PCT No. PCT/FI89/00116 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 12, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 12, 1990 PCT Filed Jun. 15, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO89/12779 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 28, 1989.An assembling series of distribution and measurement units for a lubricating oil system for machinery having several bearings includes at least one distribution beam (1-3) equipped with a longitudinal channel and input connections (11,16). Each beam (1-3) includes two or more output connections (9) placed at right-angles to the channel for communication with flowmeters (22) and other components. The series achieves lubricating oil distribution and provides measurement units for various applications. The series reduces in-situ pipe and construction work and replaces it with standardized installation work. The series in accordance with the invention includes at least two differently-sized distribution beams (1-3) and at least two differently-sized feed beams (5-8) to feed several distribution beams (1-3). The differently-sized distribution beams (1-3) are equipped with a varying number of output connections (9), which are each formed of a surface equipped with a ring gasket, against which the gasket surface of the component to be attached is compressed, and the series includes a so-called blind plate (4) or other standard plug to close surplus output connections (9).
