One aspect of the invention provides a lubricator device for dispensing a lubricant to a lubrication point of a machine. The device includes an electric dispensing mechanism including an electronic control circuit. The control circuit includes an RF receiver for receiving control signals, e.g. signals incorporating a lubrication schedule to be adopted by the control circuit, and an RF transmitter for transmitting operational signals incorporating an ID code of the device and at least one operational parameter of the device. Such at least one operational parameter may include one indicative of an amount of lubricant dispensed or one indicative of an error condition. Another aspect of the invention provides a lubrication system including a plurality of lubricator devices, as referred to, and a computer in communication with them for monitoring their operation via operational signals received from them and for controlling their operation via control signals transmitted to them.
Selon un aspect, linvention concerne un dispositif de lubrification pour distribuer un lubrifiant à un point de lubrification dune machine. Ledit dispositif comprend un mécanisme de distribution électrique comprenant un circuit de commande électronique. Le circuit de commande comprend un récepteur RF destiné à recevoir des signaux de commande, par exemple des signaux incorporant une programmation de lubrification à adopter par le circuit de commande, et un émetteur RF pour émettre des signaux opérationnels incorporant un code ID du dispositif et au moins un paramètre fonctionnel pouvant comprendre un indicateur de quantité de lubrifiant distribuée ou une condition derreur. Selon un autre aspect de linvention, un système de lubrification comprend une pluralité de dispositifs de lubrification et un ordinateur en communication avec lesdits dispositifs pour surveiller leur fonctionnement via des signaux fonctionnels provenant de ces derniers et pour commander leur fonctionnement via des signaux de commande qui leur sont transmis.
