Sample Lube Room Layout - and what you'll need to achieve it
1. Spectrum Wall Chart
Spectrum laminated wall charts feature a re-writable surface, allowing facility teams to assign specific colors to individual lubricants. Using a felt-tip marker, lubricant descriptions and viscosities can be clearly marked alongside the selected color. To maintain consistency and avoid cross-contamination, each designated color should be used exclusively for its corresponding lubricant throughout the facility.
2. Spectrum Tags & Labels
Spectrum tags and labels offer a quick and efficient way to identify lubricants, containers, lubrication points, and equipment. Each tag can be marked with essential information using a felt-tip marker or customized Spectrum label, then sealed beneath a protective laminate to preserve clarity and cleanliness. The system supports fully personalized labeling, with options for color coding, tailored text, and barcoding to meet your specific operational needs.

Fire Suppression Kit
To maintain compliance with strict fire safety regulations, Trico offers a Fire Safety Compliance Kit. The standard PVC hose, underneath the tanks, are replaced with 1" NPT fittings and hydraulic hose that connects to a fusible link valve with spring activated handle. If the temperature reaches 165° F, the hand is automatically triggered and shuts off any possible leakage of fluid from the tank.
Liquid Level Gauge Retro-Fit Kit
Convert the three viewports on the Spectrum Bulk Oil Storage Systems with the Liquid Level Gauge Retro-Fit Kit. The kit provides all the necessary parts to install the Liquid Level Gauge to the 65-gallon tanks. It allows for easy viewing of the oil level. Each kit comes with two liquid level gauges for one Spectrum Bulk Oil Storage System.
4. EZI-Action Drum Pumps
EZI-Action Drum Pumps offer a convenient and reliable solution for dispensing various liquids. Each pump includes a safety strap that securely locks the handle when not in use. When paired with color-coded safety straps and compatible fluid handling containers, this system helps prevent cross-contamination and ensures the correct lubricant is applied to the appropriate equipment.
5. Spectrum Oil Containers
Spectrum Oil Containers provide a highly effective solution for protecting fluids from harmful contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture. Positioned between bulk storage and top-off application points, they serve a critical role in the lubrication supply chain—addressing what experts identify as one of the most frequent sources of contamination in machinery maintenance.
6. Spectrum Grease Identification Products
This identification system utilizes color-coded grease fitting caps, washers, and grease gun bands to help ensure the correct lubricant is applied to the designated location. The bands are designed to fit securely over standard grease guns and stay firmly in place once installed, minimizing the risk of misapplication.
Opto-Matic Color Bands & Optional System Add-Ons
Opto-Matic color collars fit securely over the upper casting of Trico oilers, providing a simple and effective way to identify lubricant types. By matching color-coded collars with corresponding lubricant dispensing containers—such as those in the Spectrum system; facilities can help prevent cross-contamination and ensure accurate lubricant application.
