Description
Bijur Delimon – Meter Unit FB-5: Extra, Extra Fast Flow, British Thread Tee Type
L. Dewitt's SKU #: B8730 | Mfr Part #: B8730The Bijur Delimon B8730 Meter Unit (Type FB-5) is a precision oil proportioning device for Single Line Resistance (SLR) cyclic lubrication systems. The FB type features a 1/8 NPT inlet and a 1/8 BSPT outlet, making it the go-to tee-type unit for systems that mix American NPT supply lines with British Standard Pipe bearing connections. It delivers "Extra, Extra Fast" metered oil to the bearing point.
Regulated Extra, Extra Fast Flow
As a FB-5 model, this unit delivers the Extra, Extra Fast flow rate — the maximum standard output available. Reserved for the most demanding bearing points: heavily loaded, large-diameter bearings and high-speed shafts where the highest possible lubrication volume is critical to preventing premature failure.
Cyclic System Integrity
An integrated 5 lb check valve ensures one-directional oil flow (direction indicated by arrow on body) and prevents lines from draining during the pump's off cycle. For cyclic lubrication systems only. Not compatible with continuous-flow pumps.
