A pre lubrication system is used to fill the engine system and moving parts before the engine starts. In order to reduce the period between starting the engine and pumping the oil through the moving parts. This period causes most of the engine wear.

A pre lubrication pump puts the oil where it is needed before the engine is started, which results to the reduction of the engine wear.

This significantly reduced engine wear results in a considerable life extension. This life extension of the engine combined with the wear reduction lower the operational costs.

Due to modern regulations, especially with respect to emissions, engines have to be shut down more frequently. This increases the number of times engines must be started during their lifetime, making good pre lubrication more necessary.
