Huashun oil-air lubrication systems use a main station + substation structure design.

For industrial applications with a large number of lubrication points, the system may require:

One substation
Multiple substations

The substation plays an important role in the lubrication process by mixing lubricant and compressed air to create a stable oil-air flow for delivery to the lubrication points.

Main Function of the Substation

The oil-air lubrication substation is responsible for:

Receiving lubricant from the main station
Receiving compressed air supply
Mixing oil and air into a controlled oil-air mixture
Distributing the oil-air flow to multiple lubrication points

This design improves lubrication efficiency and helps ensure stable lubricant delivery throughout the system.

Typical Components Inside an Oil-Air Lubrication Substation

Under normal configurations, a Hua Shun oil-air lubrication substation may include the following components:

Progressive Distributor

Controls accurate lubricant dosage and distribution to each lubrication point.

Proximity Switch

Monitors the operating status of the progressive distributor and helps detect abnormal conditions.

Oil-Air Mixing Block

Mixes lubricant and compressed air to generate a stable oil-air flow.

Pressure Switch

Monitors system pressure and provides alarm or control signals when pressure abnormalities occur.

Pressure Gauge

Displays real-time pressure values for convenient monitoring and inspection.

Solenoid Directional Valve

Controls the switching and flow direction of compressed air or lubricant within the system.

Air Filter

Removes impurities and moisture from compressed air to maintain clean and stable system operation.

2/2-Way Solenoid Valve

Controls air or lubricant flow within the lubrication circuit.

Pressure Regulating Valve

Adjusts and stabilizes compressed air pressure according to system requirements.

Throttle Valve

Controls airflow rate and helps optimize oil-air mixture delivery.

Designed for Stable and Reliable Lubrication

The coordinated operation of these components allows the substation to provide:

Precise lubricant delivery
Stable oil-air mixing
Reliable pressure control
Intelligent monitoring capability

This helps improve lubrication performance while reducing equipment wear and maintenance requirements.

Flexible Configuration for Different Applications

Depending on:

The number of lubrication points
Equipment type
Operating conditions
Industry requirements

Huashun can customize substation configurations to better match customer applications and production environments.
