Atlas Copco introduce the first automatic lubrication system for light hydraulic breakers

With the ContiLube II micro Atlas Copco are introducing the first automatic lubrication system for machine-operated hydraulic breakers weighing less than 500 kg.

The ContiLube II micro system is directly attached to the adapter plate of the hydraulic breaker and is therefore particularly interesting for rental fleets because the lubrication system remains connected with the hydraulic breaker when the carrier unit is changed.

The ContiLube II micro's casing houses a compact pump which bleeds air all by itself and which only supplies chisel paste if needed. This provides an optimum protection of the hydraulic breaker and warrants that not more chisel paste is consumed than is absolutely necessary for the job.

The operator can easily monitor the chisel paste level inside the cartridge. The screw thread allows the cartridge to be changed without difficulty. Cartridges are filled with 150 g of highly viscose Atlas Copco chisel paste and can be refilled.

For over 15 years heavy hydraulic breakers are furnished with the ContiLube II system and more than 18,000 units are in operation worldwide.
