The role of the lube oil pump

Lubrication is to form a layer of oil film between the contact surfaces moving with each other, so that the direct friction between the two surfaces, generally known as dry friction, is transformed into friction between molecules inside the oil, that is, liquid friction, or friction between oil films.
Lubricating oil pumps are mainly used to convey lubricating oil in lubrication systems in various mechanical equipment. The AC lubricating oil pump is installed vertically on the top plate of the main oil tank, sucks oil through the filter screen at the bottom of the oil pump, and the pump discharges oil to the main oil pump inlet pipe and through the oil cooler to the bearing lubricating oil mother pipe, the pump is controlled by a pressure switch and a three-position switch installed in the control room, and the outlet is equipped with a flap check valve to prevent the oil from flowing back from the system.
Lubrication can reduce wear and wear: oil film contact is formed between the surfaces of moving parts to reduce wear and power lossCooling cooling: heat is taken away through the circulation of lubricating oil and sintering is prevented. Lubrication also uses circulating oil to rinse the surface of the part, removing metal chips that have been peeled off by wear. Lubrication can rely on the oil film to improve the sealing effect of parts. It can be adsorbed on the surface of the part to prevent contact with water, air, acids and harmful gases with the part. Therefore, it can prevent rust and corrosion.
Almost all relatively moving contact surfaces on equipment require lubrication, and equipment lubrication is one of the important means to prevent and delay part wear and other forms of failure. According to statistics, more than half of the equipment failures are caused by poor lubrication and oil deterioration.
When the lubricating oil pump does not discharge oil or the amount of oil discharge is small, it may be because the suction height is too high and exceeds the rating, or the suction pipeline leaks, and the direction of rotation is not correct. It can increase the oil absorption surface or reduce the pipe resistance. Check whether each joint is leaking or leaking, and add asbestos and other sealing materials to seal it. Correct the steering in the direction indicated by the pump.
