DPL Progressive Divider with Inductive Control M8

A DPL progressive divider with Inductive Control M8 distributes oil or grease in a controlled manner to multiple lubrication points while also enabling electrical monitoring of the lubrication cycle. The movement of an internal piston is detected by an inductive sensor and converted into an electrical signal. This allows the operation of the progressive divider to be automatically monitored by the machine or lubrication system controller.

This category includes DPL monoblock dividers with 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20 outlets.

In a DPL progressive divider, the lubricant supplied by the pump is distributed by several internal pistons. These pistons move sequentially in a fixed order. The movement of each piston enables the next step in the lubrication cycle.

As a result, the individual metering movements are interconnected. If a line or lubrication point becomes blocked and a piston can no longer move, the rest of the progressive cycle is also interrupted. This principle makes the DPL particularly suitable for systems where correct execution of the lubrication cycle needs to be monitored.

Electrical cycle monitoring with Inductive Control

The main difference compared with a standard DPL divider is the integrated Inductive Control. A proximity sensor is mounted in a composite block. The movement of the piston opens and closes the sensor contact. This piston movement generates an electrical signal that can be used to monitor the operation of the divider.

The sensor can register up to 300 movements per minute. This allows the DPL to be integrated into an automatic cycle monitoring system.

These DPL versions are equipped with Inductive Control with an M8x1 connection. The sensor operates at 6-30 V DC, has a maximum output current of 200 mA and an IP67 protection rating. The sensor housing is made of stainless steel and the sensor block of PET-G.

Straight connection cables in different lengths are available for the M8x1 connection. This allows the divider to be easily connected electrically to the machine controller or centralized lubrication system.
