Hale QLF/QSF/QSG Small Auto Lube Kit

A Hale Small Auto Lube Kit is a specialized lubrication system designed for use with Hale fire pumps. The kit is designed to automatically deliver a small amount of lubricant to the pump’s bearings at regular intervals, helping to ensure that the pump operates smoothly and efficiently.

The Small Auto Lube Kit includes a pump and a reservoir that holds the lubricant, as well as tubing and fittings that connect the system to the pump’s bearings. The pump is activated by an electronic controller that can be programmed to deliver lubricant at specific intervals, depending on the needs of the system.

The Small Auto Lube Kit is an important component of a fire pump system because it helps ensure that the pump operates reliably and efficiently, reducing the likelihood of breakdowns or other issues that could compromise the safety of the system. Proper installation, maintenance, and testing of the Auto Lube Kit is essential to ensure that it is functioning correctly and providing reliable operation of the fire pump system. Regular inspection and maintenance of the fire pump system can help identify issues with the lubrication system and other components before they become major problems.

Here are some reasons why a Hale Small Auto Lube Kit might be installed:

1. Improved Efficiency: Proper lubrication helps reduce friction and wear on the pump’s bearings, which can improve the efficiency of the pump system and reduce the likelihood of breakdowns.
2. Reduced Maintenance: An Auto Lube Kit can help reduce the need for manual lubrication of the pump’s bearings, reducing maintenance requirements and associated costs.
3. Extended Lifespan: Proper lubrication can help extend the lifespan of the pump’s bearings, which can help reduce the need for replacement parts and associated costs.
4. Compliance: Some fire protection codes and standards may require the installation of an Auto Lube Kit as a safety measure.

It is important to consult with a qualified technician or service provider with experience working on fire pump systems to evaluate the need for an Auto Lube Kit and determine the best solution for the system. Regular inspection, maintenance, and testing of fire pump systems can help identify issues before they become major problems, reducing the likelihood of downtime and ensuring reliable operation in the event of a fire.
