Once the AGS unit is activated and the initial pressure is built up, the unit will dispense grease until the bearing casing is full. It will maintain the internal pressure even if the unit is switched off. In cases where the unit is connected to a running motor, the lubrication will shut off when the equipment it is lubricating is stopped and re-start when the equipment is started again.
