Lubrication Technologies is the sole distributor in North America for ILC (Centralized Lubrication Systems) products.

What are the benefits of using an ILC (Centralized Lubrication Systems) Series Progressive System?

A series progressive system meters lubricant to each and every lubrication point sequentially, one after another. Any blockage of a tubing run serving a lubrication point causes the divider valve to stop functioning. Multilne systems or injector systems cannot provide any notification of a blocked point.

There is a visual confirmation of lubricant flow through the divider via a pin that oscillates as lubricant is being pumped. An optional proximity switch can be fitted to the valve which is then connected to a dedicated M12 connector on the pump. In the event of a blockage, the proximity switch notifies the pump of a lubricant flow issue and the pump would show a fault condition on the controller. The fault output may be used to illuminate a light or other warning device in the operator’s cab.

The divider valve configuration is the only system design that allows greasing of all lubrication points in the event of a pump issue.

The pump is capable of pumping NLGI # 2 grade grease. It has a fairly large inlet which we use to affix a cam lock arrangement allowing personnel to refill the pump with a manual pail pump.

Every pump is equipped with a pressure gauge that provides real time monitoring of the system lubricant delivery. In addition the pump has a paddle that rotates and visually confirms its operation. As the paddle rotates, the pumping element, which is mechanically coupled to a cam, meters lubricant at a precise volume of .16 cc per revolution.

Most competitive lubrication system pumps have controllers that allows the selection of a specific run time as well as a dwell time; the time the pump is in idle mode. The ILC pump has a unique ability to be programmed to run for a specific number of pump rotations as opposed to run time. Run time programming does not factor in the wide variation in revolutions a pump will make per minute based on the ambient temperature. Effectively a pump programmed to run for 2 minutes at 20ºF will makes less revolutions than at 85ºF. In practice, this effects delivery volume.

ReliaMAX™ Automatic Systems

The correct amount of lubricant at the correct time

Lubrication Technologies, Inc. ensures  our customers have access to the lubrication dispensing system that best fits the requirements of each application. We offer automatic lubrication systems, for heavy equipment  of all types as well customized systems for manufacturing, transportation, maintenance, and industrial applications. Complete systems and individual components available.

We have designed and installed systems for power plants, paper mills, CNC machines, packaging facilities, food processing equipment, heavy equipment, trucks, and many other applications, both large and small.

The series progressive lubrication systems meter oil or grease (up to NLGI 2) via distribution blocks (divider valves) to lubricate the friction points of the machines. Each divider valve (DPX series)  can serve between 2 and 24 outlets with accurate discharge to each point. Also available DMS series valves which can serve up to 40 points from one assembly. The distribution system is reliable and can be monitored by an electrical switch on the primary divider, as well as visual observation of an indicator pin.

Pumps are available in 12/24 VDC, 115/230VAC, or pneumatic or hydraulically powered. We offer Integrated controllers, separate controllers as well as customized controls utilizing PLC’s, HMI’s, zoned operation and real time monitoring.

Lubrication Technologies, Inc. is the exclusive North American Distributor for ILC.

ILC is renowned worldwide for its centralized grease and oil automatic lubrication systems. Its modern factory is located in at Gorla Minore (Va) – Italy.

Lubricants - Small Cost, Huge Returns

Lubrication Management Programs Protect Your Assets and Save You Money:

Although lubricants make up a mere 3% of the typical maintenance budget; using ineffective products, techniques and applications can have a significant impact on the lubrication-related costs that make up 40% of that budget. A Lubrication Management Program designed by the Technical Consultants at Lubrication Technologies, Inc. can help you target those areas where you see red.

  • Your equipment and components will last longer, run more efficiently and more reliably, and you won’t replace equipment or components prematurely
  • Your labor force will spend less time on routine lubrication-related maintenance and no time on lubricant-related equipment failures
  • You’ll reduce over-all lubricant consumption as well as waste
