An assembling series of distribution and measurement units for a lubricating oil system for machinery having several bearings includes at least one distribution beam (1-3) equipped with a longitudinal channel and input connections (11,16). Each beam (1-3) includes two or more output connections (9) placed at right-angles to the channel for communication with flowmeters (22) and other components. The series achieves lubricating oil distribution and provides measurement units for various applications. The series reduces in-situ pipe and construction work and replaces it with standardized installation work. The series in accordance with the invention includes at least two differently-sized distribution beams (1-3) and at least two differently-sized feed beams (5-8) to feed several distribution beams (1-3). The differently-sized distribution beams (1-3) are equipped with a varying number of output connections (9), which are each formed of a surface equipped with a ring gasket, against which the gasket surface of the component to be attached is compressed, and the series includes a so-called blind plate (4) or other standard plug to close surplus output connections (9).
An assembling series of distribution and measurement unit for a lubricating oil system for machinery consisting of several bearings, said series includes at least two distribution beams of different sizes, each beam being equipped with a longitudinal channel and input connections, which has two or more output connections located at right-angles to the channel for flowmeters and other components, and the purpose of said series is to achieve a lubricating oil distribution and measurement unit for various cases, characterized in that the longitudinal channels are otherwise unrestricted and the series includes at least two feed beams of different sizes, said feed beams being connected to said distribution beams and extending in a transverse direction in relation to said distribution beam to feed the distribution beams and which variously-sized distribution beams are equipped with a plurality of output connections, each defined by a opening in which each opening is surrounded by a gasket against which a gasket surface of the component to be connected is compressed, and said series includes a blind plate or other standard plug to close surplus output connections wherein said distribution and feed beams include attachment holes spaced in said beams, wherein the spacing of the output connections and the attachment holes is standard in most of the distribution beams of the series and that the input connection can be staggered between two output connections on the opposite side of the beam, wherein both the distribution and feed beams have a generally squared cross sectional shape defining a central passageway which forms the oil channel and an end hole of the beams of which are equipped with an input connection plug or feed pipe connector for installation and in both of which a similar output connection is used.
