This installation guide provides instructions for the installation of perma NOVA and helps in preventing basic mounting
errors. The guide should be used with the operating instructions.
Drawings are only examples. There are many other possibilities for mounting, depending on local conditions.
Disclaimers of corresponding operating instructions apply.
Installation guides do not affect validation of the operating instructions.
• perma NOVA is a single-point lubrication system. You must use a separate lubrication system for each lubrication point.
• The connection thread of perma NOVA is BSP R¼ male thread.
• Replace the application‘s grease tting with a suitable reducer. perma offers a wide assortment of reducers, extensions,
tubes / hoses, brackets and other accessories. See our product catalogue for the entire overview on perma accessories.
• Ensure that the lube po int is prelled with fresh lubricant before installation. perma offers all of its lubricants in 400 g
cartridges for grease guns.
• Select the right lubricant for your application. perma offers a wide variety of standard lubricants for different
applications. See our product catalogue for further information.
• All metal to metal connections must be glued together with Loctite® 243™.
• Fill grease lines and accessories with the same lubricant that is contained in the lubrication system.
• For managing serveral lube points we recommend the use of a lubrication maintenance plan. You can use the free
perma MLP software (https://mlp.perma-tec.com) for online administration.
• Please check our product catalogue for more information on how to select suitable lubricant and activation screw. You
may also download our free perma SELECT APP which is a great tool for the selection of the right lubrication system,
lubricant and discharge period.
Basic guidelines

*
Indoors, perma NOVA can be installed in any mounting position. Outdoors or in moist areas, mounting position must be
vertical (outlet pointing down) or horizontal!
Reducer for thread connection
Direct mounting should be preferred for all lubrication points, to protect the lubrication system against high pressure.
*This position is only possible in dry environments

• Keep connection lines as short as possible and use tubes / hoses with an inside diameter of at least 6 mm.
Keep in mind that tube / hose length and bore diameter of bearing housings affect pressure and discharge period
of the lubrication system.
• For installation of perma NOVA use Mounting bracket 1-point G1/4 female (109685).
• Secure tubes / hoses with suitable fastenings (brackets, cable ties) to protect against damage and tearing.
• Depending on lubricant and ambient temperature, different tube / hose lengths are possible, e. g.
→perma Multipurpose grease SF01: 2 m (+20 °C)
→perma Multipurpose oil SO32: 3 m (+20 °C).

Reducer for thread connection
Remote mounting is recommended if,
• the ambient temperature of the lubrication point is permanently higher than +60 °C
• the lubrication point is exposed to high vibrations
• no direct access to lubrication point is possible due to safety issues
(e. g. removal of protective screens, safety walls or cages)
• it is difcult or dangerous to access the lubrication point
• the lubrication system is exposed to mechanical forces (e. g. falling rocks)

All oil lled perma NOVA come with an integrated oil retaining valve. They can be installed directly on a lubrication brush
without the need for an additional oil valve.
Remote installations of oil lled perma NOVA require an oil retaining valve at the lowest point of the application. This will
prevent oil leakage from the lubrication system.

2. Remove grease nipple or plug screw of connecting thread and check thread size.
3. Insert reducer and install tube / hose and necessary accessory parts.
1. Prior to installation, lubrication point must be cleaned to protect against contamination.

4. Lubrication point, accessory parts and tubes / hoses must be pre-lled with lubricant.
This enables the lubricant to immediately reach the lubrication point.
5. Prell lubrication point and all grease lines for remote installation.
6. Use a tube prell adapter to prell lubrication point and grease lines.

Check counter pressure at lubrication point before installing the lubrication system to guarantee correct function.
Most bearings require 0.5 - 2 bar pressure (without extension tubes / hoses). perma NOVA can be used for these
lubrication points.
Pressure testing
For pressure testing please use perma STAR VARIO with Accessory kit for pressure test (101480).
Be sure to use the same lubricant for both, prelling and LC of perma STAR VARIO.

Pressure test procedure
1. Remove grease nipple.
2. Screw reducer onto lube point and connect pressure testing kit.
3. Connect perma STAR VARIO to the open outlet.
4. Turn machines on to ensure that lube point is in use and measuring of corresponding counter pressure is possible
(Caution: Observe accident prevention regulations).
5. Open stop valve.
6. Push SET button on perma STAR VARIO for approx. 10 seconds
until PU lights up on display to trigger an additional discharge / purge.
7. Watch the pressure on the gauge during the additional discharge. If
pressure exceeds 7.5 bar the lubrication system will shut off automatically.
8. If pressure doesn‘t rise any more during the additional discharge,
max injection pressure has been reached. In order to nd out the
required system pressure you must wait another 5 minutes.
The gauge will then show the system pressure.
9. If system pressure exceeds 2 bar you need to „purge“ the
lube point by using a mechanical grease gun. Proceed with steps
6 and 7.
10. If counter pressure doesn‘t decrease you need to either select a different lubricant or a different lubrication system.
Please ask perma-tec to assist you in this matter.
