What is a McCoi?
The McCoi (microcontrolled chainoiler) is
an automatic chain lubrication system, that operates on the Schwaboiler principles and can be used on motorbikes and other vehicles that are chain driven.
The distance is counted on the same
principle as in the Schwaboiler based on a reed relay that does produce pulses which then are processed in a microcontroller and delivers after a certain amount of
distance the motorbike has driven a certain and programmable amount of chain oil.
A major difference is the rain sensor
option. This option allows an automatic oil supply increase in case of rain.
The pump used is designed that way that
oils with different viscosity can be used and ensures always the same amount of oil supply.
The power consumption of that unit in
standby is so low, that it can be connected directly to the battery.
