Norgren L68M-8GP-MUQ Micro Fog Lubricator - G1, 17 bar
Part Number: L68M-8GP-MUQ
Quick Summary
Norgren L68M-8GP-MUQ Micro fog lubricator is a compact, reliable lubrication solution for general pneumatic systems. Engineers often face uneven oil-to-air ratios and downtime when refilling bowls on long, intricate pipework. This design aligns with CE-compliant practices and uses an aluminium body with a manual drain for robust, maintenance-friendly operation. For businesses, it delivers consistent lubrication across varying flows, supports modular mounting, and integrates with Olympian Plus accessories to scale across lines. The unit's flow sensor maintains a near-constant oil/air ratio, helping optimize lubrication budgets and extend component life in shops and plants. By combining precise delivery with simple service, it reduces waste and accelerates maintenance cycles.

FAQs
The L68M-8GP-MUQ uses the Olympian Plus plug-in yoke system for quick, modular mounting. For versatile installation, consider Y68A-8GN-N1N or Y68A-8GN-N2N yoke assemblies, a wall bracket (18-001-979), and the service kit L68M-KIT for periodic maintenance. The quick-fill nipple accessory 18-011-021 speeds refills, reducing downtime on multi-station lines.
Key specs include a G1 port size, maximum inlet pressure of 17 bar, and a flow of 175 dm3/sec (371 scfm) with a start point of 6 dm3/sec. The unit delivers micro fog lubrication with aluminium body components and a manual drain, suitable for long pipe runs and variable demand without over- or under-lubrication.
Yes. The micro fog approach provides fine mist distribution ideal for long or intricate pipework, ensuring uniform lubrication along extended runs. Its modular yoke system simplifies installation across multiple stations, and the 17 bar maximum inlet supports many standard factory air circuits.
The Olympian Plus line is designed with European compliance in mind; look for CE-related documentation and certifications listed in the datasheet. Material choices (aluminium body, nitrile elastomers) and rugged construction align with typical industrial expectations for safety, reliability, and regulatory adherence in pneumatic lubrication equipment.
Maintenance is simplified by a manual drain, modular yoke system, and availability of a dedicated service kit (L68M-KIT). The quick-fill accessory reduces refill time, while the micro fog design lowers oil consumption and waste. Together, these features translate to lower operating costs and shorter downtime on high-throughput lines.
