EXCELON 74 Micro-Fog and Oil-Fog Lubricators 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" Port Sizes q EXCELON design allows in-line or modular installation q Quick release bayonet bowl q Highly visible, prismatic liquid level indicator lens q Flow sensor design provides a nearly constant oil/air ratio over a wide range of air flows q All around (360) visibility of the sight-feed dome simplifies installation and adjustment q Modular installations with EXCELON 72, 73, and 74 series can be made to suit particular applications

Use Micro-Fog models in applications with one or more points of lubrication. Use Oil-Fog models to lubricate a single tool, cylinder, or other air driven device.

Warning
These products are intended for use in industrial compressed air systems only. Do not use these products where pressures and temperatures can exceed those listed under Technical Data. Before using these products with fluids other than those specified, for non-industrial applications, life-support systems, or other applications not within published specifications, consult Norgren. Through misuse, age, or malfunction, components used in fluid power systems can fail in various modes. The system designer is warned to consider the failure modes of all component parts used in fluid power systems and to provide adequate safeguards to prevent personal injury or damage to equipment in the event of such failure. System designers must provide a warning to end users in the system instructional manual if protection against a failure mode cannot be adequately provided. System designers and end users are cautioned to review specific warnings found in instruction sheets packed and shipped with these products.
