Diaphragm seal injector
A lubricant injector includes a housing and a metering section attached to the housing. The housing includes a body and a metering cylinder extending from the body. The metering section includes a diaphragm disposed within the metering cylinder. The diaphragm forms a static seal between the metering cylinder and a lubricant pathway that extends through the body, and the diaphragm defines a metering chamber for measuring a volume of lubricant to be applied during a lubrication cycle. A retaining member secures the diaphragm within the metering cylinder.
Lubrication system and method of making the same
A lubrication system for providing lubrication to equipment is disclosed herein. Generally, the lubrication system includes a lubrication supply container, a lubrication pump, a conduit for providing the lubricant to the oilfield pump, and a control system for setting the operating parameters of the lubrication system. The lubrication system can also include a sensing device for measuring various operational aspects of the equipment and adjusting the amount of lubrication responsive to data measured by the sensing device.
