EMAX Industrial 7.5HP 3CYL Two Stage 1Ph 26CFM 80 Gal. Air Compressor w/isolator pads - Splash Lube Pump

Splash Pump

Operation

Splash lubrication systems work by using rod dippers that pass through the oil in the crankcase when the pistons are moving and splash the oil up onto the cylinders and pistons to lubricate them. Although this method is effective, it’s not precise. Parts of the pump may not be receiving enough oil. Where there is not enough oil, wear between critical components can become a costly issue… on the other hand, too much oil can also be an issue as well.

Viscosity

Viscosity of the oil becomes important with splash method as well. If the oil is not thick enough, it will not cling to the dippers as needed. So, although effective, it is becoming an outdated method.

History

Traditional splash lubrication systems have been around since the first air compressor was produced.

Belt Drive

Our belt-driven compressors are driven by V belts that allow you to adjust the pump speeds by changing pulley sizes.
