Oil supply stations provide a centralised lubrication source for machines that require continuous or controlled oil delivery. They support stable lubrication conditions by circulating oil, filtering contaminants and enabling monitoring of key parameters.
TRCI supports selection and specification of oil supply stations based on your equipment type, oil grade, flow requirements, cleanliness targets and installation constraints—helping improve reliability and reduce maintenance effort.
Oil supply stations are centralised lubrication units that store, condition and deliver oil to equipment such as bearings, gear units and large drives. Depending on the design, they can provide continuous circulation, intermittent supply or controlled dosing to multiple points.
Typical stations include a reservoir, pump(s), filtration, instrumentation and safety components. Selection depends on oil viscosity, required flow/pressure, cleanliness targets, operating temperature and the number of lubrication points to be served.
The reservoir provides oil volume and dwell time for air release and settling. Options can include heaters, breathers and level control depending on system requirements (configuration-dependent).
Pumps deliver oil at the required flow and pressure to lubrication points. Selection considers duty cycle, backpressure, viscosity and redundancy needs (selection-dependent).
Filters help remove particles that accelerate wear and damage bearings and gears. Correct filter selection supports cleanliness targets and helps stabilise oil performance (application-dependent).
Depending on heat load and operating environment, cooling modules can help maintain oil viscosity and protect components by controlling temperature (system-dependent).
Monitoring can include pressure gauges/switches, temperature sensors, level indicators and filter condition monitoring. These signals support early fault detection and predictive maintenance (configuration-dependent).
Oil supply stations are used where continuous or controlled oil lubrication is required and where oil cleanliness and temperature stability directly impact reliability.
Share the details below and we’ll recommend the best-fit station configuration, sizing and monitoring options:
An oil supply station delivers controlled oil flow and supports conditioning (filtration, monitoring, temperature control), helping maintain stable lubrication conditions compared to manual top-ups.
Yes—many stations are designed to feed multiple points. The final configuration depends on flow, distances, backpressure and required control.
Most systems include filtration options. Correct filter selection depends on oil type, target cleanliness and contamination sources.
Not always. Cooling depends on heat load, environment and the equipment’s thermal behaviour. We can recommend the right approach based on your conditions.
Equipment type, oil grade, flow/pressure, temperature range, cleanliness targets, number of points and monitoring needs.
