► Alemlube | DPX Inlet Sections

The Starting Point for Reliable Progressive Lubrication Performance

A progressive lubrication system is only as reliable as the point where lubricant enters the network.

Before grease reaches metering valves, divider blocks or critical bearings, it must first pass through the inlet section. If lubricant flow begins poorly, the entire system can suffer. Alemlube DPX Inlet Sections provide the critical entry point that allows grease to enter progressive lubrication circuits efficiently, helping support consistent lubricant delivery throughout the entire system.

Used across manufacturing facilities, transport fleets, agricultural equipment, mobile plant & industrial operations, DPX Inlet Sections play an essential role in building dependable automated lubrication systems that help reduce wear, improve equipment reliability & support preventative maintenance programs.

Businesses installing progressive lubrication systems often utilise products from our DPX Progressive Metering Valves collection. Larger lubrication networks frequently incorporate products from our Manifold range, while maintenance departments focused on safer servicing practices often utilise solutions from our Work Safety Protections collection.

What Are DPX Inlet Sections?

Think of a lubrication system like a highway network.

No matter how well designed the roads are, traffic still needs a reliable entry point.

DPX Inlet Sections serve as the lubricant entry point within progressive lubrication systems, allowing grease to flow from the pump into the distribution network where it can be delivered to multiple lubrication points.

Businesses supporting rotating equipment often utilise products from our Bearings collection, where effective lubricant delivery remains essential for reducing wear & supporting equipment longevity.

Common applications include:

► Progressive lubrication systems
► Automated greasing systems
► Centralised lubrication networks
► Industrial machinery
► Agricultural equipment
► Mobile plant
► Fleet maintenance operations
► Manufacturing facilities
► Processing equipment
► Heavy-duty production assets

These components form an important part of lubrication systems designed to improve consistency while reducing manual servicing requirements.

Why Choose DPX Inlet Sections?

Lubrication systems depend on reliable lubricant flow from start to finish.
