 cm
3
/min
Distributor configuration 1: 3 x 0.4 cm
3
Distributor configuration 2: 3 x 0.8 cm
3
In both cases the 3 lubrication points each receive 4 cm
3
/min, since the distributors divide the lubricant into three equal
quantities.
Distributor 1 thus clocks 10 cycles/min, distributor 2 needs only 5 cycles/min due to the higher metered quantity and simply
runs more slowly. Thus only the cycle frequency of the distributor changes.
Monitoring (can be selected as an option)
In a closed progressive system it is recommended to monitor the distributors, in order to allow you to observe and control
how the system is working. Electrical monitoring can be used not only for monitoring the function of the system, but also as
an indicator for the automatic control of the system. The required supply quantity is programmed, with breaks and
monitoring time, via the number of distributor cycles.
Which distributors are monitored in the progressive system?
If a progressive system consists of main and sub-distributors, only the main distributors are monitored electrically as a rule.
Visual monitoring is sufficient for the sub-distributors. The following illustration shows a typical system design with PVB main
and sub-distributors.
11
BIJUR DELIMON INTERNATIONAL
BA_2017_1_GB_PVB
8.
NOTES ON DISTRIBUTOR DESIGN
Example: Progressive system with main and sub-distributors
In the above example four equal sub-distributors are connected to a main distributor. The main distributor divides the
quantity supplied by the pump into four equal parts. The lubrication points thus all receive the same quantity.
Each sub-distributor needs 1.2 cm
3
(6x 0.2 cm
3
) for one cycle. The main distributor feeds in 0.4 cm
3
per cycle, i.e. after three
cycles each sub-distributor receives the required quantity to dispense 0.2 cm
3
to each lubrication point
connected to it. If
each lubrication point needs e.g. 1 cm
3
/day, then 15 cycles of the main distributor are required per day. It is generally
preferable to divide the lubrication quantity over several intervals (e.g. 2x per hour).
Further details on the mode of operation and control of progressive systems can be found in the general description of the
system. We are happy to take on the design of complete systems for you – please contact our expert technical
advisors directly.
Pressure resistant version 350 bar (can be selected as an option)
The pressure resistant version is only needed if a supply pressure of over 160 bar may arise due to factors such as
extremely long lines, grease that is difficult to convey or low ambient temperature. In most applications 160 bar are
sufficient. We can calculate the system pressure for you with the help of our comprehensive rheometer database. If
necessary we can offer you tests specially for your type of grease.

ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
WARNING
Assembly of the PVB distributor may only be carried out by qualified personnel. An appropriate commercially available tool
must be used to assemble the pipelines and cutting ring fittings.
Please contact our service department if necessary. We can provide service engineers or supervisors for assembly, training
and induction – either at a flat rate or invoiced per day.
Installation position and mounting:
The progressive distributor is mounted by means of two mounting holes Ø 7, preferably with M 6 x 40 hexagonal bolts and
washers. The mounting bolts are not normally included in delivery and must be ordered separately if required (see table on
page 13).
o
The PVB distributor can be fitted in any mounting position without limitations.
The side with the engraved outlet numbering should face upwards (to be
permanently visible). The pipeline ports are thus on the upper side, which makes
it easier to fit the pipes.
o
The distributor must be mounted in a stress-free position on a flat surface.
o
Weld-on plates (optionally available) must only be welded on without the distributor fitted.

ASSEMBLY, INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING
Positioning the PVB distributor:
o
When installing the distributors it must be ensured that they are positioned as close as possible and in the centre
of the connected lubrication points (as far as possible).
o
The PVB distributors must be easily accessible for maintenance and monitoring purposes.
Fitting the pipelines or hoses:
WARNING
o
The lubrication lines must be filled with lubricant before fitting.
o
Only clean grease or oil may be used!
Particles of dirt can block the distributor and cause the system to fail!
o
Cleanliness must be maintained during installation!
o
The pipelines must be checked for any contamination (e.g. shavings, etc.)and cleaned if necessary before being
filled with lubricant and connected to the distributor.
Commissioning:
o
Ensure that the distributor and all the connected pipes are correctly installed before you operate the distributor and
lubrication system.
o
Ensure that the pump that is connected cannot exceed the permitted operating pressure for the distributor or that it is
equipped with a pressure relief valve. Especial care should be taken when using manual lube guns. Most of these can
easily produce a pressure of over 500 bar.
o
Monitoring the system pressure with a manometer or pressure switch is recommended.
o
Once fitted, check the proper operation and impermeability of the system at each installed distributor and lubrication
point.
Example of installation:
Continuous operation:
The distributor is designed for continuous operation. Care should be taken during the entire operating phase that the
specified operating pressure and temperature range are not exceeded. Only approved lubricant which is free of
contamination may be used.
Disassembly:
The distributor must only be disassembled when it is at a standstill and depressurized.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
The PVB distributor is basically maintenance-free. Servicing is not required if it is properly operated.
We do not recommend opening/dismantling the distributor. The pistons fit tightly into each cylinder and the smallest amount
of contamination can cause a malfunction. Opening the locking contacts and removing the pistons must only be done in clean
surroundings by qualified personnel.
WARNING
Possible malfunctions and troubleshooting.
Malfunction:
Possible
cause:
- Leaks
Fittings have not been tightened sufficiently or have become loose due to vibration
- Distributor not (no longer) running
- Blockage in one of the attached, lubrication points or lubrication lines
- Blockage in the downstream sub-distributor
- Pistons inside the distributor blocked by dirt
- No lubricant supply due to a pump or control system malfunction
- No lubricant supply due to a leak or blockage in the supply line
Troubleshooting procedure:
1.
Make sure that the pump is supplying lubricant. Remove the inlet fitting on the PVB distributor and let the pump run
until lubricant comes out of the open line. If there is no supply of lubricant, check the pump and supply line – otherwise
proceed to step 2.
2.
Reconnect the inlet fitting (with the system at a standstill) and remove all the outlet lines connected to the PVB
distributor. Restart the pump. If no lubricant comes out of the distributor outlets, then there is a blockage inside the
distributor. The distributor needs replacing. At the same time the visible grease should be checked for particles of dirt,
so that the same problem does not occur again with the new distributor or with other system components. If the
distributor runs properly after removing the outlet fittings, proceed to step 3.
3.
The cause of the malfunction is not in the distributor itself, but in at least one of the attached lines or lubrication points,
or possibly in a sub-distributor. Reconnect the disconnected outlet fittings one by one and carry out a test run after
reconnecting each one. This makes it possible to isolate the malfunction and find the affected line.
