Manage your lubrication program with the Ultraprobe 401 Digital Grease Caddy Pro and reduce bearing failure.
The Ultraprobe 401 Digital Grease Caddy provides all the data you’ll need to optimize your lubrication program. Whichever lubrication method you may use; time-based/preventive lubrication or condition based lubrication, you’ll find the Ultraprobe 401 system is essential to your program.
The perfect blending of advanced digital technology and data management software provides the ability to review your total lubrication practice, trend successes, note warning signs and have the ability to continually improve your program.
The Ultraprobe 401 Digital Grease Caddy Pro translates ultrasound into the audible range enabling users to hear and recognize bearing sounds while simultaneously viewing decibel levels on a display panel. Users can monitor the amount of lubricant being applied and know when to stop; preventing over-lubrication.
The Ultraprobe 401 Digital Grease Caddy Pro:
• Know when to stop adding lubricant
• Measure the amount of lubricant added
• Trend bearing lubrication data
• Gain insights as to reasons for bearing failures
This amazing digital instrument provides seamless integration of bearing lubrication data into UE Systems renowned Ultratrend Data Management System so users can monitor bearing conditionand lubrication history.
Here’s a small sampling of some of the important data you’ll be able to review:
Bearing housing lubrication capacity
Type of grease used
Baseline dB levels
dB levels before applying grease
dB levels after applying grease
amount of strokes the grease gun used to apply grease
cost of grease
cost analysis
trend bearing condition
Here’s how to prevent bearing failure with Ultrasound Assisted Lubrication:
There are two components to a successful ultrasound assisted lubrication program: a digital inspection instrument such as the Ultraprobe 9000, 10,000 or 15,000 and the 401 Digital Grease Caddy Pro.
As lubrication levels in a bearing fall, friction increases producing a rise in ultrasound levels. Bearings with increases over 8 dB with no change in sound quality are identified as needing lubrication. A lube route is created and baseline data is uploaded to the Digital Grease Caddy Pro.
When lubricant is applied users will know when to stop adding lubricant by observing a drop of decibel levels to the baseline level. The lubrication data can then be stored and added to the bearing’s history file.
