The following list contains detailed descriptions of products and services provided by Coastal Engineering Services:
1. Automated Lubrication Systems Design & Supply ( Oil & Grease )
                      
Coastal Engineering Services can provide automated centralized lubrication system designs for both grease and oil applications. Whether it's oil for chain and sprocket lube or grease for bearings and open gears, we can provide a workable design. Your application may be a small system with only a few bearing points or a large widespread system with many points. Either way, Coastal Engineering can come up with the right design using the correct products along with properly sized lube supply and distribution lines. We are familiar with and have access to many product lines including Lubriquip, Lincoln, Graco, Oil-Rite, Purgex, Pulsarlube, etc. Besides these lines, we are familiar with Farval, Groenveld and others. Give us an application and we'll come up with a reliable and cost-effective design for you!
Electric Motor Lubrication or Hard-To-Access Bearings - Pulsalube Programmable Single Point Lubricators for Oil or Grease
Re-useable and re-fillable. Available in battery-powered or external power source (i.e. 120VAC with adaptor). Explosion proof dispensers are also available in Class I, Division II, Groups C & D. Sizes available are 125 ml, 250 ml and 500 ml with grease and 500 ml only with oil. You can specify the brand and type of grease you want and therefore maintain continuity with your present grease used and avoid and cross contamination.

2. Mobile Lubrication Truck Design & Supply 
               
               
Coastal Engineering Services has designed several lube trucks for the mining and construction industries as well as for heavy  equipment dealers. We have designed trucks for Nova Construction, Diamond Equipment, Irving Equipment and Municipal Contracting as well as Atlantic Tractors and Equipment (Caterpillar), Wallace Equipment (John Deere), Wilson Equipment (Komatsu) and Strongco (Hitachi). Mining customers include Voisey's Bay Nickel, Little Narrows Gypsum, National Gypsum and Georgia-Pacific.
Working through a local contractor, the truck can be assembled and tested prior to delivery to the customer. Designs include both open and closed trucks with hydraulic-driven, electric-driven, diesl-driven or air-driven equipment and components such as compressors, lube pumps, hose reels, generators, etc. We will design a truck to suit your needs based on your preferences. Truck designs include GVWR and GAWR compliance with road and highway axle scaling requirements.  We can design a lube trailer if wanted as well as portable lube skids which can be carried on a flat deck truck and removed when not neeeded. Also, for the in-plant environment, we can design a portable lube cart using, for example, an Ez-Go electric cart. Give us the opportunity and we'll design and build a portable lube system for you!  
 3. Plant Audit of Lubricant Handling & Storage Practices
                       
Coastal Engineering can work with your lubrication personnel providing recommendations to improve lubricant handling and storage practices. This will help you to prevent lubricant contamination, thus reducing risk to your expensive plant operating equipment. We can audit your plant and come up with cost-effective solutions and proactive recommendations to improve housekeeping, lubricant storage, lubricant transfer, filtration, etc. Did you know that its costs 10 times more to remove contaminants from oil than it does to prevent them from entering in the first place? 
IFH modular style oil storage racks c/w pump, filters, breathers, etc.
These containers have a 65 USG capacity and are available in a variety of configurations.

Coastal Engineering Services can provide you with a "rating" of your plant's lubrication program performance. This rating is based on two sources; one being the responses from your maintenance and lubrication personnel to a questionaire completed by Coastal Engineering and the second being a plant inspection of lubrication practices and methods also done by Coastal Engineering. Based on these two parameters, a fair and realistic score or rating can be obtained. If necessary, based on this rating, we can provide recommendations for improvements. A follow-up audit 3 to 6 months later, is recommended. The same procedure as described above would be done, a new score or rating obtained. By comparing the first rating with the most recent, the progress you have made in your lubrication program can be measured. Using this format, you have a means of measuring your progress which can be paralled with your plant equipments' performance and reliability; thus providing a corellation and justification for your proactive money expenditures. We know that with an improved lubrication program, positive results will follow.
We want to work along with your lubricant technicans as a partner and as someone you can rely on for advise and problem-solving. Our efforts are to save you money, period. A small investment can mean enormous savings ( an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure)! Let us audit your plant today so you can start saving your profits and increase your plant equipment's reliability!
4. Lubrication System Trouble Shooting & On-Site Inspection
Problem solving - That's what we want to do for you. Tell us your pain and we'll do what we can to relieve it! Today, plant operators and maintenance people are looking for problem solvers; people who can assess a problem and come up with a solution, either with the application of a new product or with a refinement to an existing method/system or the introduction of a new method/system.
Coastal Engineering Services has the experience to do inspections of centralized lubrication systems detecting possible problems or making recommendations to improve their function.                                                             
We want to take on your challenges, help you solve problems and reduce stess so that you can focus on other plant operation improvements rather than putting out fires. Let us help solve your problems, reduce costs and improve equipment reliability today!

ASSALUB MKII Grease Meter
     
                                        
Grease Meter which can be used with grease guns of any type to accurately measure the amount of grease dispensed. Unit can be calibrated and measures in various units such as grams, ounces, etc. 
See pdf file below for picture and info
 
ASSALUB Grease Flow Grease Monitor                       ASSALUB Manual Grease Monitoring System
 
                     
ASSALUB LubeMon grease flow monitor is designed to provide positive feedback that grease flow has occurred at critical bearings. As grease flows through the monitor it's internal gears rotate and an electrical signal is sent to the customer's PLC or Assalub's controller indicating flow. If flow is not detected by the monitor, then a fault or alarm can be activated. The monitor is available in stainless steel or aluminum construction. The correct cable connectors and wiring is available as well. 
See pdf file below for more info 
ASSALUB LubeRight is a computerized manual lubrication syste. The grease meter is pre-programmed for each lube point so that only the specified amount of lubricant is delivered to the zerc by the operator during each greasing event. This information is stored and downloaded on the Lubetech's PC providing an ongoing record and history of lubrication for each point.

   LUMAX SuperLuber Cordless Grease Gun Model LX-1163
 
              
 
   12V cordless grease gun c/w carrying case, 2 batteries, battery charger, whip hose and shoulder
   strap. Variable speed throttle. Bulk load or tubes. 6000 psi. Over pressure relief valve recirculates
   grease internally.
   See pdf file below for picture and info
 
   UVLM Ultra-Lube acoustic greasing equipment
 
          
  The Ultra-Lube attaches directly to the operator's grease gun. The transmitter sends a signal via the
  monitor to a set of headphones. The vibration or "noise" can be monitored as grease is being injected to
  the bearing. Adequate lubrication is achieved when the normal level of "noise" is reached. The Ultra-Lube
  reduces overlubrication simply and effectively and therefore extends bearing life.
