Inline or modular installation allows the Excelon Plus lubricator to slot into existing pipelines or form compact lubrication modules. This reduces retrofit time and lowers installation costs, while enabling scalable lubrication networks across multiple machines. In tight spaces and on expanding lines, the option to install inline or as a modular unit accelerates startup and minimizes production downtime. The result is a flexible, future-proof solution that scales with your automation footprint. Oil fog lubrication is ideal when heavier lubrication is required over short distances, such as large-bore cylinders, air motors, and air tools. It delivers consistent lubrication quality and helps protect moving parts from wear and seizure in high-load applications. This translates to longer component life, fewer unscheduled maintenance events, and more stable process performance. The Excelon Plus design supports reliable operation even as demand fluctuates, reducing lubricant waste and improving cross-system coherence. Flow sensing maintains a nearly constant oil-to-air ratio across a wide range of flows, reducing oil consumption while preserving lubrication quality. This supports tighter process control and lower operating costs in manufacturing lines with varying tool workloads. The unit’s guard bowl and closed design minimize oil splatter and protect operators, contributing to a safer work environment and cleaner plants. Reduced weight and compact form simplify mounting on conveyor guards and in compact electrical panels, while the double safety lock on the bowl prevents accidental spills during maintenance. Durable diecast zinc bodies with a polycarbonate bowl provide robust physical protection and good chemical resistance, while nitrile elastomer seals ensure reliable performance across typical workshop environments. The assembly tolerances and materials are chosen for long life in mixed-air, oil-in-air systems, helping to minimize downtime and optimize service intervals. The operating range accommodates plant air systems, with a -10 to 60 °C temperature window and a maximum inlet pressure of 10 bar, which covers most continental manufacturing environments. The compact dimensions (186 mm tall, 47 mm long, 52 mm wide) and a weight of 0.22 kg support easy installation and flexible mounting wherever space is at a premium. Overall, this lubricator integrates smoothly with inline lubrication networks or modular modules, delivering predictable oil delivery and consistent performance for automation lines.

FAQs

The L82C-3AP-EPN supports in-line installation directly in the compressed-air line or modular mounting in dedicated lubrication blocks. For inline use, connect the 3/8" PTF port to your piping network and secure the bowl with the integrated guard. In modular setups, mount the unit on a frame or within a dedicated lubrication module to simplify multi-point lubrication across a production line.
The unit delivers a nominal flow of 24 dm3/s (51 scfm) with a start flow of 0.5 dm3/s, enabling smooth lubrication across varying operating conditions. It is designed for a maximum inlet pressure of 10 bar and operates in a temperature range of -10 to 60 °C, making it suitable for standard industrial environments.
Yes. The Excelon Plus oil fog lubrication is intended for heavier lubrication needs over short distances, which makes it well suited for large bore cylinders, air motors, and air tools. The oil fog approach provides robust lubrication at start-up and during high-load cycles, improving component life and reducing wear-related downtime.
Maintenance focuses on bowl integrity and seal condition. The guarded closed-bowl design minimizes spills, while the durable diecast zinc body and polycarbonate bowl resist typical shop-floor exposure. Routine checks should include bowl locking integrity, seal wear, and ensuring the 3/8" port remains clear to maintain consistent oil delivery.
The Excelon Plus line is CE-compliant, aligning with European safety standards for pneumatic lubrication devices. While exact certifications beyond CE are not listed in the data, its design emphasizes safety features such as a guarded bowl and robust materials suitable for industrial environments.
