Norgren L72M-2GP-EWN Lubricator - Micro Fog, Closed Bowl
Part Number: L72M-2GP-EWN
Quick Summary
Norgren L72M-2GP-EWN lubricator provides micro fog lubrication for general pneumatic systems in automation lines. Operators often struggle with inconsistent oil-to-air ratios across varying flow, leading to uneven wear and maintenance spikes. This Excelon series unit integrates a flow sensor to keep nearly constant oil/air ratios and supports inline or modular installation for flexible layouts. Designed with a guard-friendly closed bowl and G1/4 port, it helps meet contamination control and service intervals. For European operations and mixed environments, the design aligns with common CE-ready practices and industry safety expectations, while the compact form and materials selection support reliable performance in demanding automation environments. Use cases span general pneumatic lubrication, long pipe runs, and scalable line expansion.

FAQs
The L72M-2GP-EWN supports inline or modular installation with a G1/4 port and a closed-bowl guard. For retrofit projects, refer to the Installation Guide (PDF) to determine mounting orientation, compatible piping runs, and bowl guarding requirements. The unit’s compact form factor simplifies in-line upgrades across various automation lines.
The Excelon micro fog lubricator uses an integrated flow sensor to keep a nearly constant oil-to-air ratio over a wide range of flows. With a start point at 0.94 dm3/sec and a maximum flow of 24 dm3/sec, it delivers fine mist consistently, improving wear life and reducing lubricant consumption on variable-demand lines.
Yes. The micro fog approach, combined with inline or modular installation and a closed-bowl design, makes the L72M-2GP-EWN well-suited for extended pipework and layouts that evolve over time. Its Excelon lineage focuses on reliable lubrication for general pneumatic applications across automation environments.
Check for CE readiness for European operations and verify enclosure protection and safety considerations per your facility requirements. While the data highlights general industry-standard compatibility, always confirm with your compliance team and consult the datasheet and installation guide for the exact certification scope for your region.
Maintenance is simplified by the closed-bowl design, guard protection, and robust materials; routine checks focus on seals and bowl cleanliness. The precise oil/air ratio and reduced lubricant waste contribute to lower operating costs, longer component life, and improved uptime, delivering a favorable return on investment in automation environments with frequent lubrication needs.
