L68C-AGE-ERN

Quick Summary

Norgren L68C-AGE-ERN is an oil fog lubricator designed for high-flow air systems and heavy lubrication near large bore cylinders. Many engineers struggle to maintain a consistent oil-to-air ratio across changing flows, risking tool wear and unreliable cycles. Typical industrial approvals for this class of product include CE marking and commonly available IP-rated variants, with SIL considerations for safety-critical interfaces; always verify the exact approvals on the official datasheet. The model centers on modularity, reliability, and predictable lubrication—delivering value through a plug-in yoke system and scalable bowl options. By combining robust materials with precise flow sensing, it supports reduced maintenance, improved cycle times, and measurable cost savings in manufacturing environments. This translates to better uptime and smoother operations across pneumatic tooling and automation lines.

The Olympian Plus plug-in yoke system is the core of L68C-AGE-ERN’s modularity. This architecture lets you mix and match mounting, bowl size, and service kits without rewiring, shortening installation times and reducing downtime on high-use lines. In practice, engineers deploy it in packaging, automation, and CNC tooling setups where service windows are scarce. Oil fog lubrication supports heavier lubrication over short distances, a common requirement near large bore cylinders, air motors, and air tools. The system delivers a stable mist that protects seals and reduces initial wear, translating into longer tool life and more consistent cycle times. Combined with a G1-1/4 port and 17 bar maximum pressure, it fits a wide range of standard industrial pneumatic circuits. A built-in flow sensor keeps nearly constant oil-to-air ratios across flow ranges, reducing oil waste and maintaining performance. This feature enhances energy efficiency and compliance with lubrication standards by limiting excess consumption. In applications with variable demand, such as automatic clamping or impact tools, you get reliable lubrication without manual adjustments. Optional bowl sizes allow you to tailor capacity to space constraints and production rhythm. The closed bowl design minimizes contamination and splash, while the aluminium body and bowl provide durability in harsh environments. Mounting accessories, from Yoke assemblies to wall brackets, simplify integration into existing Olympian Plus installations. Solid build quality with aluminium body and bowl and nitrile elastomer seals yields a rugged solution suitable for Czechia-manufactured origins and industrial settings. With a dimension footprint of 264 mm by 200 mm by 108 mm and a weight of 1.8 kg, the L68C-AGE-ERN fits compact lines without sacrificing capacity. Its compatibility with service kits ensures fast, cost-effective maintenance.

FAQs

Mounting options align with the Olympian Plus plug-in approach. Use Yoke assemblies such as Y68A-AGN-N2N or Y68A-AGN-N1N for quick, tool-free mounting, and pair with the wall bracket 18-001-978 for fixed installations. If you need quick-feed options, the 18-011-021 quick-fill nipple adapts lubricator feeds without interrupting airflow. This combination supports fast deployment in busy automation lines while keeping service access simple.
Key specs include a flow of 400 dm3/sec (848 scfm), a start point of 52 dm3/sec, and a maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar, all for oil fog lubrication. The unit uses a G1-1/4 port and a closed bowl. A built-in flow sensor maintains a near-constant oil-to-air ratio across operating ranges, ensuring stable lubrication for large bore cylinders, air motors, and tooling in automated lines.
Yes, the lubricator operates from -20 to 80 °C (-4 to 176 °F), which covers many industrial settings. The aluminium body and bowl provide robust mechanical strength while keeping weight manageable. For outdoor or harsher environments, consider IP-rated enclosures and confirm the exact environmental ratings in the datasheet to ensure compatibility with your location and duties.
Maintenance is supported by the L68C service kit (L68C-KIT) and compatible spare parts such as replaceable elastomer seals. The aluminium body/bowl and nitrile elastomers are chosen for durability and compatibility with common pneumatic lubricants. For scheduled service, reference the datasheet and use the service kit to refresh flow sensors, seals, and connections, minimizing unexpected downtime.
The combination of modular plug-in mounting, a robust oil fog mechanism, and a flow sensor delivering a stable oil/air ratio reduces maintenance time and oil waste. This translates to longer tool life, fewer unplanned stops, and more predictable cycle times, delivering tangible productivity gains and a favorable return on investment when deployed across multiple lubrication points in a plant.
