ISO 6301-1 specifies which characteristics of compressed-air lubricators are to be included in the supplier's literature.

It also specifies product-marking requirements for lubricators.

ISO 6301-1 is applicable to compressed-air lubricators constructed from light alloys (e.g. aluminium), zinc die-cast alloys, brass, steel and plastic, with a maximum rated pressure of 1 600 kPa (16 bar ) or less and a maximum rated temperature of 80 °C or less.
