time the Klübermatic is exchanged or during routine inspections. With the reduction in manual lubrication, also comes a reduction in the risk associated with accessing lubrication points that are in con ned spaces, hard to reach locations, or exposed areas of the vessel. INSTALLATION Correct installation and lubricant choice are essential for maximizing the bene ts of the Klübermatic system. Each Klübermatic installation begins with a vessel survey by the Klüber and perma-tec engineering team and continues with installation support and periodic operational reviews. During the survey, the team will identify the opportunities for automatic lubricators, the installation design, and the lubrication requirements. In the engine room, lubrication points on main and auxiliary mechanical systems that can be tted with Klübermatics include lube oil transfer pumps, air compressors, feed water pumps, engine cooling pumps, waste treatment systems, air supply fans, hydraulic motors for controllable pitch propellers, portable water pumps, and re suppression systems. ON DECKOn deck applications for the Klübermatic largely depend on the purpose of the vessel and the equipment included. Lubrication points on deck cranes, winches, capstans and fairleads can bene t from reliable, routine lubrication. Where lubrication is a regulatory requirement, the use of Klübermatics will help ensure the vessel remains in compliance. An example is the USGC requirement to lubricate lifeboat davits on a monthly basis. A survey of the vessel by the Klüber and perma-tec team will identify the applications where Klübermatics can bene t your operation. Klüber and perma-tec installation and after sales support will ensure the systems function as designed.TURNKEY SOLUTION , PEACE OF MINDThe unique features of the Klübermatic program include controlled and metered delivery of the correct lubricant, automatic lubrication systems engineered to meet the speci c requirements of the application, and the combined installation and after sales support by the combined engineering team. Klübermatics provide the operator with peace of mind that deck machinery and winches will not fail during critical operations such as docking, cargo handling, maneuvering in restricted channels, or at sea during inclement weather because of improper lubrication. www.marinelink.com MN 33MN Feb2013 Layout 32-42.indd 33MN Feb2013 Layout 32-42.indd 332/1/2013 12:17:17 PM2/1/2013 12:17:17 PM
