Evaluation of measurement results
4.1. Water sensor
4.1.1.
Display in % water saturation
•
If no fluid type is selected, only the water saturation in % is being displayed.
(0...70% Saturation)
The presence of free water is unlikely. A danger of dissolved water in oil does
not
exist!
(70...90% Saturation
)
The presence of free water is
likely
in a low volume. The initiation of actions to reduce
the water content can be recommended!
(90...100% Saturation)
There is water in free form and is therefore a potential danger for the hydraulic and
lubricating system.
The initiation of actions to reduce the water content in the fluid is urgently
necessary!
A
conversion
in
mg/kg
(ppm)
– water content is only
possible
when a
fluid generated
saturation characteristic line is specifically made for your type of fluid.
Saturation characteristic lines for special oils can be provided on request.
4.1.2.
Display of the fluid type and ppm water content
•
If a fluid type is selected, the ppm water content
for this fluid is automatically
calculated from the deposited saturation function and is displayed.
The relation to the detected saturation values and the data, after Karl Fischer method
accounted ppm (mg/kg), is calculated then evaluated by the detected and deposited
100% saturation curve (100% saturation = f(T)) and the simultaneously measured fluid
temperature and is indicated at the display.
Attention: It is essential to select the correct kind of oil, or the display of the water
content will not be equivalent with the effective value for this fluid.
Saturation characteristic curves for special oils can be created and implemented by Eaton
Technologies GmbH. (Add-on program)
