ABSTRACT:
A combination monitoring and regulating instrument for oil field stationary engines or compressors receives oil by gravity in a float chamber having a float operated oil admission and shut-off valve and particle filtering means. Oil from the float chamber is delivered by gravity feed to the crankcase of the associated stationary machine. When the external oil supply is depleted, the resulting movement of the float in the float chamber will produce rotation of a sealed shaft which extends into an explosion-proof chamber of the instrument to move a float position pointer therein, and to simultaneously activate an ignition cut-off switch, or equivalent pneumatic valve means in the explosion-proof chamber to shut down the stationary machine. A convenient oil level sight gage is provided on the instrument.
