Vickers by Danfoss Target-Pro 2 Analyzer and Sampler Operation Manual V-PP-MC-0002-E

July 2023

110ml Bottle Sampler is designed
for use with the Target-Pro 2 Analyzer.
The bottle sampler
allows users to test fluids in situa-
tions where the analyzer cannot
be connected directly to the
hydraulic circuit. This helps over-
come limits of time and distance,
extending testing capabilities to
all equipment and locations. This
unit accepts both 100ml and
110ml bottles.

The bottle sampler offers the
option of de-aerating fluid sam-
ples before testing with the ana-
lyzer by applying a vacuum to the
chamber holding the sample bot-
tle. The de-aeration feature is only
needed when it is suspected, or
obvious, that air is present in the
fluid sample.

Two cap types are supplied with
the bottle sampler: a blank vacu-
um cap for use when de-aerating
fluid, and a pressure cap with an
anti-vacuum valve for use when
delivering a fluid sample to the
analyzer.

1.

Clean the pump and hose provided with an appropriate
solvent, such as mineral spirits, before taking a sample.
Do not use acetone. Clean sample bottles and associated
products following the instructions on page 13.

2.

Draw at least

80ml of fluid

from the system into the bot-

tle provided. If necessary, use a hand pump.

3.

Insert the

waste fluid hose

in the waste disposable

bottle provided.

4.

Connect the waste fluid hose to the

waste connector

on

the Target-Pro 2. If you are using a hand pump, dis- charge
fluid from the hand pump into the

sample bottle

.

5.

Place the sample bottle into the

bottle sampling unit

.

6.

Connect the bottle sampling unit to the 12-volt DC

power supply

.

If the collected fluid contains air, follow steps 7–10 to de-
aerate the sample. Otherwise, skip to step 11.

Using the De-aeration Option

7.

Fit the

vacuum cap

to the bottle sampling unit.

8.

Switch off the bottle sampling unit, then turn the

selector knob

from Sample to Vacuum; the intermedi-

ate position has no function.

9.

Switch on the bottle sampling unit and leave it running
for several minutes, until all air bubbles have been
removed from the fluid sample.

10.

Switch off the bottle sampling unit; this automatically
vents the chamber to the atmosphere.
