It threads in at M8x1.0 on one end and 1\/8 inch BSPT on the other, allowing it to meter and distribute lubricant at a controlled rate within a cyclic lubrication circuit. This unit is installed by maintenance technicians and lubrication specialists working on industrial and commercial machinery. At just 0.03 pounds, it is a compact component that fits into tight lube-line configurations without adding bulk to the assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DCM-4M fits into central lubrication systems that operate on a cyclic delivery cycle. It is suitable for use with both electric-driven and manual pump configurations, making it a versatile choice across a range of machine lubrication setups. Typical applications include automated lube lines on production equipment, machine tools, and similar industrial machinery where consistent, metered lubricant delivery is critical to bearing and component life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM8x1.0 male thread on one end for direct mounting into lube system ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/8 inch BSPT thread connection for compatibility with standard British pipe fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeters lubricant delivery in cyclic lubrication circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with both electric and manual cyclic pump systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.03 pounds for installation in compact or space-constrained lube manifolds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with all cyclic system electric and manual pumps in central lubrication system applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by a qualified maintenance technician or lubrication system specialist. Before servicing any lubrication line, relieve system pressure and shut down the associated pump to prevent unintended lubricant discharge. Use appropriate thread sealant compatible with the lubricant being used, and do not overtighten the threaded connections to avoid damaging the meter unit body or mating ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size (Inlet)\u003c\/strong\u003e: M8x1.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type (Outlet)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8 inch BSPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Central lubrication systems, cyclic electric and manual pump circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: TRICO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DCM-4M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TRICO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67917235192114,"sku":"DCM-4M","price":26.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5f2e9993cad81fc9a9424bf0c6f2fffb.jpg?v=1791261982","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/trico-dcm-4m-lubrication-system-meter-unit-m8x1-0","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
