Automatic lubrication pump series expansion with first-in-class
reliability
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 27, 2017--
Graco Inc.(NYSE: GGG), a leading manufacturer of fluid handling
equipment, is pleased to announce the launch of its Electric Grease
Jockey automatic lubrication system. The Electric Grease Jockey system
stands up to the harsh conditions of the trucking and fleet industry.
The system’s new lubrication pump features integrated controls that
provide system health and status, low level alerts and motor burnout
protection. The distribution meters were also overhauled, allowing the
entire electric-powered system to reliably deliver NLGI #2 grease.
Made in the USA with global components, this road-tested pump features
an integrated low-level sensor that automatically alerts the operator
when lubricant is low. The compact design and single mainline lubricant
distribution system allow for consistent and efficient installations and
service inspections.
“This pump is a unique offering on the market, with new features that
deliver first-in-class reliability,” said Dan Jensen, Graco’s
Lubrication Equipment Division Global Product Marketing Manager. “We
engineered an impact, UV and chemical-resistant system that is protected
from motor burnout and provides valuable feedback to fleet managers
while reliably and consistently delivering NLGI #2 grease – a tough pump
for a tough industry.”
To see the Electric Grease Jockey system in action, visit booth #2658 at
the upcoming North American Commercial Vehicle (NACV) show from Sept.
25-28, 2017. For more information or to contact a Graco account manager
