MTA-150 Thin Oil Lubrication Pump
The MTA-150 Thin Oil Lubrication Pump is the low-cost thin-oil pump in the range, for medium and small machinery. Available with a microcomputer option for on-pump timing. Pressure, discharge and reservoir figures are confirmed against your point count at the time of order.
How it works
Built for medium and small machinery where cost per circuit matters: CNC machines and machining centres, injection moulding machines, production lines, textile and woodworking machinery.
The liquid level switch and the optional pressure switch connect to the host controller, so actuation, interval and alarm are handled as one integrated function rather than as three separate ones.
With the microcomputer option, run and interval times are set freely on the pump itself. An abnormal condition raises a buzzer and an output, with both NO and NC interfaces provided, so the machine can stop or flag on a lubrication fault.

Discharge, pressure and reservoir figures are not published for this family. We confirm them against your point count at the time of enquiry.
Dimensions
Ask us for the dimensioned drawing before machining a mounting.
Installation notes
The MTA-150 ships sized to the circuit it is quoted for: discharge, pressure and reservoir are all confirmed against your point count at order time rather than picked off a table, so specifying one starts with telling us the machine and the number of lube points rather than reading a drawing. The level switch is fitted as standard and wires straight into the host control.
The microcomputer option, when specified, sets run and interval on the pump itself rather than the host controller, with a buzzer and an NO/NC output for an abnormal condition. Where the circuit needs a published discharge figure to size against rather than one confirmed to order, a TZ or HL pump is the better fit.
Before you order
- Thin oil only. Confirm reservoir size and discharge with us against your point count before ordering.
- Where the circuit needs a published discharge figure to size against, specify a TZ or HL instead.
Warranty
One year against manufacturing defect from date of invoice.
How it pairs
The MTA-150 Thin Oil Lubrication Pump is commonly specified alongside the RH-2 Inspecting Volumetric Distributor, the RH3 Type Volumetric Distributor, and the TK Adjustable Resist-Type Proportion Distributor. That is the same recommendation carried on its own datasheet, not a generic same-category suggestion.
Used on
Industry applications
Ways, ball screws and LM guides on machining centres, turning centres and routers: metered oil to every point, and a wireless handwheel for the setter.
Tie bars, toggle pins and platens on horizontal and vertical machines: oil or semi-fluid grease, metered per point and re-metered every cycle.
Frequently asked questions
What lubricant does the MTA-150 pump?
Thin oil only. For grease, specify a GM, PJ, AP, ZD or ZJ pump instead.
Why aren't the MTA-150's pressure and discharge figures published?
The manufacturer doesn't publish them for this family. We confirm discharge, pressure and reservoir size against your point count at the time of enquiry, so ordering one starts with a conversation about the circuit rather than a catalogue lookup.
Does the MTA-150 include a timer?
Not by default: it runs off the host controller's own signal. The optional microcomputer adds free time setting on the pump itself, for a circuit that needs to run and interval independently of the machine control.
